Hello and Introduction

[BD1 0]

Hello All,

I just wanted to introduce myself as one of the ArmA admins at TacticalGamer.com and finally got round to registering here as a link from this community to ours at TG. I realise many of you may question my username as I know there is another Blackdog, however "Blackdog1" was my call sign for many years as a Combat Signalman in the UK Signals regiment and thus it is what I have used since I have been playing ArmA, long before I discovered there was another Blackdog. So apologies for any confusion this may create.

I am sure some of you have played on the TG servers at somepoint and I hope we can see many more of you. Our gameplay style is geared toward the more mature player and as such, whilst the server is open to the public we are trying to establish a more realistic and tactical style of play whilst also keeping the fun element. Server1 is open to the public and we have recently decided to turn this into a dedicated server for a few specialist maps and mods. Currently we are running Uhao and Avgani with plans to run a couple more. We have a couple of issues with this right now but we are working feverishly on it! Server2 is passworded, and the pass can be found on our forums and is primarily geared toward COOP play with some TvT thrown in. Please do stop by and play a few rounds with us, all are welcome.

I would like to congratulate all the map, mods and mission builders with their excellent work, every day someone posts a link to something new that has been released and that's why we decided to start a server geared toward new mods and maps.

In addition, I am also the CO of one of our newest In-House squads, "TG 22nd Rapid Reaction Regiment".

I and the other admins at TG look forward to getting to know a great many of you and hope we can discuss some ideas for missions, mods and maps at TG anytime soon.

Best Regards

BD1

I've definitely had a lot of fun on the TG servers. Really gives you the feel of being on an actual mission where your goal is to return home from a successful mission alive.

Creeping up to an enemy location with multiple flanks, having multiple targets selected and aimed at, and then simultaneously launching the attack can be quite a sight to behold.

On the downside, the server does sometimes have to be careful to stay efficient enough to keep things moving. It's not so great when you end up standing around for several hours or taking forever to advance, all just to take out some inept AI infantry soldiers that 2/3 of the team doesn't even get to engage.

Some missions are really creative and challenging, this is where the server shines... some are just too slow or bugged, or there are those playing Domination! that makes me stay away.
