That's a shame; I'm not able to play next Saturday nor on the 26th. Hoping to see you in early February, in that case!
Let's see whether we'll have enough people on the 18th for a session nevertheless.

I made a compilation of a few of our games. I didn't really bother with fancy editing - it's just there for nostalgia.

Thanks for that, Neb! Haven't watched it yet, but will do so when I get back from work. I'm definitely enjoying the sessions - and differently from the (also enjoyable) Folk ARPS games, I actually get to see the enemy before they shoot me to bits.
I've also been playing more of Cold War Rearmed 2 and am definitely eager to return to Everon and Malden for some coop. They've done a fantastic job porting the Operation Flashpoint islands to Arma 2, and the addon maps they released before Christmas are great too.

I notice that Arma 2 is in the (

We basically play with Arma 2: Combined Operations, which is regular Arma 2 plus Operation Arrowhead. The other DLC also comes into it, although if I'm not mistaken you get the DLC assets with the various patches for free.
Other than that, we've included the Cold War Rearmed 2 mod and addons - they recreate the original Operation Flashpoint in Arma 2 and are freely available.
It'd be great if you joined us, Al_B! I'd say that the complete Arma 2 package is well worth it.

Great - I've picked up the bundle while it's available and although I may not be able to make the next session I'll try to join in with the fun as soon as I can.

Make sure to join the steam group if you haven't already done so!

Turns out I probably won't be around at the time today.
Thirith on 18/1/2014 at 12:52
No problem - thanks for letting me know! I'll probably be online at the time to see whether anything is around and then we'll take it from there.
I'll be away next week, but I'll definitely schedule another game for 1 February. And anyone in the group should feel free to schedule a game whenever they like.

Just scheduled another session for 1 February.
We had a fun impromptu set of missions with people from the Folk ARPS community; I've sent those who played a message saying that they're welcome to play with us. I hope that's okay with everyone - we've had guests in the past, and let's face it, they're much better at killing while not being killed than me. :p
