Very fancy stuff, Mr. Grimmsby.

Mastodon has a new album coming out March 31st. It can't get here fast enough.

Cpl Grimm copied over the Altis template, and placed it on Al Rayak. We have it running on our MSOT server. He's even been working on tweaks, to make enemy armor spawn less, to be more infantry focused. I can't recall top of my head who is the overlord to the Public server, but I'm pretty sure there's a thread for it. Wouldn't hurt to ask there, for additional maps, and so forth.

I put this up on the Arma reddit, and to my surprise, it got some positive feedback. So, I post it here to you!

Well, are you?

Back by popular non-demand.

I feel dirty for posting this. It's more Arma 3. I'm sorry. Don't worry, I'm ashamed for the both of us.

These kind of threads help give me ideas for birthday gifts.

This is a brief recap of our view as the HVT and Bodyguards, from Saturday's Stress Test. Hopefully this gives people some idea of what an Immersion Specialist billet might sometimes be like. Due to the excellent movement of the Saturday MSOT's, they put us in an L-shaped vice, and with the open ocean at our backs, we had no choice but to make our stand at the base.

While the graphics and sound department are nice (so far), I'm more curious how they'll end up developing the game world overall. Open world. Larger level with loading in zones, etc. i like the realistic damage looking model. Providing what we've seen so far, is a damage model that will apply across NPC and PC's.

I know what you're thinking. Two Arma videos in one week? Yes, I confess, I played Arma outside of an official function. I can only hope for your forgiveness.

I swore I'd never play Arma again.

Ease up on the reins there, buckaroo. No need to keep 'er at a gallop. I know what's on your pondering mind. They lost a war to emu (look it up). The mighty British Empire, found it a place no better, than to create a convict colony. Kangaroo? Yup. Wussy European clamp-down on a motorcycle's CC rating? You betcha. Now h-what in tarnation can that there place be good for, you say. Well, settle in for this rodeo. It turns out that slab of wasteland is actually good for somethin'. Those that survived and subjugated, they grew up meaner than a rattler. In today's pansy-ass society, they can't go on crime-sprees that's in their blood. No. No sir they can't. So, they turn it to music. Talkin' about them damned Aussies, if'n you haven't caught on by now, city slicker. Ever wondered where Severndust went off to? Turns our their spirit went down unda', and found with it more brutality and groove. Now, that's some fancy music, you might be thinkin'. Well. Yes. Yes it is. To show just how good they are, here's another sampling. Next time anyone not globally conscious tries to tell ya Australia's full of jokes, you'll know of at least one thing that ain't. Aw'right, time to get a move on li'l doggie.

I'm the hero the meme thread needs, not the one it deserves.

After several drinks, Boardman and I turn off the lights, and delve into the spooky world of Stay Close. The game is 2spoockle4me.

I know what you're all thinking. I thought it too. Austria? Really? Well, when you think of Austria, what comes to mind? The Habsburgs? Austria-Prussian dualism? Their bullying of Bosnian and Serbs? The country's divvying up post-WW2? The acceptance of the Euro in the mid-90's? Well, with all this history lesson, who'd have thought Austria would be pushing the boundaries of future? Futurepop, that is!

I know Arma is wicked lame and only nerds play it, but I'm sure you'll all agree that this is the most high speed low drag and other tacticool words for an extract.

Greetings, my fellow Americans, greetings. Like you, I often wondered what America's top hat was truly good for. Sure, they held the great glacial cold at bay, but of what real use could they have? O', sweet America, I too remember when Canada fielded their experimental combat mounted moose patrols. Great America, I know as of late, all Canada has shown for herself, are the Justin Bieber's of the music world. Like you, I was revolted that our neighboring country would allow such monstrosity to seep into these great lands. My America, I have walked among the people of that noble nation. I have seen the hatred in their hearts, and the vileness of their souls. The Canadian is much like the mighty and awesome maple tree, when autumn turns to winter, and the sap begins to run--to find the true brutality of the Canadian, one must simply tap it. Great and Mighty America, lend me your ears, and learn of our Northern brethren. Learn why England cast them to such savage lands. Learn what the crown so feared. My America, let us join with our fellows of the Great White North, and unify under the shared banner of musical brutality!

I've been sitting on these for a while. Figured I'd share them. An early Christmas present! This album was Sgt Boardman's idea. http://imgur.com/a/nv5fz

Again, I know what you're all thinking. How can a sovereign principality 6.71282193298 times smaller than Rhode Island know anything about metal? Well, let me educate you a little, my xenophobic friend. Just because Andorra's entire population--as of 2014 estimate--is barely larger than the United State's Coast Guard roster of available personnel, doesn't mean they have the cold-hearted brutality of of a Scandinavian when it comes to this stuff. Sure, maybe their music is a little more melodic, and a bit progressive, but that doesn't mean they can't work in some chuggy drop-tuned guitars. Don't believe me?
