The Boom Beach Task Force, Arfcom Mutiny, is once again recruiting experienced Arfcommers who play Boom Beach regularly. We currently have 5 slots available to interested Arfcommers. We do require a minimum of 300 victory points and we run Operations as frequently as our intel allows.
We typically run 4-5 Operations per week and Foxtrot is our primary at the moment. We are steadily approaching being able to run Foxtrot. We do require participation in Operations, and will kick members for lack of participation. If you're interested, open up Boom Beach, search Arfcom Mutiny, and send a request with your forum name. Expect to be asked the general Arfcom identification questions when you're accepted. We're usually quite active in the in-game chat. |

I must be getting old, because I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Boom Beach is a fairly violent and homoerotic bondage version of volleyball played on the beach. When a team scores, they dick thwap the opponents and yell BOOM The terms "felching brown starfish" are used often. ETA looks like its a computer game. Disregard my prior input and asking me for directions to the beach is apparently ill advised. |

I was just kicked out of the task-force because I didn't participate enough, but the only operations they started were so far above my level it was always a suicide mission for me to attack.
I kept waiting to join in a lower op but they never do those, and I didn't feel like having to replace my entire army every time just to participate. |
| I've got 303 or 304 VP and would love to participate, but the only times I'm available are for a few minutes first thing in the morning and then after work. The whole "task force" bit has never been explained to me so I don't really know if I'd be a good fit. I'd love to participate if possible though. What sayeth the hive? |

What sayeth the hive? basically just really hard bases.. and we throw waves of troops at them and you have like 20 hours to attack. its suicide for everyone but if you have a great counter you can dig the front line back and get the next person closer to blowing up the target. |

And then some self appointed "master" would complain because you didn't go through the map just right. I was basically providing a bit of artillery and sacrificing my entire army just so some other schmoe could clean up. Quoted:

Start a TD called arfcom mutiny 2 |

Quoted:
I'm around 550 points and play several times a day but I have no idea how task forces work. They have Operations where there are a number of really difficult bases. Each member may attack one base per Op. It takes many members to destroy each base. You get rewards based on how many buildings the task force destroys in each Op. |

Quoted:
I play several times a day every day. How much commitment is involved in a task force? I'd like to do it but I don't want to inhibit or otherwise interfere with others. Operations run for 24 hours. We typically run 4-5 per week. Each Operation is a single attack. If you can spare the time to attack 4-5 times per week, you're good. |

I was told the rewards are based on your cost to attack not how much you destroy so it shouldn't matter. The payout is worth more than all my troops for me and gives me chances at iron and rock that I wouldn't normally get. |

So a level 50 and a level 60 player in the same task force will earn different rewards amounts for the same operation. |

Right but what you earn has nothing to do with your individual performance on the op just the overall performance of your taskforce right? So there is no reason to sit out |

Right but what you earn has nothing to do with your individual performance on the op just the overall performance of your taskforce right? So there is no reason to sit out What you earn as a reward for each Op is only tied to how many force points your task force earned on that Op and your current island experience level. It is in no way tied to your individual performance in the Op. Even if you don't participate, you still receive the rewards. Therefore, the task force kicks freeloaders in hopes that more active members allow us to complete larger Ops for larger rewards. Someone not participating and just collecting the rewards is annoying and goes against ARF mentality b |

I was just saying that in my experience the reward was usually equal to or worth more than replacing all my troops |

Sometimes you log in and finish a base off, sometimes you take out 1 or 2 defenses and make an opening for the next guy. This is amphibious warfare (in a kid friendly presentation). Saw the TF is filled up. |

Listen up cupcake, we all have to replace our entire army after an ops attack. Every mission is a suicide mission. sometimes you get lucky and don't loose everyone. Hogshooter, BTW. |

What's the highest level you guys have in your task force? My son runs a task force and we have one guy at level 61. All the rest of us are in the 40's at best and most players are in the 30's. I think the one high level guy skews the level that our task force faces. We are stuck doing pencilneck but the objectives are always in the high level 50's and nobody wants to do ops because they get wiped so fast.
Does the level of your highest player dictate what you see in the ops? |

Does the level of your highest player dictate what you see in the ops? Highest 64. I'm a 60. The mission is dictated as a whole group. If you join a TF, any TF you must do the mission whether it's a suicide attack or not. I have maxed out pretty much all troops and mine die like nothing. Every player chips at the mission. Bigger mission more rewards. As a 60, i pay way more gold for my troop loses than a low ranking player. They actually get a better return on investment than I do. So even, low level they do what they can and are part of a team. We only ask they participate every mission. |
