We start this COMRAD with an Arma 3 Creator DLC: Reaction Forces piece: A NATO QRF unit arrives to assist an ambushed convoy that stumbled into an enemy urban checkpoint in this screenshot by Foxtrott.
A Cougar helicopter serving with the Romanian Naval Forces responds to a sinking boat's distress signal, and prepares to rescue its crew members in this image by the Romanian Armed Forces Mod Dev Team.
Next, we have a new #NoContextArma screenshot by POLPOX. Without speculating too much on what the context might be in this Arma 3 Creator DLC: CSLA Iron Curtain based image, we can at least say it appears to be two Armed Forces of the Midland Coalition AH-1Fs conducting a low-level night flight over Gabreta.
Finally, two Swiss soldiers look on as the sun rises over the Alps in this stunning 1980s themed image by Skanija.

We weren't the only ones to release new Arma content on April 1st as a double bluff. The ACE Mod Team not only released ACE Anvil for Arma Reforger, but also updated ACE 3.
The CUP Dev Team also got in the spirit, releasing "CUPDATE" 1.18.0 for CUP Weapons, CUP Units, and CUP Vehicles. You can join their Discord Server to learn more!
IceBreakr was also going to release his hotly anticipated Yulakia terrain on April 1st, but has had to delay:
This delay will be short, though - and Yulakia's release is imminent. To celebrate, IceBreakr and the Slovenian Black Panthers have released this teaser video:
Die Division Friedrich der Große recently conducted a joint operation with 1st Forecon Company, capturing Kaunas after heavy urban combat. They are hoping to do a number of other joint operations with units in the community - so if that is something you are interested in, reach out to them on X (formerly Twitter)!
A new event hosted by Global Conflicts was run last week on April 6th. This one had the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus as a backdrop. If you wish to learn about any upcoming Global Conflicts events, visit their website or follow them on X.
On April 7th, the Pathfinder Platoon began Operation Castilian. This first instalment of their new campaign had them storming ships to rescue hostages. You can learn more about the Pathfinder Platoon by joining their Discord Server.
COM-VIDEO
SovietWomble has released a new Random Arma Bullsh*ttery video - this time focusing exclusively on Vietnam War action with Arma 3 Creator DLC: S.O.G. Prairie Fire. Watch SovietWomble and friends run through the jungle and hunt for Charlie below:
This may have been uploaded a bit late for April Fools - but JokoPlays has decided to RickRoll the Arma community with this video. This was done with in-game map markers and a lot of SQF scripting. If you wish to try out this method yourself to play a joke on your friends, you can find more information here on GitHub.
With the release of Arma 3 Creator DLC: Reaction Forces, Arma Community Managers LeClair and Nillers ran two Play Session Live Streams to showcase the new CDLC's content.
The first stream, hosted on Twitch, focused on the "QRF" co-operative scenario, and featured Void Gaming members Chewie, James, Nathan Hale, and Ragin Bacon. If you missed it, you can view a VOD here.
The second stream, hosted on YouTube, focused on the "Cashpoint" player vs. player scenario. Rotators Collective Project Lead Lexx joined in for this session, along with thebuckfastwine, Ceb.Cin, Chewie, DigbyTW, Ditch, Elu, Melle, Scofer, and YeetBoy.
