Hello, I'm looking into buying a dedicated server to host some alive missions with about 4-10 people. I was wondering if someone could suggest a decent provider for arma 3 servers? Also, what are the benefits of having a headless client in an arma 3 server?

Headless clients give the benefit of less load on the server, resulting in overall better performance. The headless client can act almost like a second server-instance and is able to handle things such as AI so that the main server can focus on other tasks. This also tends to have a side effect of AI being quicker and more reactive due to being completely handled on the headless client instead of the server which also must put processing power towards other tasks.

Thanks for your reply, also love your mission Operation Landlord!

For the size of your group an HC might not be required... you could always try without to start.
