Welcome to Arma 3: Tanoa Tensions.
Please watch the trailer, it took me a solid week of my time to make and i'm very proud of it.
What is this thread?
This thread is the official thread for Nova's Awesome Dedicated server for Arma 3. It will provide information for addons required and a small roster and signups to participate, these nightly ops are easy to join and for the more casual person. Be warned though that Arma 3 itself is not a casual game.
Firstly, let me introduce Tanoa Tensions.
What is Tanoa Tensions?
Tanoa Tensions is a campaign that will last 6+ individual sessions, lasting upward of 2-4 hours each, following the story of the players. A group of journalists sent into the archipelago of Tanoa to document a tense ceasefire. Things dont go to plan, and they must fight their way through Guerrilla and CSAT forces and regroup with NATO, to escape Tanoa.
Being a serious scenario I have made real effort to make a reality, this will be a serious operation that i'll expect people to "Lightly" roleplay. Just roleplay as yourself, and not do weird shit or complain about things like FPS or anything (over voice communications at least, which is the primary method of communication). your life is to be taken seriously, as an incapacitation could mean significant losses for your team in a number of ways.
So what do I need to join:?
A serious attitude with a willingness to be patient and learn.
Arma 3 and the APEX DLC. You'll probably want the other dlc (well worth the money) to remove advertisements.
ACE3. Advanced Combat Environment is a mod that ups people options, provides lots of functionality and an advanced medical system. Absolutely fantastic framework.
Community based addons. Essentially is a basemod that many other mods need to function.
Task force Radio. Allows connection to Teamspeak 3 to emit your teamspeak voice from your player character in game. Also enables the useage of radio systems in order to communicate long distances, effected by range and terrain.
Optionals. (google these)
JSRS sound mod
Blastcore
SThud
More information will be posted in the coming days. But here's the first event.
Tuesday the 7th of Feb, 7-GMT.
I will be holding nightly ops for people who want to play Arma or get to grips with the game and it's systems. Tomorrow's op will be a training op. If you aren't serious or serious about learning, don't bother attending.
If you do wish to attend, you wont need Apex. Just join Nova's Awesome Dedicated Server via the launcher (94.23.180.243:2303) and the launcher will prompt if you'd like to download the necessary mods via workshop. The only thing you'll need to do is install TFAR's Plugin.
Do to so, simply right click the mod in the launcher and open in explorer, navigate through the @tfar>Teamspeak folder and double click the file within. Install this file, restart team-speak and you're done.
If you'd like to ask any questions about our nightly ops, the server, me, the video, the campaign or ANYTHING ELSE - Post below and i'll answer and edit it into the Q&A Section beneath.
Here's a quick roster for the server - Please post below with the following format if you'd like to be placed on the roster. This will allow you to join games, and show me that you've read this thread.
Note that I am -not- accepting marksmen as a generalised role. It's stupid to have more marksmen than actual infantry. Specialised roles are fine, but ask me if you want to do one on the day of the op. Due to the ace system medic is harder. Message me for additional training.
Tonight there will be a training session for those who'd like to get familiar with arma 3 and ACE3. Here's a quick list of the topics that will be covered.
I will post more in the coming days, including screenshots and further explanation of the mission and it's systems. for now, the video and this post currently is enough, i need a damn break. and some sleep, that would be nice.
Jaggles (J.C): AT Rifleman
Powley: SL/Rifleman
Gr4ss: Rifleman/Unique

- If a friendly unit dies, they never truly die, and must either be stabilised and revived on scene or brought back to an established base to recover
- If the above is not completed, then that particular player is left behind, and made prisoner of war. He is subsequently made an objective in the next mission, and is to be rescued then.
