Just thought I'd say hello and give you a brief rundown on myself and OCB, seeing as we are keen to do more joint ops with you guys, and possibly have you guys participate in our missions.
I've been online gaming since 95 (yep, I'm one of the older type of gamers), starting with QuakeWorld and have played countless games online since. I'm a former member of the ADF (Army) having served eight years full time. Did four years in reserves following that, but the reserves were a bit of a Dad's Army so I gave up on it. I'm Currently a member of the thin blue line in NSW.
I established Online Combat Battalion (OCB) in 2009 for Arma 2. When Arma 3 arrived we saw a big expansion in our numbers with the official member count reaching 140 at one stage and our mission events involved between 40 and 60 players. With time and changes in gaming our numbers have fluctuated up and down with our current roster being 20. We have our own tactical mission events on a regular basis as well as training nights for infantry, armour, air and special operations doctrines. Training is based on actual tactics and procedures, of course with some changes due to it being a game and not the real thing.
We are a friendly bunch with a great sense of humour, and we operate professionally whilst still having a laugh.
Looking forward to more joint operations with you guys.
Cheers!
