Yes. All members require a working microphone.
Being a member of other MILSIM/REALISM groups similar or different to ASOT regardless of times of play are not permitted. If you are, or wish to get involved in a RP community or other group, you are welcome to do so. For example, this would include groups that play on separate nights AND also use a significantly varied play style, such as a Star Wars or fantasy community.
Please confirm with our staff if your alternate group conflicts.
Yes.
Yes. You must have a legitimate copy of ARMA 3 as our servers use Battleye anti-cheat software. If it is discovered you are using an illegal copy or using cheats of any kind, you will be banned from the community immediately.
Although encouraged, you will not require them to join our servers. Although, you will not be able to use certain vehicles and equipment without getting the annoying watermark appear on your screen. We recommend picking them up when they go on sale.

Any other mission mod lists will be posted in the discord noticeboard channel.
Occasionally PvP events are hosted in house but our main focus is PvE. These events are optional for members and will generally not interfere with our weekend night missions.
No, however, running the community does carry some costs that are mostly paid for by LTGEN Thomas and his head staff. Any donations are truly appreciated and will significantly help with covering those bills each month. All donations only go towards the community costs, no personal profits are kept, ever!
Our main operations are run weekly on Saturdays and Sundays which are the one we ask members to commit to.
Once you become a member, you will be given the opportunity to join 1 Platoon, 2 Platoon or 3 Platoon.
- 1 Platoon conducts missions on Saturday
- 2 Platoon conducts missions on Sunday
- 3 Platoon (support assets) support both Saturday and Sunday
We also run mid-week missions and trainings but these are optional.
Additionally, new recruits will attend the initial training sessions before they are allowed to attend operations and will receive the rank of Private. These sessions are hosted regularly.
To see our current strength and manning, please refer to the ORBAT tab located at the top of the page.
Unfortunately not. Generally we do not allow members of the public or from other communities to join in our operations. If you are a representative of another community or smaller group, please speak to a member of HQ about attending.
Generally not but there have been instances where we have conducted joint operations with other MILSIM groups.
If you wish to conduct a joint operation with our community and you are a representative of a community, please approach a member of ASOT Staff or HQ about this in our Discord.
