Our rules here
We expect you to behave this way, and we would like to especially highlight our code of conduct:

1. I am a part of UNITAF, a group of people with diverse backgrounds and cultures. I will show respect to all members.
2. In order to facilitate the administrative activities and operational leadership of UNITAF I will respect and uphold the chains of command.
3. I will make a conscious effort to learn our SOPs over time and apply them.
4. I will strive to demonstrate good sportsmanship and integrity at all times.
5. If conflict should arise between members, I will step back, inform a member of Staff or a NCO and abstain from retaliating.
6. If I believe a member did something well, I will praise them in public.
7. If I believe a member did something wrong, I will talk it out and correct it in private.
8. I will never forget that I am a member of UNITAF, a member of one team with one goal.

Note: The "Rifleman" Role can equip Items of Light Anti-Tank, Medium Anti-Tank, Anti-Air, or Automatic Rifleman

SOPs

For UNITAF members, our SOPs are the same as during our other missions.

For our guests, you find all of our SOPs here.

How to connect

The best way to set up your mods for our Server is to use the Arma Launcher. Go to Servers and find our public server. Click on join. It will ask you if you want the Launcher to take care of setting up your mod. Say yes. All necessary mods will now be downloaded.
If you have never used the TFAR mod before, please watch this video.

If you need help on setting up your radio, please watch this.
The channels we use, will be on the in game map, once you joined the server.

Introduction

UNITAFs mission is to liberate the map of the enemy. Initially the enemy will hold all sectors and we start with a limited amount of resources. By strategically taking over enemy sectors to gain access to more resources and unlock better vehicles to use.

Resources and Measures

You can see these on the right-hand side of your screen if you are in one of our FOBs.

Types of sectors

You can see these on the map. If they are blue, they are controlled by us. If they are red, they are controlled by the enemy.

Name	Icon	Purpose	Notes
Capital		Our primary objectives	These are heavily fortified. Expect QRF
Cities		Small to medium sizes cities
Factories		They generate Supply, Ammo & Fuel	Very nice to have.
Military bases		They give us access to bigger vehicles	Heavily defended. Highly equipped.
Radio Towers		Taking radio towers will increase QRF response time nearby	Ideal for solo or small groups play

Secondary Objectives

Secondary objectives can be accessed by using your scroll wheel in a friendly FOB.
Two types of missions allow you to decrease the "Alert Level" of the enemy. These cost intelligence:

Additionally, there is a third secondary objective, which will reward Intel for completing:

Best Practices

Loadouts:
The Liberation play style is more mobile than what we do on official ops. This means you are going to be running around a lot, with fewer breaks. Plan your loadouts accordingly.
Vehicles:
Vehicles can be bought at any FOB, given the required Supplies, Ammo, and Fuel are present. Do your best to use them in a safe manner, as the cost of replacement quickly mounts, and inform the other players if you want to make a purchase.

Is the enemy bringing to much stuff to deal with?
Do a FOB hunt already!

BETA

The Frontlines server is still in beta. Please report all bugs on Discord in the #public-server channel.
