**What is Battlegroup Orion?**

Orion is a semi-realistic Halo Arma 3 ODST and Marine unit primarily based in the United States. We do have times that are friendly to EU players as well. We have three types of paths: ODST, Marines, and Aviation.

Here are some key things about Orion:

* We are a semi-realism unit focused more on a "fun", rather than a "serious" environment. However, we still hold to the milsim structure inside and outside of operations.
* Our operations take place during engagements with both the Insurrectionist and Covenant forces but focus on battles during Operation Trebuchet. Orion is made by Arma Veterans who have played the game for years, and our main focus is on keeping a tight-knit group who can enjoy the game at its core.
* We actively have opportunities for many MOS and Leadership positions in our unit and don't discriminate against anyone who wishes to try their hand at said billets.
* Custom armor is available for active members, and is not restricted by rank.

**Available Detachments?**

**1st Platoon "Ares" & 2nd Platoon "Icarus" ODSTs**

Our ODST squads focus on dropping into hot AOs with Drop Pods, Paradropping, and quick pelican assaults. If you’re looking to be a shock trooper, look no further than the helljumpers.

**1st Platoon "Ares" & 2nd Platoon "Icarus" Marines**

Our Marines are Infantry/Mechanized detachment that focuses on dropping into the thick of things, utilizing Heavy weapons and vehicles, Paradropping in the dead of night, and hot pelican assaults. Our marines are our mainline detachment and focuses on being able to be as efficient as possible in multiple areas such as: squad tactics, marksmanship, demolitions, and vehicle expert.

**"Nyx" Squadron**

Nyx is the aviation detachment that focuses on dropping the hate on top of our enemies and transporting infantry from place to place. They provide Close Air Support (CAS), control of the skies, and recon. Nyx is our greatest asset in achieving victory on the battlefield and they are trained in radios, aircraft, and resupplies.
