Introduction

The following event scheduling guidance is for the all game areas of operations to avoid scheduling conflicts between 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, S3, and the S7 Departments. Arma 3 operations, section practices, company FTX's, S7 classes, and other Arma 3 events should be scheduled to avoid conflict when possible. The same principles also apply for Hell Let Loose and Squad operations, section practices, company FTX's, S7 classes, and other in game events.

Arma 3 Area of Operations

This section will detail all aspects for the Arma 3 Area of Operations.

Avoiding Conflicts

Arma 3 private server priority will always go to RTC Bootcamps first, followed by section practice, company FTX's, S3 operations, and S7 classes. Please see the Arma 3 Rules of Engagement for additional guidance on private server priority. While it's impossible to avoid conflict altogether, we can make sure that we schedule things in a way to minimize the impact conflicts have.

Before scheduling official Arma 3 events, the person posting it is expected to post it on the 7Cav Events Calendar. This is the tool we use to avoid conflicts.
