One of the difficult things about approaching a possibility space as large as the one presented by ArmA 3 is deciding what you actually want to do with it. Beyond the campaign, there's the game's powerful editor which allows players to create remarkably complex combined arms combat scenarios across vast land masses. But if you're like me, sometimes that's a bit... much. Sometimes I'd rather just fire up a quick game and lead a fire team over a hill to shoot some bad guys.

Thankfully, some truly amazing mods have emerged over the past year, so we've put together this guide to cover some of the new content out there - whether it's total conversions, new models, or AI environments, you should be able to find something for you in this list.

Note: Mods are often custom-built for a single map, but even if you're not interested in that environment, chances are pretty good that there's another version of the mod available for your preferred landmass. Just do a little searching in the Steam Workshop, and you're likely to find what you're after.
