Structure

The Coalition uses a very basic, but purposeful ranking and grouping structure. Ranks only determine veterancy within the community, but groups determine your ability to take specified roles in ArmA sessions, determine what privileges you receive, and how heavy your opinion is taken on subjects that affect the community.

Rank Roles

• NCOs:

NCOs are the admins of the group and all have a specific job and/or role to maintain to ensure the steady operation of the community as whole. NCOs are volunteers who dedicate countless hours to improving the community, and as such, should be treated with respect for doing so. This is where the buck stops.

• Specialists:

Specialists are the senior ranking members of the company. They are players who have been around long enough to know how the community works and have been chosen to help with administration duties if they choose to. As such, specialists should be of high regard to all company and barracks members.

• Veterans:

Veterans are company members who have defined themselves through contributions to the group and have been in the community for at least six months.

• Soldiers:

Soldiers are company members who have been deemed active members of the community both within and out of ArmA. This is the first rank you are promoted to once you show effort to lead in sessions and help to improve the community as a whole.

• Grunts:

Grunts are the newest company members. They have passed peer-review, been in the group for atleast 1 month, and now have access to everything the company offers.

• Draftee:

Due to the flaky nature of the ArmA community, all new-joins join the group at this rank. Every draftee goes through a peer-review process to ensure coalition is a good fit for him and he is a good fit for the community. Draftee's are scared, confused, and quiet creatures who you can normally find running into machine gun fire at the most inopportune times.

Group Structure

Coalition also uses a three-group system in order to keep the community organized. Each group serves a purpose both inside and out of the community.

Recruits

Simply put, the recruit group is the entry group into the community. Every recruit's job is to take part in the community, learn how to be proficient while in-game, and ultimately, play ArmA. Every recruit also undergoes a Peer-Review process by all major members of The Company. Recruits can be peer-reviewed out of the community due to lack of activity, inability to learn how to play ArmA proficiently, and not interacting with the community as a whole. Recruits are limited to AAR, RAT, Driver, and Ammo Bearer roles in order to learn how our structure and chain of command works. Recruits also do not have access to XMLs until becoming apart of the company.

Company

The company is the backbone of the community. All members of the company are considered full members of Coalition and are granted access to XMLs, Mission Developing and Design, the CMF, and various private discord channels. Company members are also charged with the future of the community through peer-review as well as taking leadership roles during ArmA sessions. All company members are expected to understand and follow the Coalition SOPs both in-game and out.

Specialists are company members with added responsibilities but no added authority. They are dedicated members who are the first line in completing menial tasks. Don't make the mistake of thinking specialists are different - while they do work with the admins, they primarily work with the company to make sure their needs are met. If you have any problems with the group overall, you should talk to a specialist first.

Headquarters

The brain of the community and ArmA sessions. Each headquarters member has a specific role they play in the administration and/or technical side of the group. All headquarters members, regardless of rank, are considered staff members.
