Do I have to be 18 to play?
We have an age restriction of 16 but we measure all our members on their level of maturity and communication, and expect everyone to behave like an adult whilst in-game.
Do you use mods?
Yes, we use about 25GB of mods, including ACE3, ACRE, All of CUP and several Firewill jets.
Can I download the mods through Steam / PW6?
Due to developing our own mod internally, we use a proprietary downloader called Scarlet. Once you send in an application, you will be asked to download all the mods through Scarlet. We do, however, use Steam versions of CUP, Firewill, ACRE and many others.
What if I can't make mission nights?
We run multiple mission nights each week, so don't worry if you can't make our main mission nights.
Can I still play if I don't have DLC/Apex/Global Mobilization?
Yes, there's no requirement to own any addons but they are strongly recommended to avoid missing out on missions on addon maps or DLC dependent roles.
