An issue has been made in our system so when one of our devs has some time this will be implemented.  It's scheduled to be put in the next version but no promises. 

Mission Summary
 
This Sunday, we turn a regular bout of Liberation around to show off what we can do when we put our minds to it. Expect a solid experience with high emphasis on teamwork and structure, with an established Chain of Command.  These are the days when we push for harder objectives or complex operations in combined arms, or try things we normally would not.

TEAMSPEAK MISSION BRIEFING FOR ALL PLAYERS WILL BEGIN AT 19:00 UTC
Expected Mission Length: 120+ minutes (may go over or under expected mission length)
 
Player Slots: 38 (3 Squads of 11, Vortex and a 3 man command element)
 
 
Situation
With the immediate threats dealt with in the South and the loyalists on the backfoot for the moment we can finally go on the offensive. We have identified 2 targets of importance to the loyalists which we intend to neutralise. The removal of these assets from the loyalists will severely weaken their position allowing our forces to move ever deeper into their territory. Our intel has suggested that there could be a loyalist commander on Isla Hazena. If so he would make a fine target to capture.
 
 
Assets:
3 x BTR80 (Usable only when a full crew is available)
2 x Mi-24G
Various ground support vehicles
 
 
Friendly Forces:
Army of the Western African Republic 
 
Enemy Forces:
Loyalist forces controlled by the government of Joseph Lumumba
 
Neutral Forces:
A coalition of UN troops 
 
Civilians:
Civilian presence to be expected, concentrated in built up areas.
 
Mission
Liberate both high value assets from the loyalist forces. The first being an airfield that has been used to launch aerial reinforcements and combat aircraft in the past. The second is a major fuel processing centre, the loss of which could cripple the loyalists ability to transport man and munitions. Intel also suggests that a HVT may be present, he is to be captured if possible.
 
 
Execution
Objectives:
1. Capture the designated airfield
2. Liberate Isla Hazena and deny the loyalists access to the fuel processing facilities there.
3. If possible capture Loyalist commander Abdelaziz Ghali (intel on his appearance will be supplied)
4. Engage and neutralise any loyalist forces or equipment encountered
 
Movement Plan:
At Commanders discretion
 
Rules of Engagement:
Enemies may be engaged on sight based on current squad orders
Civilians are present in the area so collateral damage is to be kept to a minimum.
 
 
Admin & Logistics
 
Equipment & Resupply:
At the commander’s control, assets are available at base to facilitate this.
 
Reinforcements:
Unlimited
At commanders discretion, transport assets are available.
 
 
Command & Control
 
Command:
Overall command lays with codename "Overlord" who will set objectives and ROE.

The capture UAV side mission is missing something:
 

 
Additionally its spawn location is less then ideal:

 
And finally the wreck of that slammer between the black and red lines is a player who got shot by an enemy neophron, without any warning of any kind, after driving that entire distance and having his final destination basically in sight.  No warning, no means of self-defence:

Hello @ShepherdLaw
 
You were banned for 3 days on the 26th of November. 
 
 
Ignorance of the rules isn't really a defence here. They are available at the forums and they are also available in game. You are even shown a popup when joining the server informing you about this. Also stated above things are dealt with on a case by case basis by the administrator(s) present at the time. That also means the administrator in question chooses weather to address you via chat or TS. In adition to this your TS nick and in game nick were not the same so connecting the two nicknames isn't a given.

I see you joined the server and jumped head first in the deep end. Had you spent some time getting to know the rules and people on TS maybe asking some questions you would have been informed how Close Air Patrol vehicles are not suited for Close Air Support. You might have learned that they also tend to end up wasted assets while trying to attack heavily armoured targets with weapons very ill suited for the task. Key word here is wasting high value assets. 

We do usually work on a warn > kick > ban principle, but since the same rule had been infringed upon and the issue was dealt with shortly before your infringement,  it should be clear for everyone present at the time what the rules and consequence are. I would have been quite sympathetic with your case had you apologized for breaking the rules, but instead I read the appeal as how we should interpret out own rules and how our admins should do their job. I am very hard pressed to find any remorse in the appeal.
 
...and finally I cannot look past leaving Team Speak just to re-join shortly after as C..T and poking the banning admin with a drive by insult. This is pure disrespect toward a member of staff, complete disregard toward the rules of conduct and sprit of our community and a rotten thing to do. 
 
For this your ban appeal is not only unsuccessful but I will be prolonging your ban to 90 days.

BAN APPEAL UNSUCCESSFULL

Situation
Since regaining control of the MSR to Kirabo the movement of people and cargo between the three main cities in the country has resumed.
As it turns out there were several UN aid workers trapped in Kirabo before the blockade was broken. We have received thanks from senior UN officials in the area for handling the situation with minimal loss to civilian infrastructure in the town. We have explained that this was managed through carefully drawing the loyalists out of the city before engaging them.
 
However, all is not well, now that the loyalists cannot exert direct control of our supply routes they have resorted to an indirect method. They have begun rocket attacks on major towns and infrastructure in the southern half of the island.

I'm maybe a few years late on this, as I used to play alot a few years back (under KillerCamCam), took a break, Covid happened, came back, decided to be social and join Teamspeak this time. 
 
Just wanted to thank you all that know me for making it fun, really been enjoying getting back into Arma, glad to see Ahoy is still going strong

I am going to be frank and hope that you see my honesty as constructive and not complaining for the sake of it.
 
If you keep I&A 4 in it’s current iteration, it will change the climate of EU1. I started playing Arma on EU1 and stayed because I enjoyed the relative freedom it gave me to pick and learn a role and also squad up with whomever I wanted to and have my friends in roles that they wanted to play as well. I enjoyed being able to earn reward vehicles and drove them without needing to change slots to do so. 
 
It was also simple and fairly idiot-proof. A great place where new players can learn and also feel welcome in the AW community. 
 
I feel that while I&A4 does have positives to it, I just am not motivated to play it. I feel restricted and overwhelmed . I do not like the map and that I cannot see all the objective markers at all times. i don’t want to grind a few hours just to get the loadout I enjoy playing with. It is changing what was a casual server into something less so. You have AWE to offer a more serious experience for those wanting it.
 
I also wonder if you, Ryko, have spent much time on I&A3 and seen what makes it so special and also the sort of players who regularly play there and how they approach the game. I wonder if the changes are even being made with the current player base in mind or if these are taken simply from the perspective of experienced and more serious players.
 
So I ask that you conduct a little experiment while the beta is up. See how long your regular players are on server for compared to I&A3. Look at guys like TheScar and Pickle who easily log some of the most hours on EU1. Players that are the backbone of your current community.
 
I personally average seven hours a day playing Arma and had the best weekend this past weekend with a lot of fun and bullshittery. I have made friends and feel part of a great community. I fear these changes will take a lot of that away and it makes me incredibly sad.
 
I am sorry if this comes across in any way badly as that’s not my intention. I hope you will see this as coming from a passionate player who is invested in not just the game but the community too.
 
 
 
 

The server is busiest during the evenings in central Europe.  So from 16UTC up until like midnight.  We do allow some mods on EU1, these ones to be specific, but none of them contain any weapons or clothing.  If you want to use modded gear AWE, another one of our servers, is the place to go to.  Here's a guide on how to join.  Although we do use advanced medical, ballistics and fatigue on there which might be a bit of a steep learning curve if you just started playing arma.
