TacR December!​

• Starting in December, every Section Practice (SP) conducted in December (up until Furlough on 18DEC21), needs to please be conducted on our Arma 3 Tactical Realism Public Server. No exceptions! We need to seed the public server as much as possible to increase recruitment, showcase the Cav, and have fun while doing it!
  • SL's can either just do a free SP and play the AO, or they can focus on a topic and conduct a regular SP, just on TacR. We'll leave it up to the SL's/Platoons/Companies to decide what they do for SP while on TacR. Please consult your CoC for guidance.
  • As part of this, SL's need to make sure they've submitted a ticket to get Zeus access on TacR if they haven't already so they can help facilitate SP's there for their Section. Platoon Staff+ should also do the same if they haven't already. Everyone's got ~2-3 weeks notice to get this done (if they haven't already). On Sunday, when TacR will be crowded (mostly Bravo Troop), please just share Zeus and make it work as best you can.
