ArmA II

Everything you could honestly want to know about Takistan.

Prague, Czech Republic 5th August 2010 - The Arma 2 homepage has been updated with the latest detailed, comprehensive Intel. A complete report on Takistan, its history, environment and industrial situation accompanied with pictorial references, is now available for immediate analysis at www.arma2.com

Takistan is a country with a long and bloody past. It's a country of people who proudly remember their roots - where its thousand-year-old history is as fresh and important as yesterday's news. They never forget and never forgive.

Takistan is a country of many contrasts: picturesque villages set in astounding scenery can be found just a few steps from the oil plants, garbage dumps or the crumbling remnants - a legacy of decades of civil war. Takistan is a country of more than 220 square km. Its 4 towns, 24 villages, 3 airports and nearly half a million objects combine to create a mountainous, wild and beautiful environment, rich in untouched nature and unspoiled wilderness.

Next in the line-up of military simulators, Arma 2: British Armed Forces is scheduled for release on 26th August. BAF delivers an opportunity to explore the beautiful country of Takistan in even more depth. Unprecedented freedom of movement, action and tactics - together with hundreds of unique models and epic sandbox-style maps - creates the most authentic military simulation game: war without the training wheels.

Less than two months after Operation Arrowhead successfully routed the Takistani military regime, NATO coalition forces face a large-scale outbreak of guerilla insurgency. A mechanized force of British troops are about to deploy and embark upon a large-scale counter-insurgency campaign, which will define the future of the coalition presence in Takistan: Operation "Crimson Lance".

Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead is available now! Check out the project´s homepage www.arma2.com and learn more about Arma 2: Combined Operations - a unique collection of the original Arma 2 and the massive standalone expansion pack, Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead.

Arma 2: British Armed Forces will be deployed exclusively for the PC on 26th August 2010. It will be available for GBP 7.99/EUR 8.99/USD 9.99
