Arma 3 Weekend - July 2-3

Sign me up for Autorifleman. Although come the weekend up play I ll fill whatever position needs to be filled.

Sorry guys, I have to cancel the main event. There’s an important football match (this: :soccer:, not this: :football:) on Saturday :disappointed_relieved:

Sorry. I might join you after that.

Pretty big one today with Italy and Spain. To big clubs go at it for the chance to play the defending World Champs. Good stuff.

Got you in there, @weaponz248, but both of the autorifleman positions on the First Squad were taken, so I moved you to the second squad. You might want to consider taking the Leader position.

True, my bet is on Italy for both matches. They are Germany’s nemesis in tournaments :wink:

I can do squad lead eater … I mean leader … or fireteam leader. If we get a bunch more people I might want to switch out to a spectator slot (@near_blind, can we add that?) but only if we have enough people to get some fire teams going.

Flawless VICTORY!

Thanks @Fridge. I signed you up for Squad Leader, First Squad, since it’s the largest squad at the moment. I’m sure there’s some wiggle room in assignments. Just double check the fine print on your deployment orders. :wink:

Ok Ill take fireteam 1 lead then. Worst case scenario we live…

Thanks, @weaponz248! With that, the First Squad is pretty decked out - looking for a leader for Squad 2 Fireteam 2, and a couple of AT Riflemen.

You’ve missed my request there, @EinsteinEP

@EinsteinEP - feel free to pop me anywhere then. Sargoth can be leader :slight_smile:

Yikes! Somebody needs to fire this guy!

Updated you as Squad Leader, First Squad, per your request, @Sargoth. @Fridge, I’ve set you as Leader for Fireteam 2.

Few questions…

First, how will we join the day of the event? Just log into ARMA 3 and then find the server?

Second, Teamspeak, will we need to be logged into mudspikes channel or does TFAR automatically do stuff?

Third, Not really a question but With this kicking off at 1700 UTC Saturday I might be a little late to the party. I work till 1000 UTC Saturday morning. Also any good documentation or vids on being a Fireteam leader?

  1. Take this sword, and this mythral mail. If you are true of spirit, and pure of heart, you shall find the server. Wait no, that’s my D&D thing.

Address will be 70.119.119.58, password will be provided on the day of the thingy.

  1. You need to be present on the mudspike ts server, preferably in the arma channel. Once the mission starts (we move on from the briefing screen), the tfar plug in will automagically shunt you into the proper place.

You can check out dyslexi’s videos on squads. It should give you a good idea of of what you can expect. My advise would be: be clear and concise with what you want your squad to do and have a clear picture in you head of what you want them to achieve.

Alright @EinsteinEP, Slot me in as the FO. I’ll multiply the crap out of our force.

Ok, it was unclear if I would be available tomorrow as the wife and I have been on vacation this week. However, after intense negotiations at a large table with flag centerpieces and small sandwiches, I am cleared to attend. I won’t be talking about the concessions it required, the price was very high and the justification will be misunderstood in later years.

You can put me down in any slot, it looks like the AT slots are open. I can also fire team lead if we need another team filled in, I have stumbled many guys into many an ambush over the years.

I’ve taken the opportunity to write another guide about how to use TFAR, how the respawn systems in the main mission will work, and how the airsupport system in the mission will work.

Additionally my server will be up all day today, if you’d like to drop in to confirm your mods are working, feel free.

Server is called Mudspike July March in.
IP is 70.119.119.58
Password is mammaries

Also note for whatever reason it takes what seems like forever for my server to transfer a mission file. Be patient, it’s most likely not broken. probably.
