WELCOME TO ATOW!

Our mission:
To deliver the best ARMA 2 tournament.

The best means that we strive to:
- Get all players involved in the tournament (instead of just turn up and play)
- Have a collection of players, all passionate about the same thing: Playing ARMA 2 at its very best
- Include new and exciting features to bring a new level of immersion and challenge (through in-house or ARMA-community made development)

Our motto: "For players, by players!"

Our organization:
There is no owner, no one person in control. The tournament is overseen by the player's council,
responsible for developing and evolving the tournament in accordance with the player's wishes.
We want to get as many players as possible involved in running the tournament. The teams we have for this are:

Mod team: A highly talented team who works on our in-house coding projects
Balance team: To continuously examine existing and upcoming features and to ensure they enhance the gameplay experience
The UN: The team to run and administer battledays, working hard to ensure you have a smooth, fair and fun fight
Support team: For web/forum development, recruitment, advertising, etc.

You can also assist in the organisation of your army. Help in training, battleplanning or reconnaissance.
Or if you have it in you: Become an officer and lead your own unit in battle!

Even if you can only commit to being involved as a player, you are a valued part of the tournament.
Your voice is important because your opinion matters.

Join Theatre of War and be part of a unique tournament by players, for players!
