Milbase Sever: FK1 Standard FK Modset Note: Milbase will be going on a short break over the Christmas holiday so there wont be a planned session on the 23rd Dec. Intro For those who do not know what milbase is to put it short its a normal fk mission with three differences: A) Your assets are chosen by you with the approval of your commander. B) Your assets must be all prepped and sent to the combat zone by your own means from your main HQ. Normally by drving or flying them there. C) On the day there is no real hard limit on number of assets (Unless zeus or command choose to) or who can take them (Tags wont apply). All levels of skill are welcome! Overall it is a very relaxed fun environment, you can drop in and out of the mission where needed so long as if you do take a command role (OPCOM, BASECOM or ATC) you hand the responsiblity to someone else before you leave. The mission will start at 9:15pm/ 15 mins after the end of 1st main and will be on FK1 FK rules apply. Photo Credit: from @Malbryn, model @Mesa and me during last weeks session.

S.O.G. Prairie Fire DLC required! This is a remake of Fubar's Recondo series missions to make them ACE compatible. Fubar gave me permission to modify his missions and the originals can be found here. Scripted mission using Malbryn's Framework 🤓 Minimal Modset as you already have most of them. Recondo Intro: "Return from Nha Trang" MISSION BRIEFING Recondo "Recondo" is a Co-op missions for up to 5 players. The story follows a LRRP team (Long-Range Reconnaissance Patrol) with the 101st Airborne during Vietnam. "Return from Nha Trang" is the first mission in a short campaign with five missions. The missions follow a coherent story with the same characters and their deployment and experiences in Vietnam in the Central Highlands during 1967. Intro: "Return from Nha Trang" This is the first mission and introduction to five men assigned to a LRRP (Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol) with the 101st Airborne stationed near Plei Ku Airbase. They have just returned from a three-week stint at Recondo school in Nha Trang. Staff Sergeant Campbell, the Team Leader of your team, "Recon Team Druid", had already passed Recondo school, and has served with a LRRP before. He was recently sent back to Recondo school to train some new wannabes, and shortly after assemble a new LRRPS team with the 101st in the Central Highlands. Notes This mission is more of an intro and set piece and has only one combat engagement in particular. Follow-on missions in the series have more combat opportunities. At mission end if the players want to play the next mission in the series, then we will do so. The next mission is Recondo Chapter 1: "Fields of Fire". Credits The following persons helped with the original Recondo series by Fubar. Skullbilts for his initial playtest and recommendation for adding sounds when new sub chats are started.

November 2022 Modset Update After many weeks of hard work, it's here! The latest update to our main Arma 3 modset. This modset was unique in that it's the first time FK opened to the modtesting to everyone Regs+ and their vote weighed equally to staff members who voted. The modset was determined by the FK community. Therefore, if you have a complaint you should look to your left and right and ask your buddy, who either participated in the mod-testing or didn't. FK staff & techs would like to thank all who contributed for their hard work during the process. Now, onto the new FK November 2022 modset. On the faction side we have made some changes, BW Mod and Redd'n'Tanks have been removed and AMF has been added. It's not perfect, but is in active development and provides the community with a new faction. We have refreshed our map list, adding back in some favorites along with some new maps, notable of which is Fapovo Island. The great map modder Jerichron will be applying his magic to give us an improved version of the map. On the gear, uniforms and equipment side of things, we have replaced Military Gear Pack (MGP) with USP Gear & Uniforms AIO. USP AIO brings most of the same items, uniforms and equipment as MGP. We have also included the mod, ACE3 Arsenal Extended for USP AIO which allows for a new more compact way of choosing the options for uniforms, vests, etc. It allows for a smaller or better organized menu. kMaN has made a short video explaining this new feature afforded by the new mods. On the vehicles side, the community decided to stay with what is still some of the better mods that provide vehicles, ie - RHS series, 3CB, Firewill's aircraft, etc. Unfortunately, there hasn't been much regarding new mods for vehicles. AMF will be the sole mod to brings the community new vehicles. For Zeus', we have a new Breach mod which adds new items for players to try to breach doors To celebrate the new FK November 2022 modset, kMaN has ported three of his scripted missions, using @Malbryn's MalFramework to support the new modset. They can be played at any time or in-leu of a main mission Zeus ran mission on FK1 or 2. You don't need to subscribe to his missions as they are on our servers already, but you can see them on the Workshop: Operation Ice Fire I (USP) Operation Ice Fire II (USP) Operation Ice Fire III (USP) One of our goal's for the November 2022 modset was to try and bring something new, ie - weapons, equipment, helmets, vests, accessories, immersion, system, maps, etc. As a result, despite the number of mods increasing, the modset has only grown by a modest ~9 GBs which is still under the hard limit of 75 GB. Current (May 2022) Modset Size (GB): 65 New Modset (November 2022) Size (GB): 72 Removed Mods(May 2022) Size (GB): 12 Current (May 2022) Mods Count: 112 New (November 2022) Mods Count: 79 Anyway, onto some useful information. The modset will be live on FK 1 from Thursday, the 8th of December. Mod Preset & Installation The simplest way to get the new FK November 2022 modset ready will be to import it into the Arma launcher. FK7 MTT Server FK7 has been setup with the new modset for testing, the modset above can be used on the server and from the go-live date the same modset will be used so you do not have to download two different modsets. The password on FK7 has been reverted from the MTT password to the same password format that is used for all of our Arma servers. Below you will find a full list of what's come in, and what was removed.
