Welcome to the Allied Armed Forces Academy! The academy is found in Berlin, Germany, this is where the Allied Freedom Fighters take up their Officer Candidacy Course, in order for them to serve fully the interest of the Allied Armed Forces and prepare them for the encounters that await them in the battleground. The opponent is unforgiving, those who dare to step into the main battleground untrained is a fool. Those who enlist themselves for training in the academy are brave, for they do not know for certain what will be their fate out there, or wether or not they'd come back alive to enjoy the fruits of their efforts.

Academy Notes

To succeed in the academy missions you must follow these guidelines:

• Always obey your superior officer, the officer is always right.

• Obey first before you complain.

• If you think your Superior is wrong, see the first guideline

• Be creative, dont rely upon your Superior officer to make actions, do something you think would benefit the whole platoon.

• Be a team player, we give credit to the team player rather than the superhero type, being a team is an asset, use it.

• Follow the story line, don't go jumping off to your own world.

• Remember that 6th infantry is a military game, therefore you should act with military discipline at all times.

• Dont Forget to have fun :)

The missions in academy missions are simple missions (doesn't mean they're not fun) such as seek and destroy, routine patrol and escort and guard duties.
