Arma 3 and its predecessors are model citizens for moddability. Bohemia's milsim is practically a platform more than a traditional game, a vehicle for 3D modelers and mission makers. In 2014 and 2015 the company ran Make Arma Not War, a yearlong contest meant to encourage modders to put stuff on Steam Workshop, which now contains tens of thousands of missions, tweaks, and objects for Arma 3.

Add to that pile these familiar bricks from Mondkalb, who's actually an animation lead at Bohemia Interactive Simulations, a separate group that makes VBS. Yesterday Mondkalb put 'Operation Blockhead' on Steam Workshop, a mod that contains a handful of unique Lego civilians as well as some simple Lego bricks that you can insert into Arma's high-fidelity world. It's a modest mod, but the contrast between blocky men and Arma's photorealism is wonderfully weird:

Mondkalb says that his intention was 'mostly to demonstrate how versatile the engine is.' The mod is a fully independent character setup, including 'original animations, ragdoll, weapons, clothes swapping, head and face textures, lip movement and of course hats.' The plastic characters don't inherit all of Arma's mechanics—crouching and prone didn't seem to work when I tried it in the Eden Editor. I love the ragdoll effect on the characters, though.

Hopefully someone will take these assets and run with them. Lego Island fans—and I know you're out there—here's your cue to get to work on a total conversion set on Arma's 100 square-kilometer Tanoa terrain.

You can subscribe to Operation Blockhead on Steam Workshop or find it on Google Drive.

This page will provide you with information required to set up your own Warlords scenario.

Description

Warlords for Arma 3 is a multiplayer mode set up as a sort of Sector Control / CTI hybrid supporting TvT, PvP as well as COOP and even solo play against the AI.

Eden editor

How to make flat white coffee. Here you will find the summary of work that needs to be done in the scenario editor.

1. Place Warlords modules

All Warlords modules can be found under Systems > Warlords.

Place the Warlords Init module anywhere on the map (its position is irrelevant).
- Feel free to tweak the settings in the module window (you open this window by double clicking on a placed module icon). Check the tooltips for each parameter.
Place two Warlords Base modules (one for each faction) on the locations you want to have the starting faction bases.
- Don't forget to properly set up the side parameter in the module window!

Place Warlords Sector modules on desired sector locations.
- You can change various parameters for individual sectors and bases in their module windows.
Connect the bases and the sectors by right clicking on any of them, selecting 'Connect > Sync to' and left clicking on the sector or base you want to connect.
- Connecting sectors defines which sectors need to be captured before unlocking a new sector.

Repeat this for other sectors until you've got all the sectors and bases linked in a reasonable way.

If you don't want to rely on random spawn positions, you can use Warlords Spawn Point modules.
- You can also use empty triggers in the same way (in case you reach maximum group limit).
Feel free to experiment with the other Warlords modules as well, you will find details on how to use them in their module windows.

2. Place playable units

You should place the playable units inside their respective faction bases.
The type or number of playable units is up to you.
Make sure all of them are set as Player or Playable.
Make sure that all playable units are in separate groups.

3. Set up multiplayer rules

You will find these settings under Attributes > Multiplayer.. in the toolbar at the top of the screen.

You can set most of these to your liking, however there is one attribute that needs to be set up specifically in order for the mode to work properly:
- Respawn has to be set to Respawn on Custom Position
- Respawn delay is up to you, the default used in all official missions is 20 seconds.

4. (OPTIONAL) Set up vehicles

By default, the sectors spawn only infantry garrison. If you want the independent faction to utilize vehicles as well, you can easily set it up in the editor:

Place the vehicle (with crew) you want to be spawned inside an independent sector. The vehicle will be spawned at the location you placed it on once this sector is targeted by one of the playable factions.
You can also assign some waypoints to this vehicle.
Connect the vehicle to the sector in the same way you linked sectors together (via Connect > Sync to).

5. Done!

Congratulations, your scenario is ready! These were all steps required to have a fully working Warlords mission. Following are some more in-depth customization options.

Additional options

Here you will learn how to enable Warlords parameters in the multiplayer lobby, and how to use your custom assets in the in-game Request menu.

1. Parameters

If you enable these Parameters in your scenario, players will be able to tweak and override the scenario rules set up in the Init module.
Save your scenario via Scenario > Save As.. from the toolbar at the top of the screen.
Name the scenario, select the MPMissions folder and hit Save.
Switch to your desktop and open your scenario folder. You can find it in DocumentsArma 3MPMissions (you should see a file called mission.sqm here).
Inside this folder, create a file called description.ext.
Copy/paste this text into the file and save it:

2. Custom asset lists

Assets available in the Request menu can be customized by creating new class in CfgWLRequisitionPresets.
You can have the config entry in an addon or put it directly into your mission's description.ext file which we covered in the previous section. Syntax is following:
