FK & UO Joint Op - Operation ***
Event created by NeilZar
Event details
Fuck Knows has been invited by United Operations to play a couple of TvT missions. Operation *** will consist of two TvT missions where FK and UO will team up in combined platoons and have some fun. This means that each side will consist of both FK and UO members, working together to defeat the other side. Very important, if you are banned from the UO servers you will not be allowed to play in this event! The same counts for people banned from our servers.
Technical information
Both missions will be played on the UO servers using the UO mod pack. Note that this mod pack includes ACRE, UO does not use TFAR. UO will provide information on how ACRE works in comparison to TFAR before and on the day of the event. If you are keen on finding out how it works, Google is your best friend. UO has a server that can be used to test if you have a functioning mod pack, use it to make sure everything works BEFORE the event starts. If you want any further information on any technical aspects of the event, feel free to leave a comment below.

Preparing for the event
Before the event happens, there are a couple days where you can participate in a rehearsal session. These sessions are designed for small groups to practice tactics and skills. This will include using the 60mm mortars, armoured vehicle gunnery and infantry manoeuvring. As space during these sessions is limited, you need to contact Max from UO to reserve a spot. You can find him on the UO Discord, Teamspeak or Forum. You can also contact me (@NeilZar) and I will try to reserve the spot for you.
Rehearsal schedule: (Z = UTC)
- Session 1: 21 APR 1900Z-2100Z
- Session 2: 28 APR 1900Z-2100Z
If you wish to attend these rehearsal sessions, you are required to register on their forum.
Event Day
On the day of the event, the UO Teamspeak will have a special room with the FK name. On the event day, there is no password required to join the servers. Make sure you are on time, that means you are present on the UO Teamspeak and ready to go before 1800 UTC. If you are in a leadership position, this counts double for you. The briefing will begin at 1800 UTC, after which slotting will start. Note that both sides will be briefed separately and you don't want to miss this. The server will be locked twenty minutes after slotting is completed, after which no one can join anymore. So be on time, there will be no exceptions!
Commanders will have a premade briefing that will be presented to their team prior to players being slotted. After all the players have been briefed, players will begin to slot beginning with high-level leadership and staff, and ending with the lowest-ranking slots. During the slotting commanders will draw their briefing on the map while their respective teams load in. Once both sides have fully loaded in and organized each leader will signal that they are ready. The head game moderator will then begin the mission in accordance with annex six of the operations orders. Once the end conditions have been met the head game moderator will end the mission also in accordance with annex six of the operations orders.
A note to streamers
All live streams are required to have a minimum 15-minute delay. If you do not comply with this, you will be removed from the event!
THE MISSIONS
Both missions will take place on Chernarus, but they are not related. The first mission has 58 slots reserved for FK; the second mission has 53 slots reserved for FK. These are the slots that are reserved for FK. Anyone that is not able to get a slot reserved for them can still try and get a slot on the day. Any slots open on the day will be divided among the people that show up.
Tags are enforced for all slots, meaning that anyone asking for those slots without tags will not get the reservation. There is a special privilege for Squad Leaders; they are allowed to form their squad once they have been assigned the role. To reserve slots in your squad for members you want in your squad; you only need to send me a message with the list of people you want and which slot you want them in. If you decide not to use this privilege, I will assign people signing up to your squad.
Following will be a short overview of the missions, a full briefing will be available on the event day.
