Maybe they will go down the line of succession, but that's only a dozen people long, and it's entirely possible that some of those people are in the WF or Florida Alliance.

[@Sindernemesin]

I was wondering the same thing. I get the idea of "shoot who is shooting at you" but how do they know when to just start. Everyone is wearing the same thing and arm patches are too small to use as identification. Did the commanders call each other and say "we will start on this side so you should shoot this way"?

[@garrickanderson4533]

I think it's kinda similar to Ukraine some will probably wear like a yellow stripe or something on their arms

[@tornamacpilib5029]

If they are shooting at you, they are on the wrong side. Joking aside, communication. You're in touch with your leadership so you know if you have friendlies operating in the area and where they are. Otherwise, if they are not your unit, they are the enemy and you engage. Friendly fire happens.

[@Redneck2393]

That Apache scene is totally ludicrous. It's close enough to the Loyalist positions that it could easily be taken out by small arms fire and it's surrounded by tall buildings so it can't take evasive maneuvers if need be. More realistically, the Apache should've either stayed above the buildings and taken out the enemy position from a safer distance or hung back and let the WF's better protected Abrams right below it take it out. Also, the sound department for this movie was apparently too lazy to do any research since Apaches in real life don't have 1,000+ RPM miniguns, they have much slower firing auto-cannons that only fire around 600 RPM.

The reason why DC was lightly defended was because according to the movie, most of the President's generals who understood that the war was lost and decided to order their forces to stand down, thus allowing the Western Forces and Florida Alliance to move into DC. The only forces remaining in DC were the remnant gov forces still loyal to the President.

[@readyornotfan6770]

The City Washington D.C was designed for urban combat. The building and street placements and directions were made so it cant be easily captured.

[@Sapphiregamer8605]

Modern warfare 3(OG) was a great example of this

[@ianschmutzler8177]

The Loyalist Forces are clearly on their last legs by this point. Hell, the movie starts with the Western Forces being only a short way from DC. Now, Generals who have served the regime for years have thrown in the towel and probably brought with them to soldiers they command. Those who are still fighting are doing so out of loyalty or the assumption they'll be shot when trying to surrender. Plenty have probably abandoned their uniforms or fled- It's been suggested that the escape attempt of the Beast was an attempt by some individual Secret Service members to escape DC instead of some sort of distraction. The point is, the Loyalists are held together by the sheer desperation of a man who knows he's dead and simple refusal to think for themselves.

love those shell-less guns. very clean and efficient

[@趣味-d3g]

It is very painful to have to fight the same Americans for law on the one hand and for justice on the other. no one to be a winner after that. And division weakens the country, and even if victorious, civil war creates an opening for a new external enemy to take advantage of.

this movie with 1) more assault action like this 2) less "waaaaaa! I want to be in the press!"....."NO! serious press business is serious don't you understand how serious it is!!!!" would have made for a great movie

I forget sometimes that war movies are made for those who’ve never been to a war.

[@ultrajd]

Why would you waste a Javelin on a target that close by? Also that’s not how an Apache chin gun sounds.

[@Spierred]

Because they had it. I've seen footage of dudes in Afghanistan shooting AT-4s at rocks. It's better than sitting there shooting at them with small arms while in an exposed position all day. The way they're fighting from their vehicles like that - I know it's just for the sake of the cinematography, but it gives the sense that they were ambushed and were not expecting to take contact from the Lincoln memorial.

[@billponderosa88]

I couldn't watch this because they had California and Texas team up. I was already out and I heard that😂

The country in the movie itself was already divided into several factions. The Loyalists forces, The Western Alliance forces, Florida Alliance, and the last one who's never been mentioned in the movie is New People's Army. It is said the NPA has ties with China, or presumably under Chinese direct control.
