Although not a ton of people have replied saying they will be coming there is usually a solid player base on Wednesdays and I will assume most will want to participate and learn a little. To put it simply this training is on schedule. -Ben

I hate to say it but to me that looks no different than a classic case of a memory leak that spiraled out of control and royally screws you about every 20 mins. It also looks your system is rolling with a pretty low amount of ram, which of course isn't the best (It looked like 4gb but I could be very wrong), so one thing that has helped me as 8 of my 16gb's of ram decided to take a shit on itself a while back is only have open your game and TS. Other programs, especially chrome, really eats memory that arma wants. Sorry that this keep happening but it has just become a part of the game. You can also try and set your memory allocator to 'system' which could help. -Ben

Oh sorry forgot. Can someone unban @Minipily for just Wednesday the first? Also on a side note anyone that feels that they are sufficiently good in a tank and would like to help teach this training session please pm me.

I forgot this guide because of its age but it still is very good and well written. We will be covering almost everything said in it in a practical way this Wednesday, and @Minipily if you wanna come and help teach please do! -Ben

The purpose of this training is mostly for the gamenight but will of course apply to tanking in guantlet. The problem I see with hammer is there just usually isn't a proper command structure or component tank commander that can make the right calls. Hopefully this training can address some of these.

Tank Training before OP- Desert Storm Where: AWE When: 2/1/17 Time: 19:30 GMT Have a chance to work as a team and work on your tanking skills for an hour or two before before Friday's game night. This is meant for all levels of tankers as mostly just some time to get practice with tanks. Topics we will cover: 1. Ammo Management and Types 2. Tank Commanding 3. Tanking Driving 4. Tank Gunning and Tank Systems 6. Range Time 5. A Small Scale Mission No need to sign up just show up and be ready to blow shit up. Or you can post bellow if you are attending. Thanks- Ben

@Copey I will more than likely do that.

Just as an update we have about six full tanks for this op and the way it will work is on the day the company commander will decide how many tanks and or infantry squads he wants. AI also may be coming with to provide a bit of ambiance and support.

@Ryko you might need to company command this as I don't know if copey is coming yet.

@nathanniles got it.

@Karate Pyjamas noted.

So I have two theories for this one. 1. He is just a thoughtful guy and made an appropriate and well thought out decision that is highly respected. 2. All the dumbass mother f&@$kers in the ban appeals section drove him crazy and he is never coming back. You decide. Seriously though thanks for all the work. -Ben

I am reopening this with a new date along with sign up info which follows: The new date will be Friday February 3 at 19:45 GMT These are the people that are currently signed up.
