About Command Squad

Command Squad is a community-operated Squad server network built around a simple idea: the best Squad matches happen when squads coordinate, leaders lead, and administration is firm, fair, and invisible until it's needed. No ego. No drama. Just good games.

The mission

Squad is at its best as a team game — 98 players, real communication, plans that survive contact for at least a few minutes. That experience doesn't happen by accident. It happens on servers where expectations are clear, squad leaders are supported, and disruptive behavior is handled quickly and consistently.

Our mission is to run that kind of server — and to be the community where players who want that experience can find each other, whether they have 4,000 hours or none at all.

What we value

• Teamwork and communication. The game is called Squad. Play it with yours.
• Strong, supported leadership. Squad leading is the hardest job on the server. We make it easier with guides, mentorship, and squads that follow their SL.
• New-player support. "New player friendly" isn't a server-name keyword here — it's a culture we enforce on ourselves. Everyone answers questions; nobody dogpiles a mistake.
• Firm but fair administration. Clear rules, consistent enforcement, judgment based on intent and context. No ego-driven admin actions.
• Community-first decisions. Server health, match quality, and long-term stability outrank convenience and short-term popularity.
• Sustainability. Systems that don't burn out staff, and funding that never buys gameplay advantage.

Structure without the milsim baggage

Plenty of communities deliver coordination by wrapping it in ranks, salutes, mandatory trainings, and paperwork. That works for some people. It isn't us.

We keep the parts of structure that make matches better — squad cohesion, inter-squad comms, defined expectations — and drop the parts that make a game feel like a second job. You will never be ordered to address anyone as "sir" on a Command Squad server. You will be asked to stick with your squad and use your microphone.

How the community is run

Command Squad is guided by its leadership and a Community Council, with departments covering administration, events, and community programs. Development direction is public: the roadmap shows what's shipped, what's being built, and what's under review. Community feedback is genuinely reviewed — and implementation decisions prioritize server health, performance, and long-term stability.

Day to day, that looks like: active admin coverage on both servers, published rules with explained intent, a player support pathway for reports and appeals, and community programs — seeding recognition, events, mentorship — described on the Community page.

Fairness, in writing

• The rules apply to everyone — members, supporters, staff, and first-time visitors alike.
• Financial support never buys gameplay advantages or rule exemptions. Whitelist access means a reserved queue slot, nothing more.
• Moderation decisions can be appealed through a documented process.
• We use the Community Ban List to keep repeat bad actors out — and we hold our own conduct to the same standard we ask of players.
