Charlie Foxtrot

Posts Tagged ‘Charlie Foxtrot’

A New Dawn Has Come! Charlie Foxtrot is pleased to announce the launch of its new Warfare Tournament.  Charlie Foxtrot and IC-ArmA have provided quality weekly multiplayer gaming for ArmA2 and ArmA for 3 years.  This new tournament which will operate as a separate entity from our existing Virtual War tournament represents our commitment to the ArmA 2 player base to provide innovative and exciting  gaming experience.

The Warfare tournament will pit two factions against each other in weekly battles over a campaign (usually 8 weeks) in a battle for territorial supremacy.  For the time being we will be using Warfare: Benny Edition (by Benny) but work has already begun on our own custom Warfare mission which is being built from the ground up.

Warfare will provide an interesting change of pace from our existing Virtual War tournament with different challenges and gaming scale.

To sign up, just register to the forums and visit the ****Join Your Army Here**** forums.  Your request will be dealt with promptly by one of our highly trained and courteous staff!

Whats New for CF2?
At CF we never rest in terms of development.  We are continually tweaking, updating and trying to improve our in-house battle system.  For CF2 we have totally rebuilt the Battle Map from the ground up with an all new scoring system.  The battles will be more intense with more action yet still requiring that age-old Charlie Foxtrot battle planning and unit level planning.  As always we have listened to our players and taken on board their suggestions, for instance, Military Ranks are now back.  In addition to this, over the course of CF1 we continually posted test versions of the Battle Map and asked for open feedback so that our players were totally in the loop as to the course map development has taken.

It is time to lock and load for the first full Charlie Foxtrot Campaign after our successful 6 week beta campaign & scrims.  Sunday the 18th October 2009 will see the first battle of ten for CF1, where the River Stone Inc take on Shashka International in a battle to the last for control over Chernarus.  It promises to be a long, bloody hard fought campaign, come be part of it.

Charlie Foxtrot Mod Pack v1.0

*Added Community Base Addons
*Added Inko Disposable ~ no AT Spam
*Added CF vehicle configs
*Added CF scripts used by battle map

*Disabled parachuting from helos ~ proper tactical use of of helos, paradrops still done via fixed wing drop planes.
*Disabled “command spotting” ~ no command hax
*Reduced CF vehicles fuel amount, (~30min running time land vehicles, ~15min air) ~ Fuel and Ammo now valuable part of Logistics

Charlie Foxtrot Campaign System
On the face of it Charlie Foxtrot can be quite a daunting thing to face however, its really quite simple.  A Charlie Foxtrot Campaign lasts for 10 weeks.  Battles are fought week by week, gaining territory as you go.  At Charlie Foxtrot we have 5 Fronts.  A Front is a chain of Objectives (9 in total) linked together.  At the start of the campaign each Front starts in the middle along a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).  During a single battle over a Front, Objectives are captured and the battle progresses forward or back depending on which side you are on.  In total there are 45 territories up for grabs, the army with the most at the end of the 10 week campaign is declared the winner.

Charlie Foxtrot Battle System
The Charlie Foxtrot system works on a points system.  The first army to reach 500 points in an Objective captures it and the fight moves on into the enemy territory.  Points can be accumulated in two ways.  The first is by occupying the Objective.  Secondly you get points for killing the enemy, this includes soldiers and vehicles.  You get more points for killing the enemy inside the Objective than outside.  All of this gives a highly dynamic gaming experience.

The Battle System also enforces teamwork.  The slots i.e primary and secondary weapons, are fixed but there is ammo available so you can pick up extra mags, grenades, smokes or explosives.  The point of this is, you will see no Machine Gun totting Sniper-AT Men here.  This is a team game, not one for ‘Rambo’s’.

At this time our focus is directed mainly towards infantry.  Infantry make up the vast majority if our player base and as a result we have created a high intensity infantry experience.  We do use air transport (fixed wing and rotary) so there are still avenues for fly-boys to take, taking a bird into a hot LZ is an experience not for the faint hearted.
