This is a great addition to ArmA with the 1.14 patch
I am excited at the possibility that exists with USI and this new game mode.
It appears to be something that will be supported by by BIS
""Players must capture whole cities to gain resources that can be channelled into manufacturing even more weapons of war. Each side has one commander, who can build factories and defensive structures in and around their base. As long as they have enough money and resources, players can use these factories to build units, weapons and vehicles. Defensive structures can be used to defend bases and the units stationed there.
Players must take account of logistical considerations outside their bases and cities too as truck convoys ferrying supplies between settlements are vulnerable to attack. Players on each side are divided into a maximum of 16 teams. The commander can give these teams side missions and specify tasks or objectives, coordinating the entire side to ensure victory. This is war on a unprecedented scale, even for ARMA! ""

Thanks for all the responses people. A lot of hard work has gone into this mission and it's good to finally be able to share it with all of you. As the "1.0" indicated this certainly won't be the final incarnation of Warfare, so bug reports and gameplay feedback are certainly welcome.
But we have far bigger plans in store than just a few bug fixes. Head over to the Developer's Blog to get a first glimps of what's to come
