SPECIAL FORCES "we were never there" Special Forces is no ordinary clan, it is a clan that prides itself on pvp warfare with a special forces theme to it. We are a secretive organization being that when we conduct our operations in secret on servers with no tags. Our operations remain secret to only the members of the unit so players cannot counter act us while we are on server. You will not know where there unless we want you to know we are there hence the unit motto “we were never there”. While most clans focus on providing a basic course with some instruction others just allow new members to join at will, special forces is different being that all new members have to earn the respect of the senior members of the unit in order to graduate and become operators, we do this through RCT. Who are we do you ask to provide you this training? All of us have either served with the military, are ex serving or have been part of a military clan before. The training we provide is no bull**** and it’s something you can actually use. RCT We begin by selecting our future operators through RCT or reinforcement cycle training through this training we constantly watch candidates for any flaws they might have or any issues they might have with the current serving unit operators. If candidates make it through the course they are then accepted into the unit and can begin working on operationswith their fellow operators. REQUIREMENTS All potential candidates will require the following in order to be part of special forces Be of 16 years and over Be able to speak english Arma II and Arma III Mods DayZ, ACE, ACRE Team speak 3 Finally have time set aside to be able to participate in activities TRAINING To become an operator a candidate must first go through reinforcement cycle training or RCT, if the candidate makes it through RCT without dropping out then the candidate will be given operator status. RCT consists of the following elements Recon/Patrol Course Here candidates will be taught how to conduct recon level operations and develop patrolling techniques. To include a few examples this means close target reconnaissance, path finding and identifying areas of interest. Advanced Combat Application (PVP course) In this module candidates learn a variety of different methods to engage enemy players as well as advanced AI. This is core of your training to become an operator which will include a sniper component, a urban course component and a advanced conventional component. Hearts and Minds In this module we teach candidates how to use random players to assist you in achieving your mission objectives. To win the battle you might have to rely on allies to help you and that’s what we will teach you here how to get average players to fight for you or to support you in operations. Escape and evasion Escape and evasion training is designed to help candidates develop skills to be able to deal with being captured and how to escape if you are captured. The course is as the name suggests you will be taught how to escape if confronted with extreme odds and to evade enemy detection so that you can RV with other SF elements. Insertion and Extraction techniques This is the most exciting part of the training doing things you’d never thought you could do be doing like submarine insertions, HALOS (we will teach you how to deploy properly), Rappelling and much more. SO WHAT DO YOU GET OUT OF IT? If you make it through training and graduate to becoming a new a operator you will have a skill set not many people have out there. You will be part of a team that cares about you and will be there for you when you need them. We are flexible being that once you graduate you can work when you want to so long as you tell us when you’re going to be back so we can work around it. There is no “yes sir no sir” we greet each other first name basis and the leadership works with its members not against them. There is no micromanagement once you make it to operator if you are given an assignment you will be given mission command we don’t tell you how to do your job because you already know it. If you wish to know more about the type of operations you are getting yourself into i advise you to visit our website. For more information into special forces as an operator or if you want to apply either visit us at http://1stspecialforces.enjin.com/ or pm me via our website. SUPPORT ATTACHMENTS If you want to join SF not as an operator we have positions available for support attachments. Support attachments assist operators in a number of capacities including; air support, technical support and intelligence. If you would like further information on this, then please visit http://1stspecialforces.enjin.com/ or pm me via our website.

situation update We have made tremendous strides in the last week, members have been flowing in and operations have been successful. Our approach now is to establish both a promotion system and an award system that recognizes work, success and teamwork. Im proud to see how the unit has grown and the level of experience now within its ranks. So the plan for 2014? We will keep recruiting and training new operators as they come in and establish tighter bonds with the arma community. Eventually we will be moving into DayZ standalone however with this we must be prepared and i believe that we will be able to be prepared through continued use of arma 3 training servers. If you or anyone you know is interested in special forces please contact us at our enjin site located on the main page of this forum.

We at special forces have always tried to improve our camouflage and concealment but today we have finally made a breakthrough! Behold safes that have optic camouflage!

Thank you for your question Stand alone is looking to be the most complex environment our unit would operate in, we will be looking at conducting operations on stand alone in february at the earliest. This is because we need to run a new suite of first aid components as well as survival. We will still be preparing for action in stand alone through recon of public servers, however the bulk of our preparation for stand alone will be on our arma 3 servers where we have the mechanisms to aid us in pvp engagements and squad tactics. If you or anyone else has any further questions on our unit i'm available to to discuss them further either via our team speak or by personal messenger.

Situation update Our target operations have started on epoch we will be commencing with base clearance operations and player engagement. Our training server is almost ready to be completed features include an urban assault range with breaching capability, a 360 degree firing range and upgrades to the other rangers. With further improvements we will have the training tools to fight in any scenario. DayZ standalone is out aswell and with its conception we have sent additional operators into chernarus plus to start preliminary recon of the map. Their main objectives are to locate high traffic areas, good loot locations and suitable base locations. This is a daunting task as the map is believed to be over 225 km sq, so it will take some time. We are still actively recruiting and those interested in special forces will have a chance to fight in the unit. Lastly we will be attaching ourselves to the 7th Cav early next year to conduct ARMA 3 operations with them, our previous training with the 23rd has been canceled due to their organisation showing signs of poor judgement towards our unit and will be discontinuing support permanently until further notice.

special forces are now conducting operations on unknown servers, the objective to cause as much havoc as possible. This operation will run for 3 weeks during that time we will run close target reconnaissance, snap ambushing and base attacks. we are still taking members and running through training where possible to accommodate future operators.

We at our clan understand that their are many of you out there that have been deceived by clans claiming to be professional special forces mil sim clans, from understanding this we have decided to open up our team speak to the public to allow a direct approach to answer questions about special forces and what we are about by its members. I encourage the wider community to visit our team speak and have your questions answered, furthermore we have decided that a direct entry course is not the best course for future members and have decided to allow on job training, members seeking to be operators will be trained so by our instructors on a basis that suits the needs of all future candidates. I look forward to seeing you in team speak 216.127.64.128: 9226 (armycompartmentedelements.teamspeak3.com)

This will be the last bump

Moreover, the Garmin for Android is suitable even for those traveling by public transport, providing schedules of trains, buses and planes of the city where you are. Well, as only Russian talking immediately wanted to see .You used to hear about the director Walter Salles ? Me neither ! If we had an unknown director created something similar , the road at the Cannes , Berlin , Moscow film festivals it would be ensured show on the First in the category " The movie is not for everyone" (like " The movie is not for morons , workers and peasants" with applause court intellectuals also guaranteed 10 years without creating anything more , he would have basked in the glory in the States, director Walter Salles , perhaps modestly overall , but forgotten today , as such directors darkness And there tomorrow once -unknown John Smith will create another cult or at least , just a good movie I have finished the translations here and i am now putting this post for action by the moderators as a breach of membership on these forums Further to my last pacman your application was sent to you within 10 minutes of your post (a record)

Matt, Arma 3 is a critical part of training in order to become an operator and is also another integral part of our operations. We use Arma 3 because the stand alone model constructed will have better player interactions (arma 3 has this already), further more we have a lot more options available to us for training in this game. If you would like to partake on the course being run on the 30th i sugguest that you purchase a copy or wait for the next intake in febuary-march. I wish we could make allowances for this but we cant we need people to be able to fight both on arma 2 and arma 3.

SF is a fun group where we stop clan bs and actually have a good time, there is flexibility in operations view our recruitment thread for more details.

Special Forces have operational flexibility which means you can choose when u want to play! Visit the special forces thread for more info

we teach how to mitigate ping in combat, ping spikes between the 2 countries differ by 200 which isn't alot considering that you can still engage enemy players successfully there are also fibre optic connections which further provide better latency for operations and while this great in the US it is still being constructed in australia if you would like to inquire further please talk to me via pm, the training server however will have good fps and ping (we have tested this) this is to ensure that the quality of our next generation of operators is to a high standard, i wouldnt play on a laggy server and i dont expect our operators to

its an international clan that gains members from around the world, We would love to get more Australians however we have only received 2 applications from oz

I want to talk today about operational flexibility in Special Forces.... I have recently received some information pertaining to how we actually work for missions and operations Preliminaries When missions or operations are handed down by the CO, missions will have a single objective whilst operations will have multiple objectives and usually require further planning by HQ and the team leaders. At the beginning of the week a request will be sent out to the unit for operators, this request will include missions available for deployment (including solo missions or groups). Unit members have the option to attend missions or operations as they see fit. Indeed operators are allowed to come and go as they please however they must keep in contact with the unit as dictated on the UCMJ. Missions Once the quota has been filled for a mission the unit moves into what is called the deployment phase where they have a quick training session to tackle what they might find on their mission. It is also during this phase HQ will prepare a briefing to the operator or team leader so they can have enough time to prepare for a mission. Missions can last for a few hours to a few days but have flexible time frames to when they can be completed. Once a mission has been completed a debriefing is done and the after action report is stored under unit patrol records. Typical missions are stated are above but i will elaborate some missions here Search and destroy missions (find an enemy patrol and destroy it) Ambushing (find a critical choke point and ambush an enemy group) Rescue missions (we might identify i high threat area where bambies are being targeted we go in there and give them support, there are also situations where we have to rescue bambies from high threat areas and have to extract them) Recon (we usually conduct recon on a server that we haven't been on and usually send in an element to identify what the situation is like on the ground) HVT (HVT stands for high value target we identify a particular enemy player that has been causing havoc on a server we go in find him and kill him. When we don't get a name tag we go off a screen shot of his face and go into detailed intelligence about the target) Operations Operations are unit activities involving individuals to multiple teams of operators and usually last for a few days to a few weeks and involve multiple objectives. This will be carried out when enough operators are available to participate. The training sessions before deployment are generally longer due to the nature of complications that can occur during operations. Personnel and Equipment Operators work either alone or in small man teams (3-6) and may include multiple elements such as survivors, air power ect. Equipment is usually sourced through preparation by advance elements however where possible a load out is chosen by the operator for solo missions or by the team leader for group missions. Rapping up.... In conclusion our resources are dictated from what we can get from server we operate in as with additional personnel. Special Forces will always try to en devour to gain essential resources however in the end it depends on what we can get at the time. Lastly we do not solely operate on DayZ we also operate on Wasteland and TLR.
