Well, I've been thinking about creating a thread like this for some time now.
Basically, whatever the game,whatever your clan, just post in this thread and with your details
and what kind of players you're looking for!
I'll have a start
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 16AA is probably best described as a MilSim unit. A multinational
gaming group that has based itself off the British Army's 16 Air
Assault Brigade, we have taken the ethos, structure and tactics from
one of the World's finest Armies and adapted it to the game we play.
Like many other MilSim groups playing ArmA2, we enjoy playing the game
in the most realistic way possible whilst using the real world tactics
the game allows us to use.
While we know when to get serious to get the job done, at the end of
the day we enjoy playing with the friends we have made.
We consider ourselves a mature group of gamers, in both mentality and
(unfortunately) age and whilst we do have a minimum-age limit, the
right attitude is most important to us.
We hold mid-week trainings or mini Operations as well as a bigger
Operation every Sunday - both of which are primarily focused on Co-Op
gameplay.
We play ArmA2's Combined Operations; meaning both ArmA2 and Operation
Arrowhead are required.
Apart from the above purchases, we also use a handful of other Mods to
increase immersion and realism. Chief amongst these are ACE2 and ACRE.
So a willingness to use these community made mods is necessary.
As touched on, our structure is based off the British Army and in
particular the 16 Air Assault Brigade. Realistically we acknowledge
that we are unlikely to reach a full Company strength and the way we
have modelled our unit and our usage of ranks is reflected in that.
Ranks in the 16AA are assigned as needed.
Our NCOs are all in Leadership positions and performing their roles as
Section Leaders or Section 2ICs within the group.
We are however keenly aware that this is a game and we are "fighting"
in a virtual battlefield. Though our ranks are assigned on merit and
as required, we do not insist, or even expect, to be addressed by the
rank held.
It's a game after all and we're here to have fun.
Those of us that enjoy playing in the mud are assigned to one of our
Sections in our Air Assault Infantry Platoon. The roles within the
Sections are modelled off the British Army's Infantry Section, with a
few tweaks here and there to cater for both the game and our current
size.
Playing as an Air Assault group, the Platoon is usually inserted via
Helicopter or static line Parachute, though sometimes may be found
carrying out mounted patrols in Jackals or Land rovers.
If flying is your thing, our AAC Squadron might be for you. Numbers
are limited, keeping to roughly 1/3 of the overall unit strength, but
once you are assigned to a Flight this will only be the beginning of
your flying role.
If this sounds like something you would like to be part of, head on
over to http://www.16AA.netwww.16AA.net and leave us a post on the enlistment forum or
feel free to hop on our TS Server if you'd like more information
