Zeus Gaming Nights

[Jinef 2]

INTRODUCTION

If you are looking for an established and mature ARMA community with a good sense of humour, then Zeus may be the place for you. Our preferred style of gameplay is all arms, small to large scale cooperative and A&Ds, which we define as essentially a two sided coop. If this is the style of gameplay that you are looking for then feel free to join us during our gaming sessions.

<span style='color:blue'>Gaming Nights: Sundays & Thursdays at 7:30GMT</span>

WHAT YOU NEED

If you are interested in playing with us, then you should read the following manual. It has server details, download links, tutorials and contains other relevant information.

<span style='color:darkred'>ZEUS MANUAL</span>

MODS REQUIRED

<ul>* ACE MOD

* ACE Island Pack

* Zcommon (additional islands and some other small addons)

GAMEPLAY

We play two main types of mission at zeus, cooperative and attack & defend. Typically a mission on Zeus would have:

<ul>* A mission commander for either side

* Player controlled AI groups

* Group respawn / No respawn

* A realistic scenario

* Victory conditions covering casualty rates/time/objectives

* Artillery and CAS support

Often the sides are uneven, creating some interesting gameplay and anybody, guest or regular, can take on the role of mission commander, squad

Yeah good fun tonight, even though the scout team got into more trouble than we could handle when we accidentally set up an OP 100 meters away from a whole bloody airport security platoon. Never been happier to see that arty coming in

It's also on the first post in this thread.

You don't need to "join up" as such. Just feel free to say hello in the Zeus forums or on teamspeak.

Unfortunately an ejection script spammed thousands of parachutes making Coy Assault V8 unplayable. Should be fixed for next Sunday

Oh that's what happened. I just thought the airfield was getting reinforced by a para commando battalion. I then proceeded to lay down and die.

Terox rewrote the paradrop script.

Final version uploaded and tested. Ready for Sunday night. Please try and make it so we have full groups and possibly (og and mike) some real opposition in the 2 playable REDFOR slots
