2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion Situation Report Second Deployment The second is preparing to enter its second deployment phase in Arma 3. On October 5th, 2014 the unit will deploy to northern Pakistan for Operation Hadrian. The unit will be supporting a large military offensive in the federally administered tribal areas (FATA) in northern Pakistan. Enemy opposition has been confirmed to be a mix of tribal fighters and military forces suspected to be a group of radical military personnel from the northern Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan area. The unit has already performed several reconnaissance and seek and destroy missions in the region, resulting in the engagement of both enemy opposition groups. Operation Linebacker On August 9th the 2nd MSOB was proud to participate in another installment of the Operation Linebacker series. Linebacker is a joint operation that incorporates gaming units from around the world, and is hosted by Task Force 91. This time the deployment lasted 12 hours, and the 2nd participated the full Operation time. The unit again found itself in several intense fire fights; fighting along side Task Force Independence, 4th MSOB, Task Force 91, 3 Commando Brigade, and VOLCBAT. We'd like to again extend our thanks to Task Force 91 for putting together and hosting such an awesome operation, and also all the other GU's that made this operation possible.

I had a very similar problem not too long ago. I wasn't running your exact mod set, but I see you have @FFIS running in yours. I was running @FFIS as well, I removed it, and my crashing stopped. In order for it to work, I had to remove @FFIS from my list, and also everyone playing on my locally hosted server had to remove @FFIS. I can't guarantee that this will fix your problem, but it fixed mine.

2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion Situation Report End of First Deployment The 2nd MSOB, has ended its first Arma 3 deployment. The unit successfully inserted into the N'Ziwasogo region of Africa, and achieved general mission success. After several encounters with PFA forces, the unit began to face the ordeals of loss in manpower and ammunition. However, pushing forward the 2nd MSOB successfully established communication with ex-Pro Governmental forces and was able to ascertain the current situation on the scene. The success would be called short as the Russian Federation Army began assisting the PFA forces with a military crackdown in the region. To prevent the unit from being cutoff from supporting assets in the Atlantic the unit was called out of the region. Training Phase The unit has now entered another training phase while another, more extensive, deployment campaign is under development. Operation Linebacker On July 5th, the 2nd MSOB was proud to participate in Operation Linebacker. Linebacker, a 24 hour joint operation that spans multiple time zones, is hosted by Task Force 91. Though not taking part in the full 24 hours operation, the unit did participate for a duration of 12 hours. Fighting along side Task Force 91, Task Force Independence, 4th MSOB, 3 Commando Brigade, and VOLCBAT the 2nd participated in several intense fire fights. We'd like to thank Task Force 91 for putting together and hosting a wonderful joint operation, and all the other GU's that participated making the whole operation possible.

Last night we performed the extensive test for this method, just to see if there were any pitfalls. We successfully hosted a 4 hour session on the local hosted server, with no hiccups at all. Hopefully this will be enough to get everybody up and running and allow for server hosting via local hosts to be available again.

2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion Situation Report African Conflict As global tension heightens, the situation in Africa reaches its climax. African rebel forces apposing the democratic government under President Obasi Wambeze have successfully driven the Pro-government forces under President Wambeze out of the Capital city of Kudougou. The Pro-government forces in Africa have been dealt defeats on all fronts by the Peoples Freedom Army (PFA), and the democratic government in the region has essentially collapsed. In the midst of the chaos General Dakarai Ngenge, commander of the Peoples Freedom Army, has taken charge of the regions government. Ngenge, with financial backing from both the Russian federation and the CSAT states, as well as, military support from the CSAT states, has established a new government aimed at eradicating the progressions of western democratic influence in the region. The conflict in Africa is just a small piece of the current global situation. The Russian Federation have made recent expansions seizing territory in Eastern Europe, and CSAT forces have engaged NATO forces in the Mediterranean. The U.N. has made efforts to stop the potential for an East-West conflict, however these efforts have been met with failure, and global fears of a nuclear scenario have sky rocketed. NATO and U.N. Military forces have fully mobilized in preparation for the impending conflict between the East and the West. 2nd MSOB Involvement The focal point for the 2nd MSOB, is the African conflict. For it's first deployment into Arma 3, the 2nd will inserted into the region to ascertain the situation from the ground, as well as, establish contact with the ex-Pro Governmental forces. This operation, Code-named Cobrah is to be the spearhead for the occupation of the region by NATO forces. This campaign is a work of fiction, and is in no way portraying actual global events.

2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion Web Page: http://5thrb.enjin.com/home Recruitment: http://5thrb.enjin.com/recruitment Main Drill Times: Tuesday and Sunday evenings between 20:00 and 22:30 EST Time Mods: Custom mod pack Recruiting: Active see- http://5thrb.enjin.com/recruitment We are a small group by design but have found it necessary to add a couple members due to RL issues with a few of our guys. Most of us have been together for a long while spanning a number of games but we just recently made the move to A3 and looks like we will be staying here for a while. Essentially we have had to build from the ground up with just a couple slots left to fill. As I said we are a small group that focuses on RECON and AT and compete in as many PvP competitions as we can. We also run custom co-op missions as a training tool to familiarize ourselves with various roles we may undertake. Being in such a small group (a MSOC consists of 4, 15 man platoons of which we represent one platoon) makes each mans role in the unit very instrumental and is filled with much responsibility. It requires on the spot decision making in the context of collocated movement and objectives. Not just anyone has the make up for such a small group but if you think you would like the concept we drill 2 nights a week (Tues. and Sunday) officially but work throughout the week in one fashion or the other. In the past we have experienced an exemplary record of success and I would like to think we are good at what we do. We take it serious but without obsession as to keep the stress levels down. Our demographic is diverse we range in ages most are in college, we maintain a mature perspective with little or no nonsense. Thanks for your time 2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion

You are correct, however if I had to choose one or the other, being the community making good missions, or BIS creating good missions, I would choose the community over BIS. The game has so much versatility, it really allows for community development which I enjoy thoroughly.
