Imagine if you took Homer's Odyssey and applied it to a modern setting in the Middle East. A squad gets lost, separated from their unit, or otherwise find themselves in such a situation that they now have to try to find their way back to friendly territory. They could come across any number of things in the meantime. Hostile forces, friendly natives, a herd of camels, who knows? Hell, I might even throw in a couple of vaguely supernatural elements for shits and giggles. Regardless, their objective is simple. They just have to get out of no man's land and find their way back to friendly territory.

For the sake of this RP, I want to point out that I want to try to aim more towards realism as far as characters are concerned. For the most part, your characters aren't going to be super soldiers. You're just a squad of infantrymen; most of you probably won't even have any weapons besides either an M-16 or an M-4; maybe a sidearm. We'll probably have one machinegunner, a medic, possibly a grenadier, and MAYBE a designated marksman, but understand that most infantry squads are about 70% composed of your average, joe-blow rifleman and may or may not contain any of the above mentioned assets. That being said, I'm thinking the ideal size will be 8 people for this RP.

Obviously, this is pretty early in the planning stages, and I'm just feeling the waters. This is, after all, an interest check. So who would be interested?
