Arma 3 Antistasi Getting started

[Michael]

First of all my recommondation for getting started in arma 3 is:

Setting the compass to "space" (from "K")
this will make calling coordinates much easier
Also setting grenades to "2xG" (from "G")
this will reduce the amount of accidently thrown grenades

Looking at the several Combat stances and movement keys is always a good idea.


An Antistasi key is "Y" (or "Z" on a qwertz keyboard) and shouldn't be used.

What is Antistasi?
Antistasi is a Coop Single and Multiplayer mod of Arma 3. Its possible to add pvp aspects if you Join Nato and CSAT. I would suggest that we only start as "indipendent".
You are a member of a rebellion or guerilla group and try to throw Nato and CSAT from your wonderful island.
One player is the commander and has higher cababilitys to change the war effort.
You start as a small group with no money and no support by the local population. Your goal is to gain support, get gear and fight the enemy troops.
Also Antistasi contains reworked AI which seems to be pretty smart at the first glance.

The focus at the beginning of the game should be gathering resources and avoiding missions.
My suggestions is kill some local gendarmes take loot steel some cars and get them back to the HQ.

Antistasi has a high difficulty and what we will need is a lot of gear.
A good way is to get into a town kill some gendarmes, wait for some soldiers to arrive and loot them. Also destroying roadblocks, loot and look out for an ammo crate.
Probably the cheapest way is to steal some cars and sell them for the sake of the rebellion.
You tactic at the start is always kill and gtfo.

A good way to get started is form up a group, kill some Cops get the response, Kill the roadblock and loot. One group should drive back the gear while the other group gains control over the town. Once you start to feel that your gear is improving you can move on to the next stage of the game.

update (25.09):

After making good progress gathering resources and vehicles. Starting to cause a little chaos and maybe even conquer a radio is a good idea. Info on the progress can be seen on the map/game info in the HQ. (need to make a picture for better clarification)

A good idea is at this stage is to take over a radio tower. It will disturb the ability of the enemy to communicate and also will send propaganda to the local population which will turn their favour towards you. The ability of the commander to garrison units at the radio tower will be needed here. Also doing missions will help on the war effort.

I fucking love this game mode especially with TFR and having to use long range radios to talk over the mountains. I'll defiantly play with you guys as long as I can get drunk and fly an A-10. (or whatever it is in game) Anyone played mercenaries 2? Lol.. You know who I mean.
