What is this?


A persistent mod for ARMA 3, similar to Antistasi in concept but further developed and polished. You take the role of Tanoan rebels, trying to remove the NATO invaders from your land. You will do this through various attacks on military installations, attacks and assassinations on high ranking NATO officials and rebel traitors, export and import of various (ill)legal wares and by securing islands to fuel your agenda.

Comparable to the the Vietnam war, you are outnumbered by the invaders and will have to use your environment, the local population and your wits to beat the enemy.

Does it take place on Altis?

It does not, you will require ARMA 3: APEX to take part, as it uses Tanoa as the setting.

Current features

- Single player, co-op and dedicated server compatible
- GTA-inspired wanted/stealth system
- Dynamic political system with regional stability
- Build camps, bases, houses, workshops, observation posts and more
- Buy, sell, import and export just about in any-game item/vehicle/weapon for currency (depends on certain factors, see wiki)
- Capture towns and military objectives, island by island
- Dynamic economy/Regional pricing/Trade
- Buy, sell and lease real estate with prices affected by regional politics
- Buy economic objectives such as plantations and a factory
- Reverse-engineer any weapons, items and vehicles to produce in the factory
- Fast travel to any owned real estate or camp
- Attach static weapons to offroads at your workshop
- Manipulate the markets with guns or piles of cash
- Recruit and arm civilians, get them to loot for you
- Committed to creating a living and breathing Tanoa where anything can happen
- Complete ACE3 integration
- Advanced AI provided by the ever-developing VCOM AI scripts
- Ongoing development and addition of features
- Support for more maps planned


Important stuff below, please read before playing

Save and Load
Overthrow includes a persistent save option that will save your progress and everything you own no matter where it is on the map. Press 'Y' and go to 'Options' then 'Persistent save'. We recommend that you "restart" the mission and load this persistent save as opposed to loading an arma save, this will ensure that your map starts off fresh and gives you maximum performance for each play-session.

If you do need to load an arma save for whatever reason and your 'Y' menu stops working, find a 'map' object (you started with one in your home) and use the scroll-wheel menu to choose "Reset UI".

Required Mods
- ACE3 - This will improve your experience and Overthrow gameplay relies on it heavily, however if you know what you are doing, you are free to configure/remove ACE modules at your discretion. "Advanced Medical" is available as a mission parameter when you start the mission, but "Basic Medical" is currently a requirement.

Supported Mods
- Any vehicle mods that add civilian faction vehicles (they will spawn on the streets)
- Any weapon mods (they will show up on criminals and possibly on gun dealers)
- Any vehicle mods that add OPF and IND faction vehicles (you can unlock them via faction missions and produce them in the factory)

Included Mods
DO NOT install these, they are INCLUDED. Having them loaded will cause problems.
- VCOM AI by Genesis
- Advanced Towing by Duda

Your MOD section in the ARMA 3 launcher should look like this one all content is installed:

All of this is on the workshop so it isn't as much of a headache to install as other content is


Anyone can join as long as they have a microphone, Apex, aren't idiots and are willing to work as a team. No lone wolfing can be done in this mod. Separate reminder is that any bad behavior is on a zero tolerance policy, and will result in you getting banned from the server instantly.

Current players: @Powley @slugman @Dazza @Evil @Nova_ @WeakenedHen5 @Ein @TinPan Warrior @Zomba @Mendel

S/O to all the players of the old ARMA server, this will be something for you

Count me in yo. I have a pretty strong feeling this'd be enough for me to get back into ARMA provided it's active.

It's been active. As much as I'd like to bring a lot more people in, I also don't. We will see, larger team based ops tend to attract idiocy and lack of communication. Hopefully this doesn't happen and I will be cracking down on idiocy a lot.
