Basic Training with Point

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.

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.
