Camping August 2025

Welcome Back to the Madness - Irish Shire edition

A nod to the few standing tall, a warm welcome to the new faces, and a salute to those who’ve stuck around through the chaos. Alpha Unit isn’t dead far from it. We’ve just evolved, grown older, and, in some cases, a little stranger. But that’s what makes us… us.

Once upon a time, in a land of grass, trees, and dodgy Wi-Fi or perhaps dialup, a bunch of misfits gathered online to game. Were you one of the gang who laughed, and occasionally screamed into the void?. Through matches, missions, and more than a few questionable decisions some that had cataclysmic consequences, bonds were formed. Somehow, against all odds, we’re still here, well I'm still here and you are too if you are reading this tale.

The Camping Plan

Somewhere along the way, someone had the bright idea to get us all together in the real world. Scary ideas all considering at the time....

A camping trip. In the UK. August 2025.

Eight people signed up. Then four dropped out. Then three random legends joined in. That’s Alpha in a nutshell chaos wrapped in commitment.

Now, I’ll be honest: sleeping on the ground isn’t my idea of fun. But meeting the voices behind the mics? Putting faces to tags? Sharing a fire, a drink, and a laugh? That’s worth every mosquito bite, them fuckers best be on their best behaviour or i'll melt them with fire and smoke from said fire.....

The Alpha Code

Let’s be clear about something: Alpha Unit isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay. We have a few simple rules that keep this madness fun:

• Zero tolerance for bullshit : drama belongs in soaps, not our Discord
• Be kind or be quiet : if you can’t, the door’s right there
• Adults only : if you act like a child, expect to be treated like one
• Mental health matters : we’ve all got our quirks, so don’t be a dick about it
• Keep the peace : relationships, pronouns, who fancies who… handle it like grown-ups

We’re here to game, laugh, and have each other’s backs. That’s it.

The Future

Discord might have gone quiet for a while, but Alpha Unit never died. This site, this community, this tent peg in the ground is here to remind you why we started all this in the first place:

the love of gaming, the chaos of camaraderie, and the absolute joy of taking the piss out of each other without crossing the line.

If you’re reading this, you’re part of Alpha. Maybe not in the same way you were before. Maybe in a new and improved way. Who knows? The only thing we ask is simple: bring your good energy, your good humour, and your willingness to look out for your fellow Alphas.

The games are loading. Ghosts to hunt. Gulags to escape. Buildings to build, Friendships to make and laughs to be had, a baggage and drama to left outside at all times, only share what your and the other people are comfortable with.

Alpha lives. Always has. Always will. this is the gospel according to the FLY
