Tip for playing by yourself with AI squad - while setting up game, go into Params and under equipment options you'll find a setting called "Default number of items needed for guests to be able to use them". Change this to "no limit". There's nothing more annoying than scrounging a few good rifles and having your AI unable to equip them.
@AlenB29 you can’t unless you change the settings, otherwise they have to be unlocked. Usually 25 of each item will unlock them but I like to have this setting on, makes it more realistic guerrilla warfare.
Actually, if you move your HQ about 300M in any direction you can do another mission of that type. This is how I capture villages and towns very quick. If you start do a supply mission once the town is on your side you move HQ into that town or closer to the next town you plan to move on the map. Just move Petros and you can do another. I’ve done 5 in a row just by moving HQ. Another great video tho! Can’t wait to see the next series !
BUT THATS CHEATING 👀 I joke, each to their own, plus I don’t think I could stand moving it setting up a new bunker every time haha, but yes you could cheese it if you wanted too 😉 🤣🤣
@@theurbanhermit365 Then just do a supply, then another type then ask for a supply again that is what I do... It has always worked for vanilia antistasi and even on ultimate it still works. So do supply, then assignation for instance then come back and do supply till you control the towns near the HQ... I mean early on its where I get most my starter gear doing supply missions killing the police in region for their better then your starting gear... Like vanila they got lvl 2 ballastics vests that say police. I am doing RHS right now against Russians they got MPs with just basic Aks, Ak74us and like 1 out of 5 got a tin foil starter helmet, and 1 out of 3 seem to have a ballestics vest. Like works way better with vanilla as all them have vests, but then its like 1 out 6 have blue popo helmet so feels about same drop rate on helmets just in RHS the war score one russians use same crap helmsts and vests as the MPs so it stacks up.
If you are using ace mod( if you're playing alone use ace no medical) you need to go in the gas station get out to the vehicle and press windows key in the gas bomb
Thank you, I’m glad they help and you won’t be disappointed with AU, it’s a great mod and the amount of compatible mods that can go with it gives it endless possibilities 🙂
Great video. Just starting Arma 3. Getting the game down then hope to play Antistasi ..... Subscribed and plan on watching more of your vids.. Thank you
I don't remember if vehicles get fixed/fueled/rearmed if you don't have those special trucks in garage. You don't have to use the map to save, easier to use commander menu. You don't have to unload ammo truck "the hard way", just park near it and you can click "transfer cargo to arsenal". Same with crates you get from enemy outpost/airfield/milibase. Good tips, nice video.
They get fixed/rearmed/repaired if you have those vehicles in your garage, you don’t have to use the map no but generally I’m at HQ when I log off so I use the map after looking at info etc, Yes but transferring will delete your loot box, early on this isn’t ideal so do it the way I said and you don’t loose it.
@@kettujabamiesukkeliukko talking about loot crates 🤣 if you have one in the vehicle with one of those arsenal crates and do as you say you’ll loose the loot crate also. Takes an extra 5 seconds to unload it haha An armoury box you can what you wish with, doesn’t cost you anything haha
Its not one per login its one at a time so if you do a logistics or failed it, you CAN take another after you do another mission or enough time has passed you can't just spam only one mission type though.
yeah so you cant take a logistics and then do a logistics after, basically what i was saying. generally i wont do loads of missions in one playthrough, it'll be one or two missions and then attacking a couple of places then log off, if you really wanted to you can just save the game leave server come back in and just rinse the logistics missions but why would you want to.
Refueling: If also running any ACE version, you need to use your Windows key (default) while looking at the pump to actually grab a nozzle and hook it up. Garage: Find Fuel, ammo, and repair trucks, garage them, then "restore nearby units" will repair and rearm any vehicles too. Loot boxes: Most flags have a large crate nearby, and surrendered enemies drop loot crates too.
Nice, yeah ACE just makes everything more in depth. Generally I do the vanilla side of things with AU but I appreciate the comment and advice for anyone who might be using ACE 🫡
@@theurbanhermit365 we run a few mods but stick with ACE No Medical for simplicity. Currently freeing Takistan from the Invading Americans in a Durka Durka playthrough XD Also, earplugs are a must (especially with soundmods)
Small correction, ACE doesn't stop the AI from resing you, the AI actually does treat you, but you have to keep in mind that it'll function via ACE mechanics which means no immediate revive, it'll take time to get blood back into you, the meds to take effect, bandage you up etc, but I have found they actually work on you, AND on each other.
@WinterburnVideos yeah the medic had extras on them, that’s why I was confused as it kept telling me they were on their way then just stood there staring at me or getting distracted with something else 😅 I’ll have to try again tomorrow as I really wanted to use it for the next series

Hey. So to my knowledge, I followed everything you said. But I cant recruit soldiers to me, if I recruit some, they are just there, existing, but I cant control them, other than from Zeus. Also, when I buy infantry it also gets spent from the faction money, not my own
That seems strange, you playing vanilla settings and with AU/CBA_A3 ? I’m only running those two mods with this guide so maybe an extra mod you’re running is doing it ?
Hey man is there something I have to do when I return the air drop back to hq? I’ve unloaded it but not seen a promt or anything to say I’ve actually finished it thanks
Once you reach the HQ with the airdrop it should just give you a pop up saying Air drop completed. Just to ask, did you pick up multiple boxes ? Usually the air drops drop 2 boxes, if you only had one then it won’t complete I believe 🫡
I did find out from a subscriber that if you store it in the garage when you’re finished before logging off it’ll refund you the $100 you spent on it as well.
I keep spending all my money and losing my troops, once that happens I feel like I need to restart. I've restarted multiple times after my AI companions just get downed instantly, they can't seem to win a firefight.. I'm finding it very hard to even start this mod let alone progress through it
You should be able to get a full squad at start, they are not well equipped nor well trained so you have to play that to your advantage, start off small, do a couple of supply runs to towns, this’ll give you more HR also to gain more troops. Try and get a couple of ammo trucks also, they are not very well guarded if you get lucky enough and can gain yourself some decent weapons from it as well. Hope this helps 🫡
How do you self revive? I play sp and the ai is crap sometimes. Ive had them stand next to me and let me bleed out so i for one would like to use this.
You need to change it in the parameters before starting the game, there should be an option for a self revive - then this on to withstand and when you go down it should show you a print to push H, you can use it once every 5 minutes 🙂

Tip for playing by yourself with AI squad - while setting up game, go into Params and under equipment options you'll find a setting called "Default number of items needed for guests to be able to use them".

hell na i dont wanna give good limited guns to the brainless AI lol
