Maps

  • OG 
    • 3 quilins for defense.
    • 3 ifrits and 2 quilins for attackers.
  • Church
    • 2 box trucks, 3 quilins, and 1 ifrit for defense.
    • 2 ifrits and 3 quilins for attackers

    • 3 ifrits and 2 quilins for attackers.

How it works: Best of 5 rounds tournament style single eliminations

Each team will have 5 mins at the beginning of the match to gear up and 2 mins between rounds to re-gear. Its default Arma gear system, clothing and guns on the left, ammo and first aid kits on the right. 

When the rounds start you will be teleported to map locations. There is a 10 second lock delay where you can't move or get out of your vehicles. There is a 10 minute timer on all fights with a shrinking zone which will slowly kill players outside of the zone. On OG & Church, the kill zone will shrink to 50m, then to 25m with 1 minute remaining. When the timer runs out, defenders will win unless attackers outnumber defenders more than 2:1.(For example, 2 defenders will win against 4 attackers, but lose to 5 attackers.)

On Alpha cap, the kill zone will shrink down to 1m before the clock runs out. The last team with a player alive wins.

Known bugs:

  • If entering/exiting vehicle at the sametime as the TP timer hits 0 its a 50/50 chance you will not be TPed and you’ll just have to wait for the next round.

Common questions:

Q)  Do we need redgull?

No, there is no fatigue on the server, nor will you get the slight redgull boost.

Q) Are keybinds the same?

Most of the common are the same gun on back, ear plugs, etc

Q) How do we know what map we are fighting?

There will be a meeting with gang leaders prior determining who is fighting what map and who is attacking/defending. Then posted on the public bracket.

Q) What happens if a player's game crashes or disconnects?

Log back in as quickly as possible. The match will not stop. Your team will just be down a person until they reconnect.

Q) What happens if the server crashes?

The game will pick back up where it left with only the active round restarting.

Q) How do we join the server?

When it is your team's turn to fight you will be given a server password. Join the correct faction assigned either independent or civ.

Q) I’m on restrictions. How will I know if I’m approved or not?

Register anyways, you will receive a message if you are not approved. Also why we have the sub spots.

If you have any other questions ask them in the comments.

great idea add the rng red name in smoke feature to gang wars

It will probably be added to next years we try to change and fix different things every GW it's come a long way and we only do it once a year so it's not as prioritized as the main servers
