This guide assumes that i have already mastered the player's step by step to use ARMATAK, especially for helping newcomers as the mission maker. In order to fully run ARMATAK, you must have already configured a TAK Server (i highly recommend you to use [OpenTAKServer](https://docs.opentakserver.io/)) instance correctly. It's not a easy job for newcomers to the TAK environment but i always try to give a light on it.

ATAK-CIV is publicly available on [Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.atakmap.app.civ&hl=pt_BR), download and authorize the permissions on your phone (there are many of them, it quite makes sense because of the functions required). If you are not going to use SIMTAK, just go to your connections and add the desired TAK Server instance that your game session will use and you are good to go, if not, follow the SIMTAK installation bellow.
