[Soviethooves]

Hello community,

Today we are happy to announce that the ADS (Ares Defence Service) Project is ready to be publicly launched! I’m sure that everyone has questions about the ADS Project and while I hope a lot of your questions are answered in this post, if you do have any questions feel free to post them below.

So, what is ADS?

Ares Defence Services, is the name of our project which is an expansion into Arma 3. With a persistent live server during the week and planned, staff and player driven, narrative operations on the weekend there’s always something to be taking part in.
Right now we’re running Antistasi to allow us to disrupt conventional forces on the island while we prepare for the weekly operations. We have some very exciting operations planned from now through to the end of the year.
ADS is open to anybody, no training or experience required. I invite everyone to come along and take part in one of our operations or even just hop on the server during the week and complete some objectives.

How are we handling our staffing?

Currently, our staff our pulled from highly skilled players, who have experience in managing this sort of community.

Administration
@"OG_Soviethooves": Project Lead - Multiple Years of Zeus.
@Doctor Internet: Business Liaison & Deputy Lead - Task Force 707, XO, 9 Months.

Moderation
@Bambo: Media Liaison - Experience in making @Daley angry by crashing helos into FOBs.
@"Cole_": 40 Commando, OCdt, 2 Years; 7th Infantry / 20th Armoured Infantry, 1 Year, LCpl; 5th SFG, Lt.; Task Force 707, 1Lt / Training Officer.
@Dick: Task Force 707, CO / Zeus.

What are missions going to be like?

Individual missions will be varied, with the unit is based around PMC operations. A mission could be supporting NATO forces, covert operations against Russia or delivering humanitarian supplies to those in need, with various objectives, resulting in dynamic gameplay and varied storylines on a week by week basis.

How do I play?

Finally after two days of pissing around with MyBB because it really doesn't like making groups, we're good to release. Fun times.

Aye, though we've got people on board who know what they're doing, and have run Arma groups in the past.
There's a lot of combined experience in that list there.

Arma has quite frequent sales, normally on places like Steam and Humblebundle, would definitely recommend picking it up if you find a good deal. Only issue is that you kinda need to pick up the big DLC like Apex, the minor ones will just give you an annoying watermark every now and then.
