Interest in ArmA began within BMW not long after Rust had began to taper off as a primary source of gaming for the group. A channel was created on May 24th 2016 for ArmA, and Bimmers began playing individually in different game modes as the group began to form up. | Interest in ArmA began within BMW not long after Rust had began to taper off as a primary source of gaming for the group.

ARMA 3 proved to be one of the most important games in BMW history, as it allowed the group to seamlessly pivot from being a Rust group exclusively, to being a gaming groups, giving the group the ability to further expand over the next few years. | |||

The first server BMW landed on was called Sager Gaming, running the Exile mod for ArmA, which essentially turned the game into Rust with APCs. The map was a large Russian like map (Possibly Beketov). BMW with its 6+ players was easily the largest group on the server, and therefor ran roughshod over anyone and everyone. The admins in particular were not fans of this, and when the Bimmers began harassing people in the safe zones by repeatedly running them over with APCs, the admin teleported everyone and their vehicles to the farthest northeast corner of the maps and asked them kindly to stop. | The first server BMW landed on was called Sager Gaming, running the Exile mod for ArmA, which essentially turned the game into Rust with APCs.
