The player is assigned as a sniper. After training, the player is sent into arctic regions to kill high-ranking officers, capture enemy territory and hold the line.
After sniper training, the player is a RangerFireteam Leader, in which the player has an M4 carbine with pre-chosen modifications. The Fireteam Leader goes through MOUT training again with the ability to give limited orders to squadmates. After training, the Rangers raid a drug processing base and defend it from ambushing OPFOR members, and heads to a desert base to capture a high-ranking officer, as well as defending the base from enemy attack.
