Comrades of CiA, your comrades at Folk/ARPS invite you to join them and LDDK in the struggle for collectivisation of farms and the creation of a socialist agrarian utopia.

Yes, but I don't live in Britain nor in Central Europe, when does it start for me?

Which OA server will we use?
The Folk ArmA2: Combined Operations server:
- Address: server.herosquad.org
- Port: 2402
- Password: freedom
Folk/ARPS/CiA guests, please use the Folk TS3 server:
- Address: server.herosquad.org:9988 (note: the domain and port go together)
- Password: freedom
Are any addons allowed, or just vanilla ArmA 2: Combined Operations?
Just vanilla ArmA 2: Combined Operations. You may run client-side addons (STHUD etc.) but not those that might give you a competitive advantage against humans (e.g. mods that allow you to control your view distance). Please, please do NOT connect with such mods. Connecting with ACE2 or ACRE loaded may cause the server to crash - please do not be the one to delay 50+ other players.
What kind of missions will we be playing?
We plan to play a modified version of Housemaster's Zargabaddies mission (which we have never completed), expanded for 70 players.
What's the ORBAT?
Here's an abbreviated ORBAT of available slots for the mission:

Just come along and enjoy the evening, comrade! If you know you're coming along, posting in this thread would be great - it's not obligatory, but it will help us plan things and is greatly appreciated by the hosts.
Are we expected to survive?
Why do people always ask this question?
