The Little Delta That Could - ShackTac Arma 2
Condensed version of a runthrough of Bridge Sierra Tango on 6/27/2012. Includes some pretty neato stuff! This is a player-vs-player scenario, I think it was something like 75 vs 50, attack/defend. Defenders had an HMG and mortar. Attackers had cunning. The final "victory" had only two or three BLUFOR still alive.
Q: What server am I playing Arma games on, who are these people, and can you join?
A: It's the private server for my community, Shack Tactical. As of 2014 we've been around for eight years, and I wouldn't trade it for anything - we have a fantastic memberbase and it makes for amazing gameplay in Arma and elsewhere. You can read more about us here: http://www.shacktac.com
Q: What mods does ShackTac use in Arma?
A: I keep a list of them here: http://dslyecxi.com/shacktac_wp/shacktac-server-modset/
Q: Does ShackTac play mostly coop or mostly PvP/adversarial in Arma?
A: We do a mix of about 70% adversarial and 30% coop - both offer unique experiences and are a blast to play.
Q: How long have you been playing the Arma series?
A: I've been here from the start, with my Operation Flashpoint experience beginning with the demo's release in 2001. I went into the US Marine Corps shortly after (no relation!) and in 2004 I started playing OFP in multiplayer. 2006 saw me found ShackTac, which started in OFP and then transitioned through Arma 1, Arma 2, and finally, Arma 3. I hope to continue this for a long time into the future, as well as share the ride with viewers like you, as corny as that sounds!
Q: What system am I filming all of my Arma and VBS footage on?

I also answer questions in my comments routinely, as I enjoy that aspect of things. If I don't answer, please don't take it personally - there's a lot going on and I can't always get to everything.
