Gameplay
Each team will have time at the beginning of the match to gear up and time between rounds to re-gear. Its default Arma gear system, clothing and guns on the left, ammo and first aid kits on the right. When the rounds start you will be teleported to map locations. There is a lock delay where you can't move or get out of your vehicle. There is a timer on all fights with a shrinking zone which will slowly kill players outside of the zone. When the timer runs out, defenders will win unless attackers outnumber defenders significantly. The team to win the best of 5 will move to the next round.
