Guide

The general arsenal provides the basic soldiering equipment and essentials that individuals will need when deploying on operations. The arsenal contents are dictated by SOP regarding the time period and technological capability of the given faction. As role-specific items are only to be accessed by authorised roles, it is prohibited to add any such item in the arsenal.
