Stealth Ops is for those Agents looking to push themselves physically and mentally in the build up to the Anomaly. And then to take a leadership role over their fellow Agents during the Anomaly.

Your GORUCK Cadre, a decorated combat Veteran of Special Operations, will simulate the missions that happen during the Anomaly under conditions of physical and mental stress: the measurement windows, the movement to the volatile locations, and the factional battles that ensue.

During Stealth Ops, you will learn to apply the 4 steps of leadership:
Understand the problem
Visualize a solution
Over-Communicate
Adapt to win

Your GORUCK Cadre is training you to become one of your faction’s most elite ground force leaders. Upon completion of Stealth Ops, you will earn the Ingress GORUCK Stealth Ops patch and the Ingress GORUCK Stealth Ops badge.

This is the most physically intensive badge in the history of Ingress… so far.

Notes on Stealth Ops:
This is both a cross-factional and competitive event. Competitions during Stealth Ops will be Resistance vs. Enlightened.

You will be training in the same Area of Operations (AO) as the Anomaly, hacking gear, obtaining Portal Keys, undergoing Missions, and laying the groundwork for your faction’s success.

Ingress point totals from Stealth Ops will not affect the outcome of the Anomaly, sort of how training does not affect the outcome of a war. Until you affect the outcome because of your training.

GORUCK Cadre have executed over 3,000 Challenges similar to this in physicality. Our Cadre are trained to teach you how to succeed when you work together - that’s their mission. The average pass rate for those who show up is 94%. The average pass rate for those who do not show up is always 0.

Date : 2nd April 2016
4+ Hours, Physical Requirements: Moderate/Low

Urban Ops represents each faction’s elite arm during the Anomaly. It’s Resistance vs. Enlightened for vital control of intelligence on the location of the Volatile Portals. Your GORUCK Cadre will conduct cross-factional competitions every hour. The winning faction receives intelligence on the location of the next set of Volatiles and can send it up to Higher command for an early advantage (~15 minutes) to mobilize all Agents from your faction to achieve mission success.

This is how wars are won. And Anomalies, too.

Upon successful completion of Urban Ops, you will earn the Ingress GORUCK Urban Ops badge, the Ingress GORUCK Urban Ops patch, the Anomaly badge, and you will be recognized by Anomaly organizers for your role as your faction’s tip of the spear.

Agents, you are the elite.

Notes on Urban Ops:
This is a cross-factional event. Competitions during Urban Ops will be Resistance vs. Enlightened.

Point totals from Urban Ops and the outcomes of the team competitions will greatly affect the outcome of the Anomaly. For your faction, there is strength in numbers and in diversity. This is more a mental challenge than a physical one.

Physical requirements for Urban Ops are low, though it is more challenging and occurs at a faster pace than normal Anomaly gameplay. It is accessible to all Agents who are capable of moving several miles within the allotted time frame. As a team, all Agents have strengths they can contribute toward a successful outcome.
