6/8 Battalion is a newly-established competitive Military Simulation unit run by former and current military personnel from the Australian and New Zealand Defence Forces. 

Clan members will be taught genuine military doctrine from experienced instructors, and organised into sections, platoons, and companies with other like-minded players to form lasting bonds and enjoy a serious MilSim experience. Members will undertake a 4-week basic training course, during which the fundamentals of contemporary military strategy will be taught twice a week, including:

-🎖️Drill

-🌲Fieldcraft

-⚔️Battlecraft

-💣Weapons handling

-📡Radio Telephone (RATEL) procedure

-🗺️Section and platoon-level tactics

Following basic training, recruits will undergo role-specific training for a further 2 weeks, after which time recruits are qualified to join the unit in public games, events, and matches against other clans. The clan is currently focused on Squad, but future games will include ARMA, Flashpoint, and more.
