The battle in the former Soviet-occupied Chernarus has been going on for over a week now with no end in sight. NATO coalition forces have been battling a jihadist uprising backed by the Iranian CSAT army. Direct clashes between NATO and CSAT forces have been rare up to this point.

The radicalized locals have been poorly trained and largely ineffective against the coalition, but their requests for military support appear to have been answered. Due in large part to the tactical failure of NATO forces to mount an effective defence of Chernarus' northern border and root out the jihadist military leadership, a coalition of CSAT and Takistani Regular Army units have been spotted sweeping south across the map. In addition, better trained and equipped militia forces have begun reinforcing the insurgents.

Play time is over.

This sounds great PB, I always loved that map. Looking forward to getting whopped in it!

NATO coalition forces have captured most of the south and central towns of Chernarus, including the main central airfield, now designated "Camp Audacity". Recent major victories include:

• * Chernarus Central Airfield (now Camp Audacity)
• * Zelenogorsk
• * Stary Sobor
• * Vybor
• * Pustoshka

CSAT equipment captured at Camp Audacity:

• * 4x T100 Black Eagle MBT
• * 2x ZSU-35 Tigris AAA
• * 1x 2S9 Sochor SPG
• * 2x Punisher (unarmed) MRAP
• * 1x Punisher HMG MRAP
• * 3x Land Rover RPG
• * 2x Mi-48 Kajman
• * 1x Yak-130

Captured jihadi forces have revealed the guerilla fighters identify themselves as "Crimson Jihad" under the leadership of Salim Abu Aziz. We have no intel on whether or not Aziz is leading this insurgency directly.

OP order:

• * secure the towns surrounding Camp Audacity to create a buffer zone for continued operations
• * secure a supply line between NATO HQ and Camp Audacity. CSAT AA units have been very effective against our air assets
• * begin operations in the Eastern seaports to cut off CSAT supply lines

LOL

Server reset: everything is back to mission start.

Changelog:

• * Re-enabled ALiVE persistence
• * Added shooting range to BLUFOR base
• * Adjusted OPFOR composition and tactics

LOL! Did Brian May take the picture?

Clearly Brian May holds his guitar on the other side.

Hahaha

Brian May.. That's perfect.

So, shot in the dark here, but I'm guessing ArmA's 3.2 GBs worth of updating today broke about 2/3rds of our mods? Haven't launched anything and gotten problems yet, just assuming the tradition continues.

First, I was all like pshaw, no way. Then I tried Chernarus and I was like OMGWTFBBQ.

We're working hard to get this working again, fear not.

Chernarus Insurgency appears to be working again after the mod updates. If you join and things look "dark and sparkly", your mods are out of sync. See here: www.f99th.com/index.php/forum/arma/616-f99th-arma-3-mods#4115 for details.
