For new ARMA players

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! We also suggest you attend pre-join 45 minutes prior to session start. During pre-join you can test the modpack on our server as well as ask any questions that you might have!
