This is one of Warrior Poet Society’s most under-valued courses, as many think it’s only something for SWAT teams and military members. The reality is that every patrol officer answering a call, every civilian investigating a ‘bump in the night’, and really, every person who comes in harms way in or around any structure is engaging in CQB room clearing. This is high-stakes chess and the unforgiving game of angles. Here, pistol / rifle skills graduate into something far more important: tactics. All military, law enforcement, and civilians are welcome to attend this 2 day course, pending legal possession of a firearm and US citizenship. Students will learn timeless tactical principles and combat-proven, deliberate clearing techniques, which will enable them to spot the threats much earlier and avoid getting ambushed.

Operation Black Divide is a force-on-force MILSIM event built around structure, pressure, and player-driven outcomes. This operation places two opposing factions into a contested region where control, disruption, and momentum decide the course of the fight. Every mission, movement, and decision contributes to the larger battle.

This is not a scripted experience. While the framework is established, the outcome is determined entirely by the players on the field.
