connorwarman 60 Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) Core Tactical! What is Core Tactical all about? Core Tactical is based off the idea off "Tactical Fun", and we like to stand by this ideal as we play in and outside of ArmA. The "Tactical" part reflects the way we communicate, move, and function on a large scale. The "Fun" part reflects the way we go about making the experience for our members and ourselves. Basically were looking to make the best experience possible for all of our member base. Most of our missions revolve around intense close quarters infantry contact, with other units/assets acting as supporting elements. We aren't looking for easy, clean and cut scenarios. We like throwing ourselves into intense situations, we want are victories to be earned through teamwork, skill, and determination. If we don't put our all in, we don't expect to come out on top. All of our missions are made in house by members within the community. We provide a wide variety of cooperative and adversarial scenarios. From an air cav squad in the heart of Nam', to a Russian Spetsnaz unit infiltrating into enemy bases. In our adversarial scenarios we are able to take advantage of human dynamics to change the way our missions play and interact with the player. Core Tactical's Virutes Core Tactical has hereby been established to serve as a mature community that focuses on tactical fun. We believe that any set community should be set on a few common principles, which are listed below. Respect. -Simple, treat others as you would like to be treated. If you are found to be disrespecting other members, you can expect to see yourself out the door. Well Thought out Tactics. -Maintain a high level of tactical game play no matter the situation or scenario. Motivated Leaders. -We strive for a high degree of competency in our playerbase insofar as leadership goes, as well as pride ourselves on how well our non-leading players will follow orders and conduct themselves in any given mission. We find that alot of times people are scared to step up to the plate and take that Squad Leader position, thinking that people will get angry at them for leading them to death or something. -While in reality a squad of Core Tactical members will gladly follow you to the gates of hell if need be. Professionalism. -Always exhibit a supreme level of professionalism in and out of the community's official sessions. Quality over Quantity. -At Core Tactical we are always looking for the quality of our player base, over our player count. What makes a good Core Tactical member? Core Tactical expects a certain level of quality from members, at all times. You are expected to follow the virtues listed above, as well as abiding by our technical obligations. When it comes to looking over an application, were looking for individuals who generally meet some of the criteria below. -At least 16 years of age. -Good sense of humor. -Friendly respectful and mature. -Teamwork-oriented mindset. -Motivated and dedicated to making the group and our experiences the best they can be.

connorwarman 60 Posted May 12, 2013 Status Update Core Tactical has grown to 13+ active and have published our Guide to all things ArmA! Over the past few months I have been working off and on, on a guide for the community. And it is now finished and ready for all to see and learn. I doubt its even close to ShackTac's Guide, but its something that I enjoy, and others that have see it do as well.

connorwarman 60 Posted May 21, 2013 Operation Blackfish Operation Blackfish will be our first campaign. The back story and campaign slotting layout will be listed below. Deployment Date: June 1st 2013 Briefing About six months ago the ARL(Lingorian Rebels) launched a swift and decisive offensive across the island of Lingor. Within a week most of the AGL(Lingorian Military) was wiped out. Just last month the Lingorian Government asked the UN for military aid, calling the ARL a "terrorist organization" and a threat to civilian life. Shortly after the statement, the UN conducted an inspection of the ARL and their ways, and concluded that if they ended up in control of the island and its key ports. They could cause economic failure throughout the area. Now the good ole US of A has been called in to do what it does best. Kick some ass and take some names. The 6th fleet has been deployed and is just a mile off the north western coast. It has been decided that their MEU branch will be the first in. Objectives are as follows. Objective #1: Secure the enemy Radio tower. Objective #2: Secure the enemy Barracks. Objective #3: Secure the enemy Airfield. Objective #4: Secure the enemy Checkpoint.

connorwarman 60 Posted June 23, 2013 Status Update Since the last status update we have completed Operation Blackfish, and decided against doing other operations in the future. We would rather stick to a variety of different cooperative and adversarial missions throughout that night, rather than just doing one or two Coop missions focusing on one ordeal. Since the last status update we introduced a new event system where as we now do two official sessions a week instead of one. These sessions take place on Wednesday and Saturday. June has definitely been a good month for us so far, we have received 8-10 new members. Allowing us to expand our missions and the way we go about completing them. Just last week we had our largest session yet peeking at about 14 players. If you've been wanting to join a group that can give you quality, consistent enjoyable gaming on a regular schedule both in and out of ArmA, check us out. I doubt you'll be disappointed. And finally, a video made by one of our members -DarkestLight- showcasing some of our funnier moments in the past month or so! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

connorwarman 60 Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) Status Update Wow! Since the last status update Core Tactical has doubled its numbers and now has about 20-25 members attending each session! All of our missions have been doubled and we trimmed up our modset so that new members will have less trouble installing our modpack. A recent adversarial session was held against the TvT only group "Derp Squad" all in all it was a good time with both sides enjoying their time! I am pleased to announce that we now have an I44 server, we will be running I44 sessions alongside our official ACE/ACRE sessions for the remainder of the month. Our first session for I44 will be held August 19th. And here is a collection of videos from the past month or so! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpZPgeiBwskhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfxaiRiOwNE Apply to Core Tactical here: http://coretactical.enjin.com/recruitment Edited August 20, 2013 by Connorwarman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connorwarman 60 Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Status Update Its been a while since our last update, and quite a bit has changed. In recent months we have reach 40 official members, with about 18-25 active, this has allowed us to expand our horizons in the mission, and mod front. We attended a "Mega-TvT" event earlier in the month in which we teamed up with the group Derp Squad and valiantly fought the EU group known as 404 Group Not Found. And while we are focused on ArmA 2, we are beginning to run test sessions for ArmA 3, so to evaluate how the group functions with the preexisting content. Two new videos have been released by none other than myself, and they are listed below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPzPBFMXpIchttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAkxlihwSHo If you would like to join Core Tactical, you can find our website here: http://core-tactical.com/ Edited January 28, 2014 by Connorwarman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connorwarman 60 Posted September 8, 2014 Status Update Making the Switch ~ Back In early June 2014 Core Tactical made a complete switch to ArmA 3. However, after a few months the group has decided that ArmA 3 is not quite ready for us and that we will be making a partial switchback to ArmA 2. Core Tactical has nearly two years of experience in the ArmA series, are sessions run with 25-30 people on average, however we are still looking to grow and expand our member base. We currently run sessions every Saturday from 8PM EST through 2AM EST and Tuesday from 7PM EST through 11PM EST. To get an idea of what we look like in game, I'd recommend checking out the following videos! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8XA58KStkY&list=UUJPELHoXrny2GuBabLnIHrg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RO4oO3wNJUI&list=UUJPELHoXrny2GuBabLnIHrg If the above interests you, check us out here: http://core-tactical.com/?page_id=33 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
