Ghosts of Battle is a  Military Simulation unit. The meaning of this tends to vary within the ARMA community there are many units offering competing levels of tactical realism and bureaucratic simulation.

To us this means that we use proper military tactics while in game, we do have rank, but primary to define roles within the game we do not desire or expect saluted or to be called sir. 

Our definition of Military Simulation 

To help you evaluate our play style: 

• • View is restricted to first-person, except when in vehicles.

  • Advanced ACE Medical

  • Gear is handled via a restricted arsenal, available in-mission at deployment zones.

  • Re-spawns and join-in-progress is generally disliked, but handled by Zeus/Leaders. (we are not goring to leave you out of the op, and will do our best to get you to your unit after a crash or respawn)

  • In addition to the server mod list, some client-side modifications are allowed.

  • Personal Arsenal is not allowed under any circumstances.

  • In Game abilities are assigned based on the game knowledge you have demonstrated.

  • Support services such as artillery and CAS require skill and training to utilize, other wise know as learn to read a map.

We understand that these/this are just  games and as such you might not always be able to attend. We never want you to be in a position where you are sacrificing your real life activities to meet our requirements and we implement strong redundancy plans at every level of the staff so that absence does not affect the wider group.

Please just communicate, use the discord so that as a unit we have proper expectations.

REAL LIFE FIRST

If your can not make an op or training just please tell us, there is no issue with you having a life, just an issue with allowing us to expect your attendance and not showing.

NO DRAMA POLICY

This is the catch all policy, we understand there are issues from time to time, but when the staff has to start asking what have they done now after every time they hear your name, it's an issue. 

OUR REPUTATION

Ghosts of Battle would like to be known as a fun but serious Milsim community you are to avoid any action that would negatively reflect on the unit. 

NO RACISM

Or hate speech, if you do not understand this or have an issue with this, there is the door. 

And again please, please let the door hit you (hard) on the way out!
