Key unit facts

A quick look at how we operate

Who we are

Rangers, since 2017

A semi-realistic Arma 3 unit playing the 2/75th Ranger Regiment, Alpha Company, with 3/160th SOAR flying for us.

  • English-speaking, based across Northern and Central Europe
  • Nine years running — Norwegian Armed Forces, then US Army, Rangers since 2023
  • Quality over quantity: we would rather be small and sharp
How ops work

One operation a week

A handcrafted main operation every Friday. On the server by 18:40, boots down 19:30, endex around 22:00, then debrief.

  • Around 30 players on a normal Friday night
  • Zeus-built missions plus Antistasi, Liberation and side ops
  • Iraq, Afghanistan, Norway, Bosnia and more
What we ask

Two ops a month

That is the whole commitment. Cannot make one? File an LOA 24 hours ahead and you keep your slot.

  • 16+, a working mic and a legal copy of Arma 3
  • BCT or RASP 1 depending on your Arma hours — we teach the rest
  • Roles reset each deployment, so everyone gets a shot at something new
