IC-ArmA Campaign #2

Recommended Posts

3-ic-logo.jpg

Everyone knows the potential of the ArmA game engine…..

But does public play leave you felling frustrated and unsatisfied? If this sounds like your experience, then IC-ArmA is the place for you!

After an extensive 10 week Campaign the world’s premier Armed Assault tournament International Conflict: Armed Assault (IC-ArmA) is back for the start of their second official campaign. During Campaign #1 the IC-ArmA hit the heady heights of over 105 people in the server and became this biggest game ever in the history of ArmA.

Campaign 1 proved to be fiercely fought. At the outset the Kingdom of Sahrani blitzkrieged the beleaguered Democratic Republic of Sahrani taking control of the vast majority of the island. However, the tenacious DRS fought back valiantly and ultimately the outcome of Campaign 1 came down to the last battle. In the end the DRS took the campaign with 11 territories to the KS 10 in what proved to be an epic Campaign. So what is IC-ArmA I hear you ask?

Put simply, it is the only true way to experience ArmA in a PvP enironment. In IC-ArmA, two armies are pitted against each other, week-in, week-out during a campaign or tour. These armies are comprised of a number of infantry, armor, special operations and air units all led by a High Command staff. In IC-ArmA you are a small but very important cog in a much bigger war machine. During the last Campaign the players at IC-ArmA maxed out the server with 110 people. 110 people fighting each other, struggling for control in an organised and structured way is truly something to behold.

In Campaign Two, the newly formed Sahrani Armed Forces will be under the command of Gen.Moshe. The Brigada Militarija Forza will be under the command of Gen.robs456. Under their command, the armies will battle over an island, fighting to keep control of key territories and positions. You can help swing the tide of battle for either side! Whether you choose to fight or not, it promises to be a titanic battle. Campaign 2 is due to start on the 10th of November. There is no better time to make or reacquaint yourself with this tournament.

Do you strive to lead men? Do you want to be led by strong and charismatic leaders? Then come prove yourself, there is ample room for players of all abilities. Who knows, at the beginning of Campaign 3, <span style='color:"Red"'>YOU</span> could be General!

IC-ArmA FAQ

<span style='color:Blue'>Is this like a clan?</span>

No. We are not a clan. We do not rely on any external organizations, ladders, clubs, or groups for this tournament. International Conflict:Armed Assault has its own schedule, servers, administrators, forums, and armies - everything needed to run independently and entirely on its own. Individuals and members of clans are welcomed to join, but you will have to leave your clan tags/affiliations at the door.

<span style='color:Blue'>Isn't that like breaking up clans?</span>

Not at all, IC-ArmA recognises the importance and value of clans and squads and doesn't do anything to break them up.

<span style='color:Blue'>How do these 2 forces fight each other?</span>

International Conflict will utilise Armed Assaults multiplayer component to stage large scale battles. The two teams fight it out on an official battle day to determine who is victorious. The armies fight over nominated territories and they carry them forward to the next battleday.

<span style='color:Blue'>How Large is Large?</span>

Towards the end of Campaign #1, the IC-ArmA tournament had 110 people in the server.

<span style='color:Blue'>What are the requirements to join International Conflict:Armed Assault?</span>

You must have your own <span style='color:Red'>legal</span> copy of Armed Assault

You must have a set of speakers and a mic.

You must download and use TeamSpeak.

You must visit the forums as much as possible.

You must have fun.

<span style='color:Blue'>Why Teamspeak?</span>

it is imperative that each force communicate within their teams. TeamSpeak is a very simple, and flexible Voice-Over-IP (VOIP) software program that enables you to communicate via a mic to your teammates. TeamSpeak is free to download. And having speakers and mic, and downloading and using TeamSpeak is a requirement of the tournament. You may use a headset with mic as well.

<span style='color:Blue'>How often do these forces fight each other, and for how long?</span>

Official Battle days are one day every weekend (unless posted otherwise, e.g. due to Holiday, etc.). Currently they are 3 hours long on Saturdays at 6GMT/1EST

<span style='color:Blue'>Do I have to play the entire time?</span>

No. You can play as much as you can or as little as you want. Some players can hammer out the whole lot, and others can only put in 1 hour.

<span style='color:Blue'>How are the 2 forces organized/structured?</span>

Each army has their own organizational structure as established by their High Commanding Officers (HCOs). Each is broken down into sub-divisions or companies that has its own COs (Commissioned Officers), NCOs (Non Commissioned officers), and enlisted troops.

<span style='color:Blue'>Do I have to follow the orders of higher ranking players? </span>

Yes. To achieve the level organization we strive for here, it is important that orders be followed and carried out.

<span style='color:Blue'>How can I advance my rank? </span>

One word, PARTICIPATE. Show up for practices, show up for battles, take part in discussions on the forums, hang out on the TS server, get to know your officers. That will get you started. Then it all depends on your qualities as a leader, and that is a more complicated thing.

<span style='color:Blue'>What is the official language of the tournament?</span>

English, spoken on TS and written in forums.

<span style='color:Blue'>Is this a very competitive tournament? Is the atmosphere cutthroat?</span>

International Conflict stresses teamwork, strategy, organization, friendship, and most of all fun. The members here take playing the game in the campaign very seriously. They came to International Conflict looking for organization and to get away from the chaos/anarchy that takes place in the public servers. At the same time, lifelong friendships are made and on non-battle days, many members will go "pubbing" to have fun and practice teamwork (they will jump on a public server). And at other times, many members just hang out on our TeamSpeak server.

<span style='color:Blue'>Now the Big Question - when?</span>
