There are 3 possible events you can create. Here they are and explained how:
- Mission Planner: The mission planner is for Main Missions. You have to follow this guide line for the requirements. These events also need approval by CMs.
- Training Planner: The Training Planner is for Training events. If you are running a Training use this calendar.
- Community Events: This is for games other than Arma 3 or special events in Arma 3 which take place during off hours. This includes reserving the server for you and your friends to play together.
If you do something on the Training Planner or the Community Events Calendar, it is preferred that you either take the 2nd Server or make sure nothing else is running at the same time.

Overview
The training will cover basic stuff and the aim is to prepare new people to take part in FK missions.
Topics I will cover:
How to join and making sure you can join our servers Slotting procedure and what happens before we get out of the spawn area ACE Arsenal ACE Interaction ACE Medical Short Range radio LAT intro Rangefinding (if time allows) I will also have a loadout prepared for you guys that contains all the basic items you need as a BLUFOR rifleman. Once you have that you can always fall back to it, change visuals of uniform/vest/helmet and add stuff you might need (LAT, NVGs, backpack with XYZ, ...).
The idea is that you'll be able to immediately put the training to good use in following mission (either 1st main or parallel running "FNG" mission).
How to join
RSVP here and be at "General Training" room on TS at the time of this event. Times in calendar are automatically adjusted to your timezone, but just to make sure, the event will be happening at 1800 CET - 2 hours before the main mission.
I'd appreciate if you already read through at the very least rules and installed your TFAR plugin to TS (if you have any issues try to come a bit earlier so we can sort it out). You're expected to have all the mods downloaded via Steam.
If you do not have the IP and Password for the server don't worry, you'll be given that before we join the server.
Recommended reading
And here are some thread I'd recommend to go through. Only mandatory are the rules of course, but all of them contain useful information. I will cover the necessary info in the training session.
Rules on how to behave in an Arma mission:
Basic training guide, slightly outdated in some aspects (but even outdated parts are very similar now):
In depth guide to TFAR - basics will be explained, still good read:

This will be the first mission in a three-part campaign.
RSVP and slot reservation limited to regulars+, tag holders get priority. FNGs can join via regular slotting.
Gear will be restricted to specific weapons and uniforms.
The Invasion of Sahrani, Part 1: Reinforced Assault
The Russian military is assisting Chernarussian forces in conquering the island of Sahrani; supporting the invasion with equipment, ammunition and troops under the condition that Russia installs its own president in the new imperial government. You will be playing as a Russian motorized platoon, working in conjunction with Chernarussian ground forces to overthrow the existing leadership and establish your own.
Push into the mainland and capture the Sahrani government leaders in an attempt to make them surrender early, and take the main airfield to allow for reinforcements to flow in.
Incapacitating Sahrani communications will prevent them from calling out to NATO for help.
The Russian forces have managed to capture a small, makeshift airfield on the coast of Pita while Chernarussian troops land on the western coast. Sahrani defense forces in the town of Masbete are already moving into Pita to take it back.
Marker key:
Yellow: primary objectives, crucial to the success of the invasion.
Black: optional objectives, will heavily affect future parts of the campaign.
Green: objectives assigned as a result of Chernarussian military interests.
Red: objectives assigned as a result of Russian military interests.
We have absolutely no idea why the General of the CGF wants the road mined, but orders are orders.
Enemy forces:
You will be up against the United Sahrani Defense Forces, who have equipment previously supplied by the United States and Britain. Expect APCs, tanks, jets, all of it. The Sahrani military will do everything in their power to remain a sovereign nation.
Organizational structure and assets:
There are two separate platoons, both composed of three squads and each with their own assets.
Both platoons have tanks graciously donated by the TV, and the Russian air force is sending a fighter in to hold the skies during the operation.
Platoon 1: Russian MSV
Infantry vehicles: 1 x BTR-80, 5 x GAZ-233011
RPTR: 1 x Mi-8MT, 1 x To-201 Shikra (AA only)
KNGT: 1 x T-90 (obr. 1992g.)
Platoon 2: Chernarussian Ground Forces
Infantry vehicles: 1 x BRDM-2UM (armed), 2 x KamAZ-5350 (open), 1 x UAZ-3151
KNGT: 1 X T-80A, 1 x BMP-1P
Long-range communication
Due to the fact that there are two separate platoons, I suggest setting up your LRs as follows:
MSV PLT/SLs on 69 as usual.
MSV FAC/RPTR on 68 as usual.
MSV RTO/KNGT on 67 as usual.
Inter-platoon comms (MSV PLT / CGF PLT / Crossroads) on 66.
CGF PLT/SLs on 65.
CGF RTO/KNGT on 64.
This is my recommendation, but you may choose to organize yourselves however you wish.
Infantry equipment
"Optional" indicates that you can decide not to take a piece of equipment (e.g. not taking a backpack).
"Suggested" indicates that you can decide to take a different piece of equipment (e.g. taking a backpack that is not the one suggested).
"Role-specific" indicates that certain variants of a piece of equipment can only be taken by the role for which they were designed (e.g. only a medic is allowed to take a medic backpack).

The two platoons are expected to cooperate and support each other with the assets they have available to them.
The jet pilot will only have a grass runway to work with. You better know what you're doing.
The Mi-8 will be capable of transporting all available vehicles, including the T-90.
The BRDM has no main gun, but a mounted PKT.
Other important mission details will be revealed in briefing. Additionally; PLTs, FAC and RTOs can message me beforehand for specific mission details if they so desire.
