== Medical Officer ==

You are in charge of the Medical element, which consists of 4 medics including yourself. Your job is coordinate medical for the entire Company, this includes dispatching the medics under your command to treat casualties, controlling casualty collection points as needed, deciding where to deploy field hospitals, coordinating resupply with Logi, and so on.

Every Squad will now have a Rifleman CLS who has extra bandages, splints, and Aspiring to treat minor injuries and stabilize casualties. The medics under your control can be attached to squads and you have the freedom and more importantly the responsibility to make sure the entire company receives medical treatment in a timely manner.

Fire Team Leader

2023-07-30T19:22:30Z

Llama: /* Fireteam */

==Fireteam==

You are running a team of 4 men, including yourself. The loadout types vary slightly but stick to a general rule:

Knowing what each role does and how to use them will improve your leading, your teams performance, and overall enjoyment of gameplay.

*FTL- The leader of a fireteam. Carries a radio to communicate to his Squad Leader and a short range to talk to the fireteam. Typically has an underbarrel GP launcher with a few HE and different color smoke rounds.

*Auto Rifleman (AR)- Second in command of a fireteam. If FTL dies, he grabs his radio and keep the fireteam going. Typically has a fully auto machine gun of some nature.

*Assistant Auto Rifleman (AAR)- Carries spare ammo for the AR but also helps to keeps situational awareness for him while he maintains fire towards a target as well as spotting with binoculars if engaging at longer ranges.

*Rifleman CLS - Combat Lifesaver, carries extra bandages, splints, and painkillers. The main role of the CLS is to stabilize casualties until a medic can arrive.

*Rifleman AT (RAT)- Standard rifleman only with some type of anti-tank launcher in his equipment launcher. A very important member to keep alive as you may run into light/heavy armor contacts and hes got the tool to remove it.
===Fireteam Leading SOPs===
Always mention what formation you want prior to movement.

Always mention what team you want on each side of your formation prior to movement.

Always place your fireteam members as priority.

Always keep your squad leader informed (Casualties, ammunition, TIC, etc...)

Always be as vocal as possible

==Movement==
In regards to movement, there are numerous ways to operate as a Fireteam. As a Fire Team leader it is important you know how to use your fireteam in safest and most effective way to ensure success of your objective and the longevity of your members.

Many times as a fireteam leader you will have to choose a formation to move your squad in.
There is no 100% perfect formation to call but there are some that usually work well in certain situations.

For a quick review of the formations you can call, reference [[Formations]]

Regardless of formation, always keep your color teams together and provide cohesion amongst the two.

===Jungle===

For jungle movement, the overall most used formation is column. This keeps all units able to keep an eye on each other as they move through dense foliage as well as keeping visual in all directions. As soon as contact is taken, you will make a line and engage

===Open or exposed terrain===

For more open terrain, a wedge or echelon are usually the most used formation. Keeping your group together and watching a full 180 will help you to spot units that might be in the distance in the direction your headed

===City===

For cities, most common formations are column or a staggered column depending. Mostly it will be column because of keeping sectors watched and for making crossing roads and open lanes easier and safer. These are used when taking contact from a flank is more likely. It leaves the front and rear slightly weaker but ensures that you cant get hit from the sides. The safest way is to keep your FT against a wall so 1 out of 4 directions are always safe... mostly.

===Roads===

For roads or long paths, You will almost always want to run a staggered column, unless you have your other FT running side-by-side with you in which case it will be just a column. Staggered gives both sides a close to equal amount of firepower and visibility as the team moves and keeps the spread apart in case of very close contact.

==Qualification==

[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P0AX540HHg14yXVZ8l5eMeYNNNXn46X8fGZj0qSiWPw/edit You can find the FTL qualification guide at this link].

Squad Leader

2023-07-30T19:19:10Z

Llama: /* Squad */

==Squad==

You are in control of a 8 man squad, including yourself. The loadouts among your men will vary but generally follow a few rules:
*2x Fireteams containing a FTL, AR, AAR, RAT, GRN, Rifleman CLS

===Squad composition===

# 2x FTL
# 1x AR
# 1x AAR
# 1x Rifleman CLS
# 2x RAT

''Mission designers are free to alter not only the squad structure, but the fireteam structure. Ensure you are aware of the assets available at the fireteam level.''

Occasionally you will be assigned additional units or assets. These can include, a truck or armored vehicle, a vehicle with dedicated crew, an attack vehicle without dedicated crew, additional infantry specialties, additional fireteams, significant JIP numbers. Every specialty supports the light infantry platoon, be sure you are well versed in how to employ every asset, lean on your specialty leaders if you are unsure.

Squad leaders must be the flexible in all situations, your job is to protect and attack with your 2 fireteams, any additional assets under your command should be used to support your fireteams.

===Squad Leading SOPs===

Always be as vocal as possible

Always ensure your FTLs have what they need

Always mention what formation you want the fireteams in if necessary

Always ensure communication is setup prior to safe start being disabled

Always keep your medic somewhere safe but mobile

Always ensure you have supply lines setup to your fireteam leaders

Always keep yourself out of danger, but in a managing position

Always inform the Platoon Leader on what is happening within your squad

Always position your teams to support each other

==Planning and Orders==

Your job is to refine the plan as described by your platoon leader.

Further divide your sector for your fireteams, make additional marks of important or dangerous areas. When necessary micro plan for fireteam leaders.
Ensure your team leaders discuss their sectors.
Brief on what vehicles will be taken (if any) and what unit mounts where.
Ask about additional questions the leaders under you have about the mission.

==Management==
When moving your fireteams, they can and should be used interchangeably. Either team can be an assaulting team or base team. Consider path to the area, and causalities in what unit is assigned to a role.

Try to keep fireteams close together, they should have to make minimal movement if they need to directly support the other fireteam.

Generally use squad columns for travel, and squad lines for assaulting.

When placing fireteams for defensive positions, maintain overlapping fields of fire where possible.

===Jungle===

For jungle movement, the overall most used formation is column. This keeps all units able to keep an eye on each other as they move through dense foliage as well as keeping visual in all directions. As soon as contact is taken, you will make a line and engage.

Most importantly keep teams in direct support of each other, too far apart can allow entire enemy units between fireteams in dense terrain.

===Open or exposed terrain===

Bound teams to areas of cover, use other elements to cover/suppress.
Keeping your group together and watching a full 180 will help you to spot units that might be in the distance.
Limit time in the open by all elements.

===City===

For cities, most common formations are column or a staggered column depending. Mostly it will be column because of keeping sectors watched and for making crossing roads and open lanes easier and safer. These are used when taking contact from a flank is more likely. It leaves the front and rear slightly weaker but ensures that you cant get hit from the sides. The safest way is to keep your FT against a wall so 1 out of 4 directions are always safe... mostly.

===Roads===

For roads or long paths, You will almost always want to run a staggered column, unless you have your other FT running side-by-side with you in which case it will be just a column. Staggered gives both sides a close to equal amount of firepower and visibility as the team moves and keeps the spread apart in case of very close contact.

Welcome to Coalition! Just follow a few easy steps and you'll be able to join our Arma 3 sessions. '''We play twice a week, on Wednesdays at 1900 CST and on Saturdays at 1700 CST.'''

=== Download our Modpack ===

You can obtain the modpack by either of these two methods: [[Installing with a3sync|Arma3Sync ]] or [[Installing with Swifty 3|Swifty 3]].

Both of these programs are community-developed projects that allow you to easily download, install, and keep the mods we use on our servers in sync.

=== Connect to Teamspeak ===

If you don't have Teamspeak installed already, you can find it [https://www.teamspeak.com/en/downloads/ here]

Once you have Teamspeak installed, you can join us at ''ts3.coalitiongroup.net''

=== Test Your Modpack and Server Connection ===

Now that you have the modpack downloaded and are connected to Teamspeak, you can verify that everything is working correctly by launching Arma through Swifty or A3sync, and joining our Training Server.

<pre>
IP: arma.coalitiongroup.net -OR- 149.56.29.44
Port: 2313
Password: torch
</pre>

If you are able to successfully join the server without any errors, you are ready to join our sessions!

If you run into any issues joining the server, post a screenshot of the error you are getting in the #tech-support channel in our Discord, and someone will help get you squared away.

''If you are new to ARMA or the mods we use (like ACE medical, or ACRE radios), we can give you a short rundown of the basics before session. All you need to do is ask in discord or TS!''

=== Join a Wednesday or Saturday Session ===

Now that you have your modpack squared away, you're ready to join a session. 45 minutes prior to session, you should see a message in Discord letting everyone know 'Prejoin is Live!' This is a special prejoin map we run prior to session to let everyone have one final chance to make sure their mods are loaded, and practice on different weapon systems and get ready for session.

First join Teamspeak and move to the '''''Waiting to JIP / Slotting ''''' channel
[[File:JIP.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The slotting channel can be found here, at the bottom of teamspeak!]]

Once you are in the JIP channel, launch Arma 3 with our mods through either Swifty or A3sync and connect to the Session Server.

<pre>
IP: arma.coalitiongroup.net -OR- 149.56.29.44
Port: 2302
Password: torch
</pre>

If Prejoin is still live, you can slot anywhere as slots are not important.

'''Once the actual session begins, you are only allowed to slot as one of these three roles:'''

* Assistant Automatic Rifleman
* Grenadier
* Rifleman Anti-tank

''For more info about these roles, as well as an infantry overview, check out this [[New Infantry Guide|Guide]]''

Welcome to Coalition! Just follow a few easy steps and you'll be able to join our Arma 3 sessions. We play twice a week, on Wednesdays at 1900 CST and on Saturdays at 1700 CST.

=== Download our Modpack ===

You can obtain the modpack by either of these two methods: [[Installing with a3sync|Arma3Sync ]] or [[Installing with Swifty 3|Swifty 3]].

Both of these programs are community-developed projects that allow you to easily download, install, and keep the mods we use on our servers in sync.

=== Connect to Teamspeak ===

If you don't have Teamspeak installed already, you can find it [https://www.teamspeak.com/en/downloads/ here]

Once you have Teamspeak installed, you can join us at ''ts3.coalitiongroup.net''

=== Test Your Modpack and Server Connection ===

Now that you have the modpack downloaded and are connected to Teamspeak, you can verify that everything is working correctly by launching Arma through Swifty or A3sync, and joining our Training Server.

<pre>
IP: arma.coalitiongroup.net -OR- 149.56.29.44
Port: 2313
Password: torch
</pre>

If you are able to successfully join the server without any errors, you are ready to join our sessions!

If you run into any issues joining the server, post a screenshot of the error you are getting in the #tech-support channel in our Discord, and someone will help get you squared away.

=== Join a Wednesday or Saturday Session ===

Now that you have your modpack squared away, you're ready to join a session. 45 minutes prior to session, you should see a message in Discord letting everyone know 'Prejoin is Live!' This is a special prejoin map we run prior to session to let everyone have one final chance to make sure their mods are loaded, and practice on different weapon systems and get ready for session.

First join Teamspeak and move to the '''''Waiting to JIP / Slotting ''''' channel
[[File:JIP.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The slotting channel can be found here, at the bottom of teamspeak!]]

Rules and Regulations

2020-01-27T01:43:38Z

Llama: /* Slotting Method */

Below you will find a generalized list of rules and regulations within Coalition. They are numbered and broken down into three main sections: 

'''1.)''' Community 
'''2.)''' Session 
'''3.)''' Tertiary 

--> ''HQ reserves the right to update rules as necessary. --> It is every Company member's responsibility to read and understand the rules.'' 

==Community Rules (out-of-game)==
Community rules cover everything outside of ArmA sessions. While these rules are specific to non-gameplay elements, '''they still apply in-game'''.
===General Conduct===
====Attitude====
Your attitude while interacting with any element of the community should be adult-oriented. This means bringing up issues in an appropriate way, approaching others you may have issues with, or accurately fixing issues as you see them.
====Toxicity====
Toxicity in any form will not be tolerated in the community. While emotions do run wild during sessions, any issues that appear should be dealt with on the spot as long as it does not interfere with the [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Rules_and_Regulations#Session_Flow session flow].
====Respect====
While there isn't a specified ranking structure in Coalition, it is every active members responsibility to understand that HQ is the final say on topics. Respect should be given to all members as well as decisions made by HQ.

===Discord===
Discord usage is a requirement for all members.
====Responsibility====
You are responsible for every post you make.
====Use Appropriate Channels====
All members under the Coalition banner must use the appropriate channels in discord when posting any content. [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Discord Use this page as a quick reference on each channel's usage].
====Memes====
Memes must be relevant to any channel they're posted in. Otherwise, any safe-for-work meme can be posted in #general.
====#Battalion====
No memes or joking material of any type is to be posted in the #battalion discord channel.
====NSFW/DFAC Material====
The only channel authorized for NSFW material is the #dfac channel.
====Notifications====
Do not mute @here and @everyone. NCOs are the only personnel who can use it so it won't be spammed.

Furthermore, leave these channels un-muted for important info:
<pre>
#announcements
#repo
#session
#now-playing
</pre>
===Teamspeak===
Teamspeak is only required when attending session or playing other games with the community. However, it is recommended that you idle teamspeak to show activity.
====Channel Usage====
Channel usage is to be respected at all times. Don't attempt to push others out of a channel or interfere with what they're doing.
===Organizing in Other Games===
Any time the community has five or more '''active''' players in another game, they are expected to organize into it.

Example: Five company members begin playing an MMO. They draw the attention of others within the community who wish to join. To support the build-up in players, they should create a guild.
<hr>
 
 
==Session Rules (in-game)==
Session rules are specific elements of gameplay that generally only apply while in an official Coalition session or impromptu.
===Slotting Screen===
The slotting screen is used to slot all members into the active mission.
====Voice Activation/"Hot-micing"====
If using voice activation, a push-to-mute bind '''is required'''. Hot-mic'ing will not be tolerated.

Consistent hot-mic'ing will result in removal of voice activation ability.

====Slotting Method====
The HQ session admin will call slotting in this order: 
<pre>
Recruits and Public Players - This is for recruits and public players to slot in their allowed roles
Specialist - This is when Specialist and above to slot in any role
Soldier - This is when all Soldiers will slot in any role
Grunts - This is when all Grunts will slot in their allowed roles
</pre>

====Communicating====
Only one (1) HQ member will conduct slotting. All company members will communicate through text while at the slotting screen.
====Time limit====
Slotting should not take any longer than three (3) minutes.
====Slotting Limitations====
All community members should take roles that they are familiar with and authorized to take. 
Recruit limitations: 
<pre>
Assistant Automatic Rifleman
Rifleman (AT)
Grenadier
Vehicle Driver
MMG/MAT/HAT/SAM/ST Assistant/Spotter
</pre>
Grunt limitations: 
<pre>
Fireteam Leader (FTL)
Automatic Rifleman (AR)
Assistant Automatic Rifleman
Rifleman (AT)
Grenadier

Attack Helicopter Pilot
Attack Helicopter Co-Pilot

Transport Helicopter Pilot
Transport Helicopter Co-Pilot
Transport Helicopter Crew chief

Armor Commander
Armor Gunner
Armor Driver

MMG Team Leader
MMG Team Gunner
MMG Team Ammo-bearer

MAT Team Leader
MAT Team Gunner
MAT Team Ammo-bearer
</pre>

===Briefing Period===
The briefing period is the first ten (10) minutes after loading into the mission but may go over if the mission is complicated.
====Squad Leaders and Platoon Leaders====
During this time, all squad-leaders and above are required to meet in order to plan the mission as best as possible. After PL briefs the SLs, it is the SLs responsibility to brief their FTLs.
====Fireteam Leaders and General Infantry====
During this time, '''all''' General Infantry are to read their briefing of the situation and verify they have all the necessary gear to complete their objective(s). Once all FTLs have received their briefings from their SL, it is the FTLs responsibility to refine the plan on the fireteam level and answer any questions fireteam members may have.
===Mission Start===
Once the mission safe-start timer ends and "Mission Start" appears, weapons are live and you are expected to perform the mission to the best of your ability as described in the briefing.
===Session Flow===
You are expected to play the mission to the best of your ability from start to finish. The mission flow shouldn't be interrupted by issues or outside communication.
===="Character"====
You are expected to stay in "character" at all times. This means you don't talk about how you have a hot new co-worker while moving to an objective.
===After-action Review===
After each mission, a verbal AAR will take place in the Briefing/Slotting channel. The point in verbal after-action review is to provide ''at least'' one good thing that happened as well as one bad thing. You should follow it up with how to continue doing the good actions while mentioning how we can prevent the bad action in the future.
===Meta-gaming===
Meta gaming is relaying any information about mission-related content that shouldn't be known. This is not allowed in any shape or form.

'''Example:''' You get killed and are able to see the enemy team's location. You then choose to message someone alive on a third-party platform (like steam) about their locations.

===External Mods/Help===
No external modifications of the game client or PBOs(mods) are authorized while in session. If it's not in the modpack or it gives you an advantage over other players, you can't use it.

===In-game Issues===
====Player Issues====
If, for any reason, you are having issues with a member during a session, you should immediately ask them to stop what they're doing to affect the fun of the session for you '''IF POSSIBLE'''. Your interaction with them should not interrupt the session flow for anyone. If the matter is out of your hands, use the "Message Admin" feature.
=====Team Killing=====
All forms of team killing are frowned upon and will not be tolerated. Alternatively, "vigilante justice" is not a thing and will result in players removed from session.
=====Insubordination=====
Insubordination is the one in-game no-go we have. Plans are not always the best, and you're free to voice your opinion to your superior about it in order to change it, but DO NOT attempt to go against the platoon plan or your orders.
=====Disagreeing=====
As a leader, you're expected to support the platoon plan 100%. This is especially true to how you act about the plan around GI. Take what you are given and make the best of it.
====Technical Issues====
Use the "Message Admin" feature to have any technical issues rectified.
<hr>
 
 

==Tertiary Rules ==
===Creating Other Discord Servers===
Groups of company members are allowed to create other coalition-related discords to further game play elements in other games only. 

'''Example:''' A group of 5+ members are currently organizing a trading company in the game ''Naval Action''. To support their actions, they create another discord in order to better organize themselves.
====Limitations====
Anything Coalition-related should be kept within the main coalition discord. The only time this changes is when it encompasses multiple members playing a new game and an entire other discord will help organize them.
===Creating Session Missions===
All sessions missions must be on the latest version of the Coalition Mission Framework(CMF) found here: [http://coalitiongroup.net/framework/ Framesworks].
===Creating Mods===
Any company member is free to use any asset in the modpack to create new mods. If you plan to release the mod publicly, it must have some sort of credit pointed towards Coalition.
===Creating SQF/Scripts===
Any company member is free to use any asset in the CMF to create new scripts. If you plan to release the script publicly, it must have some sort of credit pointed towards Coalition.
===Creating Impromptu Sessions===
A Company member is free to create their own impromptu sessions. It is recommended that you post the mission ahead of time in the [http://www.coalitiongroup.net/forums/viewforum.php?f=15 "Impromptu Sessions" forum] in order to plan it ahead of time.
====Hosting====
During the impromptu, it is the hosting company member's responsibility to ensure the impromptu is run smoothly and without issue. It is '''their''' impromptu session.
====Types of missions====
Company members should expect lower turnouts to impromptu sessions in comparison to main sessions. Each impromptu mission should be scaled back and easy to plan/control.
===Content Creation===
====Producing Videos====
For rules on producing videos, [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Session_Videos click here].

= Welcome! =
:ArmA is first and foremost a community-driven game. When we desire a feature, we create it. When we desired a fraternity, a close knit element of ArmA enthusiasts and content creators - we founded it. Since October of 2016, we have been creating private organized sessions in ArmA in order to support the "arma without the bullshit" attitude. Unlike other communities, we value solid gameplay and mission design to empower players and not fake ranks. A Community like no other, comprised of individuals who embody our values of ''Teamwork'', ''Engaging Gameplay'', ''Competition'', and ''Fun''. Since then, we've swelled to well over 100 members and have our own operating procedures and in-game elements that put us above the others.

===C.) Download the Modpack===

====Download Guides====
There are currently two methods to download our modpack: swifty and A3sync.

[[Installing with Swifty 3]]

[[Installing with a3sync]]

'''Recommended startup parameters:'''
<pre> -nosplash -noLogs -skipIntro -hugepages -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi_x64 -enableHT -world=empty -maxmem=12800 -exThreads=7 -cpuCount=4 </pre>

===D.) Connect to Teamspeak===
We currently support teamspeak 3.3.2 with ACRE version 2.7.0.1010

::Teamspeak is the backbone of our community. We use teamspeak as our main verbal communication medium while out-of-game as well as how we communicate during sessions. You're expected to be active on teamspeak (even if just sitting in the AFK channel) just as you would in discord.

::In order to receive teamspeak permissions, you must receive your orientation for a Company NCO or Headquarters member first.

====How to Connect====
:1.) Download the Teamspeak 3 client [http://ftp.4players.de/pub/hosted/ts3/releases/3.1.10/ from here].

:2.) Install teamspeak

:3.) Open the client and goto Bookmarks -> Manage bookmarks

:4.) Add a new bookmark and label it "COALITION" with this connection information:

:::Address: ts3.coalitiongroup.net -OR- 149.56.29.44
:::Port: 9987
:::Password: None

:5.) '''Set your nickname for the bookmark to be whatever nickname you registered to the Coalition with'''

:6.) Connect!

=====Voice Activation=====
:For the consideration of other members, please consider using push-to-talk, especially if you have frequent background noise. Alternatively, bind a push-to-mute key and use it especially during slotting. Be aware that once you're in game, ACRE consistently disables toggle mute. If you use voice activation and you find yourself suffering from background noise while in ACRE, you can use TAB + Scroll down to reduce your volume to whisper so as to avoid bothering those around you.

:Respect is the key aspect of voice activation, always be aware of what noises you may have coming through your microphone if you choose to use it.

===E.) Do an Orientation===

:Finally, once you have your dossier posted and connected to discord, your final task is to conduct a 30min orientation on how sessions work here at Coalition. Launch the modpack through swifty and attempt to connect to the training server with the information [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Server_Information found here].

::'''Why do we require orientation and what do we go over?'''

:::Simply put, we require orientation because it cuts down on the amount of questions that you need to ask in the middle of a live mission particularly if you are new to the game or the mods we use. Orientation times vary based on how experienced a person is with ACE, ACRE, and ARMA controls. Our main goals are to make sure you had no issues with your modpack install, familiarize you with these mods, introduce you to the ideology of Coalition itself, and show off some framework features you might not see in other groups.

:::If you are an experienced player we mainly focus on how things work within the group and do a quick run through of our checklist to make sure you know whats up.

:::If you are a new player we will take the time to answer any and all questions you have about anything that you feel you need to know to transition into ARMA easily. We will also offer suggestions on certain controls or settings to help streamline your experience in-game.

:::A member of the community will contact you ASAP to get an orientation done!

:::Some of the biggest things on our checklist include but are not limited to:
::::* ACE Interaction and Medical
::::* ACRE radio keys and how to change volume settings
::::* How to use the in-game "Message Admin" system
::::* What we expect of you if you become a full member
::::* Binding a few important miscellaneous controls
::::* Answering any and all questions you have

:ArmA is first and foremost a community-driven game. When we desire a feature, we create it. When we desired a fraternity, a close knit element of ArmA enthusiasts and content creators - we founded it. Since October of 2016, we have been creating private organized sessions in ArmA in order to support the "arma without the bullshit" attitude. Unlike other communities, we value solid gameplay and mission design to empower players and not fake ranks. A Community like no other, comprised of individuals who embody our values of ''Teamwork'', ''Engaging Gameplay'', ''Competition'', and ''Fun''. Since then, we've swelled to well over 100 members and have our own operating procedures and in-game elements that put us above the others.

=====Voice Activation=====
:For the consideration of other members, please consider using push-to-talk, especially if you have frequent background noise. Alternatively, bind a push-to-mute key and use it especially during slotting. Be aware that once you're in game, ACRE consistently disables toggle mute. If you use voice activation and you find yourself suffering from background noise while in ACRE, you can use TAB + Scroll down to reduce your volume to whisper so as to avoid bothering those around you.

:Respect is the key aspect of voice activation, always be aware of what noises you may have coming through your microphone if you choose to use it.

===E.) Do an Orientation===

:Finally, once you have your dossier posted and connected to discord, your final task is to conduct a 30min orientation on how sessions work here at Coalition. Launch the modpack through swifty and attempt to connect to the training server with the information [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Server_Information found here].

::'''Why do we require orientation and what do we go over?'''

:::Simply put, we require orientation because it cuts down on the amount of questions that you need to ask in the middle of a live mission particularly if you are new to the game or the mods we use. Orientation times vary based on how experienced a person is with ACE, ACRE, and ARMA controls. Our main goals are to make sure you had no issues with your modpack install, familiarize you with these mods, introduce you to the ideology of Coalition itself, and show off some framework features you might not see in other groups.

:::If you are an experienced player we mainly focus on how things work within the group and do a quick run through of our checklist to make sure you know whats up.

:::If you are a new player we will take the time to answer any and all questions you have about anything that you feel you need to know to transition into ARMA easily. We will also offer suggestions on certain controls or settings to help streamline your experience in-game.

:::A member of the community will contact you ASAP to get an orientation done!

:::Some of the biggest things on our checklist include but are not limited to:
::::* ACE Interaction and Medical
::::* ACRE radio keys and how to change volume settings
::::* How to use the in-game "Message Admin" system
::::* What we expect of you if you become a full member
::::* Binding a few important miscellaneous controls

:ArmA is first and foremost a community-driven game. When we desire a feature, we create it. When we desired a fraternity, a close knit element of ArmA enthusiasts and content creators - we founded it. Since October of 2016, we have been creating private organized sessions in ArmA in order to support the "arma without the bullshit" attitude. Unlike other communities, we value solid gameplay and mission design to empower players and not fake ranks. A Community like no other, comprised of individuals who embody our values of ''Teamwork'', ''Engaging Gameplay'', ''Competition'', and ''Fun''. Since then, we've swelled to well over 100 members and have our own operating procedures and in-game elements that put us above the others.

===B.) Join Discord===

:Discord is our go-to chat communication medium to keep all members informed on administration, mod repository updates, announcing when other games are being played, and just generally keeping in touch with others within the community. '''It is the one thing you are required to be active on.''' You'll notice members are organized by colors in discord. Purple is new members, green are full-time members, and red members are admins.

====Connecting Guide====
# ) Download and install the desktop discord client [https://discordapp.com/download from here].
# ) Once installed, click our personalized discord [https://discord.gg/HkeTRQ3 link here to connect].
# ) Await permissions to be given to you.

====Channels====
In order to separate banter from mission design conversations, the discord is split up into different channels. All with their own functions. Some channels will only be avaliable to you when you’ve become a full member of the community.</center>

:'''Welcome and Admin'''
::Welcome:
:::A self-explanatory welcome page.

<pre> -nosplash -noLogs -skipIntro -hugepages -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi_x64 -enableHT -world=empty -maxmem=12800 -exThreads=7 -cpuCount=4 </pre>

===D.) Connect to Teamspeak===
We currently support teamspeak 3.3.2 with ACRE version 2.7.0.1010

::Teamspeak is the backbone of our community. We use teamspeak as our main verbal communication medium while out-of-game as well as how we communicate during sessions. You're expected to be active on teamspeak (even if just sitting in the AFK channel) just as you would in discord.

::In order to receive teamspeak permissions, you must receive your orientation for a Company NCO or Headquarters member first.

====How to Connect====
:1.) Download the Teamspeak 3 client [http://ftp.4players.de/pub/hosted/ts3/releases/3.1.10/ from here].

:2.) Install teamspeak

:3.) Open the client and goto Bookmarks -> Manage bookmarks

:4.) Add a new bookmark and label it "COALITION" with this connection information:

:::Address: ts3.coalitiongroup.net -OR- 149.56.29.44
:::Port: 9987
:::Password: None

:5.) '''Set your nickname for the bookmark to be whatever nickname you registered to the Coalition with'''

:6.) Connect!

=====Voice Activation=====
:For the consideration of other members, please consider using push-to-talk, especially if you have frequent background noise. Alternatively, bind a push-to-mute key and use it especially during slotting. Be aware that once you're in game, ACRE consistently disables toggle mute. If you use voice activation and you find yourself suffering from background noise while in ACRE, you can use TAB + Scroll down to reduce your volume to whisper so as to avoid bothering those around you.

:Respect is the key aspect of voice activation, always be aware of what noises you may have coming through your microphone if you choose to use it.

===E.) Do an Orientation===

:Finally, once you have your dossier posted and connected to discord, your final task is to conduct a 30min orientation on how sessions work here at Coalition. Launch the modpack through swifty and attempt to connect to the training server with the information [http://coalitiongroup.net/wiki/index.php/Server_Information found here].

::'''Why do we require orientation and what do we go over?'''

:::Simply put, we require orientation because it cuts down on the amount of questions that you need to ask in the middle of a live mission particularly if you are new to the game or the mods we use. Orientation times vary based on how experienced a person is with ACE, ACRE, and ARMA controls. Our main goals are to make sure you had no issues with your modpack install, familiarize you with these mods, introduce you to the ideology of Coalition itself, and show off some framework features you might not see in other groups.

:::If you are an experienced player we mainly focus on how things work within the group and do a quick run through of our checklist to make sure you know whats up.

:::If you are a new player we will take the time to answer any and all questions you have about anything that you feel you need to know to transition into ARMA easily. We will also offer suggestions on certain controls or settings to help streamline your experience in-game.

:::A member of the community will contact you ASAP to get an orientation done!

:::Some of the biggest things on our checklist include but are not limited to:
::::* ACE Interaction and Medical
::::* ACRE radio keys and how to change volume settings
::::* How to use the in-game "Message Admin" system
::::* What we expect of you if you become a full member
::::* Binding a few important miscellaneous controls
::::* Answering any and all questions you have

= All done! What now? =
