Formed in 2018, 2 R ANG draws on years of knowledge from its members, allowing us to provide a high-quality, immersive experience working with British Army Standard Operating Procedures.

The POACHERS are a Light Mechanised Infantry (‘LMI’) Battalion. Utilising the Foxhound Light Protected Patrol Vehicle, we move swiftly, with aggression to take the fight to the enemy; operating with aviation enhancing our dispersed and range capability.

Learn the Six Section Battle Drills during Phase 1 before being assigned to a section, here you'll be able to choose a role such as; Pointman, Sharpshooter, Grenadier, Team Medic, or Machine Gunner.

IC and 2IC roles are available following the completion of our FTCC.

Here you'll take part in; Conventional Section-level and Platoon-level attacks, Urban Warfare, Reconnaissance Patrols, Fighting in Woods and Forests, Ambushes, Counter-Insurgency Operations and more.


The unit aims to provide its members with an ‘authentic’ military simulation experience.

We strongly adhere to British Army Standard Operating Procedures (‘SOPs’) so far as the ARMA 3 engine allows.

To achieve this we use a number of first and secondhand sources as well as being fortunate enough to have active military personnel advising our every move.

More specifically, we aim to emulate the 2nd Battalion, the Royal Anglian Regiment. This battalion conuct themselves as Light Mechanised Infantry (‘LMI’) utilising the Foxhound Light Protected Patrol Vehicle.

Light mechanised infantry possesses sufficient organic protected lift for operational and tactical mobility. When supported by aviation these combined arms groupings can operate in a dispersed manner and at range while retaining organic protected mobility and the flexibility to redeploy rapidly. Light mechanised infantry can be employed in ground-holding dismounted close combat, but will be required to be grouped with or supported by heavy forces where mission, threat and terrain dictates.


The minimum age requirement for the unit is 18.

However, above all else we value: Courage, Discipline, Respect for Others, Integrity, Loyalty, and Selfless Commitment.

Therefore in exceptional circumstances, we may accept applicants as young as 16 years of age if they demonstrate our core values.
