okay, i've been planning to do this for a while. i've added pics where possible, so bear with me. feel free to comment with your opinions and/or add anything esle that would make my ideas better. here we go-
- Development of an 'An Nasiriyah' map.

sat images of part of the city, with teh second showing were the map would largely be based on - important areas being the river, bridge, highway, river banks and hospital.

this will entail more than just a development of a map though. It will obviosuly be Marine Corps against the Insurgents. However instead of an insurgency game mode, it would be an AAS type, with the USMC advancing and the insurgents defending objectives.
Marines would also need a new 'skin'. being that in 2003, they were in MOPP suits, rather than just MARPAT fatigues.

Another development for this map would need to be the AAV7 amtrac and the CH46 Sea Knight. the ch46 was a suggestion all of its own, but would be sick as hell in nasiriyah.

i'm guessing that nasiriyah would be the same size as Al Basrah, to give sea knights and maybe a cobra space to fly. other vehicles would include humvees, LAVs, amtracs and perhaps an abrams. area attack assets would be artillery...as the marines had gun bunnys to drop some rounds. insurgents would not totally be left on their ***, they'd have the shilka (??) AA gun emplacement and more RPG kits available.
and for some extra things on what this map would 'be like' - Michelle Malkin » Inside OIF’s Bloodiest Battle
okay, second suggestion.
-development of the Mk. 19.
this weapon really needs no explanation. i would be fitted onto humvees, and perhaps as an asset, like the .50 nest.

-The Medic on the British Army team, should have a helmet, like his other counterparts. I find it hard to believe that a medic would be wearing a soft cover in heavy combat.
-The introduction of an M1A2 on Fallujah, and the deletion of the Bradley from the same map. The Marine Corps do not have Bradleys. With the intro of the abrams and the deletion of the 2 bradleys, an extra LAV maybe introduced.
-A popular suggestion, i know the discussions, but the pilot should have atleast a combat knife and/or a berreta 92. purely for the fact that if he is shot down, from personal experience on op. archer, he can survive to an extent.
-Not sure why this was taken out, but when passenger in the supply truck, you should be able to shoot out of the door window. this is something which can be introduced to humvees as well.
-Kit pickups from an enemy combatant. Okay, I can see an insurgent stealin gear off a downed BLUFOR, but somehow i can't see a Marine taking off his helmet and trading it for a head-dress. when a BLUFOR picks up an enemy kit, he'd have the kit e.g. the AK47, but not the clothing.
-Splash damage and overall damage of the APC i.e. the LAV25 and the bradley increased. how can an insurgent survive 5 round into his car/motorbike and around his feet when he's running?!?!
Finally,
-the addition of a door gun to the British Lynx helicopter.
