EVENT SUMMARY: This will be heavily themed event based taking place in the highly acclaimed Real Tim Strategy game Hearts Of Iron IV, in which players will seek to guide their own nations on the path to Victory during The Second World War. This event may be a one-off or a repeated affair, depending on interest. However, to prevent some of the typical issues with HOI4 multiplayer games, there will be some guidelines for behavior in the event to assist with the flow of events. These are not intended to force a particular outcome or victor in the game's conclusion, and if anyone has a suggestion for additional rulings, please feel free to make suggestions in the comments. ++SLOTTING++ (FINAL SAY IS AT EVENT HOSTS DISCRETION) NOTES: Nations are being broken up according to government type and Historical Standing to ensure a balance of government types and playstyles within the game session.

++MISSION BRIEFING++ "We’ve been sitting here since Christmas 1914, during which time millions of men have died, and we’ve advanced no further than an asthmatic ant with some heavy shopping..." Mission Summary: We have committed ourselves, alongside our French allies, to a combined offensive against German forces positioned in the Valley of the Somme. The goal is to relieve pressure on French forces at Verdun and to inflict significant losses on the enemy in this region. In preparation for the assault, German fortifications have been subjected to a five-day artillery bombardment, and we are now poised to begin our advance. Our platoon’s objective for the first day is to secure as much of the German defensive line within our assigned sector as possible and to seize control of the town of Serre at the far end of our current sector. We anticipate that German forces will be disorganized after such an extensive bombardment, and we expect to make substantial gains on the first day. General Haig holds great expectations for this offensive and looks forward to moving his drinks cabinet closer to Berlin.... ++BRIEFING COMPLETED++ MISSION SUMMARY: This will be a heavily themed mission with elements taken from the Historic events of the 1st World War The mission will be making use of the Arma 3 mods IFA3 AIO, JAM Shell Shock - WW1, Improved Melee System and others which will be posted as well at the bottom of this event page in a compiled list.

The GOTM for March is Minecraft as voted by the community, to get the GOTM off to a good start, I ask that those interested in Minecraft join us for the official start to the server which will be after Arma Main mission time on Friday 21st March Modpack: FTB Evolution Version: 1.12 Server IP: luna.fkservers.eu If you want to join, please make sure to put your Minecraft username in the following whitelisted thread. The following rules apply, but please read through them now and familiarise yourselves Minecraft Rules No griefing in any form No stealing No random killings of players Unless both players agree to "duel" etc No builds/projects that are intended to "test" the server limits or otherwise lag out the server Avoid building new dimensions if at all possible e.g. RFTools Dimensions, Mystcraft worlds, etc. Stable mining dimensions (e.g. Aroma1997's Mining Dimension) are allowed A stable RFTools Mining dimension will be provided later on "Op" status may be granted in special circumstances to restore things Case by case basis, usually if cause is something completely out of your control e.g. 50,000 people used to live here, now it's a ghost town because some guy 5 chunks down blew up his Draconic Reactor or unleashed Primal Fire or some server admin decides he wants to remove 150 chunks of water in an instant using code ? Should you be granted "Op" status for reasons other than being Staff, it should be removed within 24 hours Guidelines/Etiquette Some people may not want a lot of people nearby. If you're not on their team or hasn't been said you two want to work together etc, ask them if they're okay with "neighbours". Avoid using transparent transport pipes (i.e. any item transport pipe where you can see the items moving along) as they can, and will, cause lag. Avoid using strip miners/mining quarries etc. Stick to quarries that replace blocks (usually with dirt) instead of quarries that "mine up" the blocks and removes them. If your quarry mines into water/lava underground and keep on going down to bedrock, the "falling" water/lava contributes to lag. Avoid asking for things in order to skip having to do things (a.k.a. begging) e.g. You miscalculated, you're short a few redstone and need a bit more - 'tis gucci You've had the shittiest luck in managing to find the one chunk/mining pattern that gives you fuck all gold - Yeah, wtv. You can always mine somewhere else but some of us probably have too many. You want some Ender Pearls because you can't be bothered to kill Endermen - Please don't be so lazy. Trading is allowed, even encouraged, we want you guys to work together! But do be sensible with what you ask for/what you offer Need some iron and the other guy needs more wood 'cause he has no trees? Great! You need an Ender Pearl but you want to give them a stick?
