Situational Awareness is the first online magazine focusing on the Multi-Player (MP) scene of the top-notch PC-based Simulators.

The magazine features the SA World Rankings for online-active single players and clans.
Best performances will be monitored and processed through this fully integrated and customizable ranking system.

The Rankings are here to help players so they can increase their skills and have fun. Having something that offers an all year long ranking system can help people determine where they rank and how much improvement they need and of course train with the best of the best. They are many players out there with different styles and tactics. This system would help them figure what they need help on.

Initial intent was a P-51 1vs1 BFM contest but according to general feedback, DCS World's MP is not very stable yet and ED is obviously working hard on a patch to fix that. Meanwhile, SA is glad to announce its 1st FC2 1vs1 BFM tournament. <br><br>

Rules(please read carefully):

- 1 vs 1 BFM competition (guns only).
- Best of 3 rounds with knock out stages.
- Event type : STT (Short Term Tournament).
- Minimum players for the tournament to start : 16
- Maximum players before closing the sign up : 32
- Top 8 players will earn SA points.
- Event rating will be determined according to the average SA Ranking. The higher the rating, the more points at stake.
- Players will be seeded according to SA Rankings.
- Map will be ready soon for download. (Ramp start. Initial distance between opponents about 100km. Bases will be protected by short range SAM's)
- Authorized payload : Cannon only
- External views and padlock prohibited
- Free fuel setting.
- Both players have to take off simultaneously, reach the target zone on time and stay within the CAP area for at least 3mn. Exiting the CAP bubble too early is considered a loss regardless of the round outcome.
- To collect the round, players must neutralize opponent (actual kill or tactical kill), RTB and land on home base.
- 1 refuel/rearm is allowed per round for each player.
- Players can alternate hosting and swap air bases after each round.

Congratulations to =Alpha=KOT from Russia, our FC2 1vs1 Guns Only Tournament Winner!



This tournament was the first edition of the TOP GUN Series events.
As previously mentioned, a video featuring best moments of semi-finals and final match is being worked on and will be available asap.

Next similar event may be around the corner already and will probably be an FC3 event, and we hope to get more participants next time. Sponsors are also being contacted to offer prizes/rewards in the future.

SA Magazine is proud to announce the launch of ‘SA Battles’, a new Multiplayer combat league starting this month as a SA Rankings official T.M.C event (Tactical Mission / Campaign).

SA-Battles has been created to give the multiplayer community more events and the chance to work as part of a large scale organized coalition with realistic objectives and missions.

Events will be split into 2 different formats.

First is the traditional Red vs Blue with both teams having equal air and ground assets just like previous OPFOR events.

The second format will mirror the real world Red Flag operation as close as possible with an outnumbered RedFor taking on an extremely capable BluFor. RedFor pilots for the Red Flag events will be invited to compete based on SA rankings and Squadron performance to take on the best of the rest in a fight outnumbered at least 2to1 with a very clear objective….. defend!

The event missions will be large scale and engineered to replicate modern day air war objectives. Both sides in all SA-Battle events will be fully complimented with EWR and AWACS assets from the off. We have chosen to steer away from the traditional ‘Target Area’ set up for SA-Battles, instead the ground war will exclusively focus on the SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defence)assets and EWR stations. The ‘air war’ is all about total air supremacy over friendly ground stations and the protection of AWACS and Tanker assets, this results in both teams having to plan very carefully in the assignment of CAPs and managing the number of aircraft available during the 4 hour competition.
Red and Blue sides will both be lead by a Force Commander (FoComm) the selection of the FoComm will be done on an application basis through the new SA forum.

SATAC is a Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 3 Force on Force match based community event for Air Superiority virtual squadrons and wings. This event has been initially created by the 51st PVO Regiment in 2011 but got postponed since then. Now with FC3 officially released, we feel this could be the right moment to finally run this exciting contest of teamwork and proficiency and what better air combat simulator to host such showdown than DCS World.

Many squadrons are very active online and run advanced training programs for their pilots. FC1 era has seen RvE on top as they won the FORTIS dogfight championship twice. With FC2, we have seen the undefeated 51st PVO regiment in the spotlight with more than 20 wins in a row over many squadrons between 2008 and 2011.

Will RvE resuscitate to claim the 2013 crown, will 51st come out on top and prove teamwork and discipline unbeatable, will 104th experienced and talented pilots prevail or will we witness the rise of a new squadron?

SATAC 2013 is the next episode and the online battlefield has never been fiercer, who will rise to the challenge and shine as the ultimate 2013 Air Superiority virtual Squadron?

Joint Warrior 3 is the 3rd sequel of our Joint Warrior tactical battle series for Digital Combat Simulator, which we started a few months ago in association with both, the 104th Virtual Fighter and Bomber Squadron and the 51st PVO Regiment.

After the success of JW1 an JW2, here we come again for more action inviting DCS pilots across the globe to join us for another night of force on force air combat.

Joint Warrior 3 is the perfect opportunity for those who would like to improve themselves as DCS combat pilots as we will once again have some of the finest pilots out for blood.
Beyond the competition aspect itself, JW is also a great gathering of people sharing the same hobby and an excellent opportunity to forge new friendships and interact with some of the most iconic squadrons on the DCS scene.
