Dec 18th OP:Rainbow Redeemer

[Professor]

Operation: Rainbow Redeemer

This is a fictitious military action fashioned after the Grenada and Panamanian assaults. The characters and locations are not real.

Location: Former Soviet satellite nation Kovenistan

Situation: The newly “elected” dictatorial government of Kovenistan, led by Valdimir Kolensky, is saber rattling and threatening the “acquisition” of the US Embassy and the US military facilities at Ft. Anderson located in the city of Bulgar. Ft Anderson is located in a strategic location overlooking European and Asian “trade” activity and is a key element in the US drug war as well as a calming hand on the stability in the region.
The newly “elected” government, which only recently attained independence from the Russains, has decided to flex it’s muscles and demonstrate it’s independence and unilaterally acquire foreign assets in a show of power. It is believed that Tumania and a collection of other former Soviet satellite governments have given their blessings and commitment of support to this action.

Threats: US interests are threatened including the US Army post Ft Anderson, the US Embassy to Kovenistan, as well as the Engineering University of Kovenistan. It is believed that other friendly nations interests are also at stake. Ft Anderson is a key element in the control of European and Asian drug trafficking and overlooks a facility, which mines at least 20% of the coal and natural gas the US consumes. Obviously, this is of a strategic interest to the US.

WHERE: War Game Field
WHEN: Sunday, December 18th 2005
Gear up and chrono between 8:30 and 9:30am
Game start at 10am sharp!

More details to come...das vedanyah!

[TheMexican]

Sounds good what will teams be?

[OverKill]

More details to come...das vedanyah! ;)

[Timmay]

uhhhh......Youd imagine US forces, and Russian/Communist based. Unless nobody reads, or did any research on Grenada. As for uniforms, more to come.

[TheMexican]

wasn't sure if there would be a gov team and rebel then us or what thanks for clarifing.

[Professor]

Well, the word "Rainbow" has some specific meaning...there are students from all over the world attending the Engineering University and their country men are worried about them.

Otherwise, there will be some Soviet style troops, some US troops, and some "others" :D

more to come....

[NATHANIELJONESTHUGANGEL]

This story/game sounds great, hopefully it's as fun as your last game (BHD) was.

[nemesis]

sounds like another great game and if this is like world war 2 i want to be the russian sniper lol jk

any ways i always look forward to playing your games and will try to get there

[RTO]

sounds like another great game and if this is like world war 2 i want to be the russian sniper lol jk

any ways i always look forward to playing your games and will try to get there
lol, we're going to ask for you to use only WWII era sniper weapons, just to give it more of that realism;) j/k

I'll see whats what once winter comes around (work get A LOT busier once winter and snow starts to fall) and i'll get back to you. Would love to come though

[SPANKY *AK-47*]

Yeah, im the same as RTO...ill have to see how cold it is...im in only if it is above -10 (you know us wisconsin People LOL) :D

[Viper]

Should have been at Op: Deep Freeze. ;)

I'll check with the boys to see if we can pencil this in. Would have to come down the day before which could cause some problems. I'll keep you posted though.

[BoBgOdS66]

lol, we're going to ask for you to use only WWII era sniper weapons, just to give it more of that realism;) j/k

The tanaka kar98 is a superb sniper rifle. Game sounds interesting, I like these eastern european based scenarios.

[RTO]

Yeah, im the same as RTO...ill have to see how cold it is...im in only if it is above -10 (you know us wisconsin People LOL) :D
Heck, I'm in only if it gets to be -10 below. Lol, I love winter, but when ya mix airsoft (expensive guns by the time this game comes around) and clod and water, ummm.... Something is bound to happen because I'm a clutz. I trip over my own boots enough in the spring-fall with twigs and branches at Op... I'd hate to see what would happen if it was ice instead of a twig or branh. Already bruised my brain once because of that, and still got the bruise there, don't need to put anohter one on.

Back to skrimish discussion, as soon as I can request off for this game, I'll do so. It might be the only "large scale" winter airsoft game I make it too.:D

[Maple]

RTO, don't worry about the cold and snow. I've more than once dropped my AEG in the snow and once in Gary's stream. Other than needing a good cleaning, the AEG was okay.

[Ben]

GOD! Not another PAINTSOFT GAME!!! haha jk, sounds cool I'll try and make it.

[RTO]

RTO, don't worry about the cold and snow. I've more than once dropped my AEG in the snow and once in Gary's stream. Other than needing a good cleaning, the AEG was okay.
Swa-eet! Then as far as the weather goes, I'll be in no matter what. I"ll just call ya up maple if I drop my gun;). I just have to make sure I can get off for the day. As of right now, I'm 95% sure that I'll make it.

[The_Ska_King]

I'm going to be there :D

[Wrex]

Bring the Hat! I may come, depends on the kill/regen rules.

[Zorro]

It's almost a certainty that I will be there. It's the first day after I'm done with finals, so I'll need a good way to unwind.

[KA-JJ]

im there

[SigPro552]

I'll see if I can swing it; its in between my finals. I have one on the 17th and then 2 on the 20th so I'll see.

[Professor]

School IS more important...I'd fully understand your not attending.

[Maple]

Count me in Prof. as this will be my last skirm for awhile. After 7 years of putting it off, I'm finally having my knee surgery in late Dec.
-maple

[nemesis]

good luck with the surgery and i plan on being there prof as long as i can get off

[KA-JJ]

Count me in Prof. as this will be my last skirm for awhile. After 7 years of putting it off, I'm finally having my knee surgery in late Dec.
-maple

NO MAPLE, YOUR KNEE CAN WAIT, CONTINUE THE AIRSOFTING :D
just playing dude, tell me when and where you go in, im gonna visit you everyday ;)

[Professor]

Okay guys -

I'm gonna need some volunteers - not a complete list as of yet, more later, but here goes for now...

1) 6 guys is marpat digital to play the roles of Marine guards for the US Embassy.
2) 1 person in civilian clothing to play the role of the US Embassador.
3) 6 people in civilian clothing to play the roles of engineering students.

These roles will all play importnat roles in the event as will others, more roles to be defined...

[Zorro]

Ill be a student if you want. Or the Ambassador. Or whatev.

[Professor]

Your choice Zorro...either be a target or a Marine...oh, that's the same ;)

[Vigilante]

Hmm, since this ficticious country is a former soviet sattelite country, I think I will wear my Commissar outfit to this one as well. I can't wait, it sounds like fun.!

[sloppy joe]

finally an excuse to be a commie! ill see how my work sheduel looks, but otherwise count me in.

[Professor]

Event update - Col Maple will be playing the role of Valdimir Kolensky and Tiger Recon wearing their tiger stripes will play the role of his Kovenistan Elite Special Guards.

I'm coordinating other parts as we speak and will announce them as finalized. However, I still need people to play the previously posted roles -
1) 6 guys is marpat digital to play the roles of Marine guards for the US Embassy.
2) 1 person in civilian clothing to play the role of the US Embassador.
3) 6 people in civilian clothing to play the roles of engineering students.
as well as some NEW Roles
4) I'll need a large number of Kovenistan Army personnel dressed in woodland.

Zorro and others, all kidding aside, the Ambassador will more or less be a target...maybe armed - who knows. The Marines will be armed and defending the Embassy and the Ambassador...with possible alternate missions/objectives as events occur.

[KA-JJ]

Thanks for the part Prof

TR is ready for the challenge that i havent read about yet :D

[perculator]

sunday game Im in. :) plop me where ever you need me

[Zorro]

Will the students be armed? What are the "new roles" (if you can say)?

[demonmutiny]

I will be a Kovenistan Army personnel, just regular woodland right, and no weapon classifications

[Professor]

Students may or may not be armed...ya neva know...and the other roles, well, all will be revealed at the proper time :D


Demon - Thanks for choosing a role...that's correct, US woodland and no weapon specifications.

[Dogboy]

Hey Prof, I'm not sure about the elite part, but most of us are "special". :D

[Professor]

Event updates:

Task Force 44 has been formed of a coalition of multiple country's Special Forces including Delta, GSG9, SAS and others as a rescue force to protect the various citizens of numerous countries attending the Kovenistan Engineering University as students and to quell any intentions of "acquiring" US or other country's assets by the newly formed Kovenistan government.

Rumor has it as well, that Russian Spetnaz forces may be assembling at a point on the Russian and Kovenistan border. Currently, the Russian government has denied any such build up.

Additional Roles and Existing Role Clarifications

1) Task Force 44 - I need persons to take on the role of a rescue force made up from various countries...so uniforms will vary from OD BDUs, German Flecktarn, British DPM, US MARPAT, etc.

2) Rusian Spetnaz Commandos - I need persons to take on the role of Russian commandos dressed in black BDUs and other Russian camo/uniforms.

3) Students - will be initially armed with pistols and if rescued or killed will transition to Kovenistan civilian militia and will become fully armed. The participants will wear civilian clothing initially, but will eventually add full LBVs, ammo belts, whatever and possibly camo tops...pants must remain civilian.

More to come.....das vedanya.

[Vigilante]

Hey, professor, i will dress up in my black bdu and be a russian spetz, after all, taht is what my team is....

[Professor]

I somehow figured that might fit you... ;)

[newMP5user]

depending on what the marpart camo layout is along with the use of either a helmet or boonie hat. ill play as a marine guard. also do they have a specific weapon type?

[newMP5user]

can i bring a friend that wants to watch a game? what are the rules on that?

[Ben]

My teams uniform is Marpat digital, so you can use us as the role of embassy guards, we will try to get exact numbers soon.

[Vigilante]

can i bring a friend that wants to watch a game? what are the rules on that?


He only has to pay a fee if he wants to enter the field, I beleive. If not, he can just watch, he will be bored and jelous.

[newMP5user]

i need to change my side from marines... to russian.

[spraynpray]

i shall be there and i will be russian.

[Zorro]

I will be a student.

[Razor]

Prof, please add Razor, Raspootin, and Seppuku to the Russian team. Thanks.

[Scythe]

My friend and I are thinking about coming but, we have a few qestions because this is our first game that we were seriously thinking about going to. I'm sorry if this should of been in the new comers instead of events. I thought I should put it here because its specific to this game. I noticed it didn't say anything about age limit. We're both 15. Is it ok for us to play? We're kinda under equiped. What do we need I have 3 standard magazines for my M4 S-system and a gas side arm and camo. Would this be enough to play? My friend has a famas with only one magazine and a gas sidearm. and we're lacking in tac vest department, we only have camo. We don't know how these games work. I heard organized games suck from some people and are unfriendly to younger people....So would we be welcomed? Sorry for asking so many questions.

I almost forgot one last thing, where is this course located? Whats it look like? Everyone keeps saying War Game Field where exactly is that? Near waukasha is maybe where i read it.

[Vigilante]

WGR field is located between batavia and cascade, it is up in sheboygan county, you have a good 60 mile drive ahead of you. It is located off of highway 28 and SS. I always thought it was 144, but it turns off sometime back and highway 28 and SS is where it is located, take SS west, and its on the right side about 300 yards. Ask gary for specific directions.

for the most part everyone from every team is very nice and you will enjoy yourself alot at this field for it being your first time. As long as you are not immature and do stupid things then every other team will welcome you with open arms :D . O and from what I have been through, you shouldnt really need a tac vest and a gun and a few clips will do just fine for a first game. You might want to get a waiver signed by parents ahead of time before going if your only 15. full seal goggles will also be needed (didnt know if u mentioned) all in all all the teams in Wisconsin have a good attitude and will treat u very well and i know for a fact u will have a good time O and from the looks of the weather IMO i dont think gas will work very well. Organized games are the best to play in and its easy to welcome new kids into the scene and playing at WGR is a good field and not to mention is incredibly cheap to

[spraynpray]

Well said Sanchez. I was also unsure about organized games until the first time I went to an event(BHD which was also run by Professor). I was'nt sure if players would welcome me or not and to my delight I found that just about everybody there was very helpful with every question I had and was patient with me.LOL! I would highly recommend going to a game at Gary's, its a good field for both noobs and advanced players. Well I guess thats all from me. I hope that this post reassures you a little. ;)

Scythe-
Most games at WGR are 15yr.+ events. Since you are under 18, you will need your parents to sign a waiver for the event.
As for gear, the two things I will suggest are a canteen and a radio. Both will be your best friends.
Don't worry about not having 20 hi-caps, a sweet looking LBV and all kinds of other random gear. I have every piece of gear you can think of and I still suck. The only difference is that I look good when I suck.
Since you have only a few mags, that means you will have to play smart vs. hosing down the field. It'll be a good learning experience.
As for how the game will work, Professor (who is running the event) will give a mission briefing before we hit the field. He'll let us know everything we need to know to play the mission. You'll find that the people at the skirm will be just like what you find in the real world. Most are friendly, some just don't care to talk to strangers and a handful of us (myself included) are asshats. Trust me when I say that you will make some new friends that day and also you will let everybody out there know who you are.
That's about all I gotta say about that.

He isnt kidding when he says he looks good. He makes my boyfriend jelous.

[Professor]

Attention all attendees

Several have asked - This event requires WAA AEC and will require knowledge and compliance to WAA Rules of Conduct.

[Dogboy]

I'm still gonna be there Prof! Hope that's alright with you! :D

[Kramer]

I'll try to make it, if there is an AEC within now and the operation. Birthday is on the 16th of December, so i'd really like to make this.

[spraynpray]

Does everyone need an AEC or just a specific age group?

[Ben]

less than 18 needs AEC for this event. Most games at gary's dont require them, but for whatever reason this one does.

[spraynpray]

Ah then this does not concern me because I am over 18.

[Professor]

Attention all attendees
As per request of the field owner, AEC attendance will not be mandatory for this event. However, if you have not already done so, please down load, read, and understand the WAA Code of Conduct. Thank you.

[Scythe]

Thanks for answering my questions, as of right now I'm going alone, my friend's excuse is that hes under equiped. Anyway, are roles decided at the game or before? I mean for the roles where the most people are going to be put. Not the special ones where you an embassador or something.

[Doc]

I'll be at the event if weather and (work if I have it) let me.

As long as he has something that can shoot longer than 30 feet he'll do fine. Even just pistols are fine!

[demonmutiny]

thank god, if this required aec, i wouldnt be going to any till jan or even longer!! yah, im gonna try my hardest to make this game sounds fun

[Kramer]

So this means that AEC isint required then?

[Vigilante]

So this means that AEC isint required then?


Correct my good sir.

[Beasthunter33]

Yeah most of Garyb's games (at least games at his field) don't require an AEC. But it's always good to check.

[Kramer]

Looks like i cannot make it. My mom is refusing to drive me. Its a real pain considering that every single saturday she goes driving around with her boyfriend or on his motorcycle for about 5 hours, but she cant spend 2 hours to drive me to an airsoft operation and drive me back home a few hours later.

Where are you located? You might be able to hitch a ride with someone. Just chip in for petrol.

[Bucket]

you mean gas

[knob]

or propane

[Beasthunter33]

or charcol

[Ben]

oh derailment

[Beasthunter33]

Okay since I had some part in getting this thread off track I will help get it back on track by saying that Youth in asia (friend of mine on the forums, we know each other in real life) and me will try and make it to this game. I'm also hoping to get to the game on the 4th. hopefully I can get my gun working by the time these skirmishes take place. If not I'll try to get to the one on the 22nd.

[Beasthunter33]

Sorry to double post but may I ask what is going to be raffled off? sorry if this is an inappropriate question just curious as to how much money I should bring. ;)

[Maple]

Usually the number of people in attendance dictates what is raffled off. The more people, the more stuff gets raffled, or the more expensive the prizes are.
Low attendance= not many prizes.

[Beasthunter33]

Alright, so everyone come to this game and I'll take 50 tickets. ;)

[tmoney]

proff. ill be there put me on whatever team, ill be in woodland

[garyb]

Raffle prizes may include an AEG, pump shotgun, Tac Vest, BB's and more depending on the turn out.

[Downslide]

Professor, you can count me in as well.

[Professor]

[Red Friday]

hey prof, i plan to be there and i'd be willing to be part of the Kovenistan Army team

[Downslide]

Tell you what, I'll play a target. I will try to get a set of digitals by then, and play on the Embassy Detail. Otherwise I'd be willing to wear a tie and play the embassador--uh, would i at least get a sidearm?

[spraynpray]

I'll see who I can round up from Oshkosh area to bring along with me. Probably will only be 1 or 2. Let you know later.

[Professor]

Red Friday - glad to hear it. Kov Army it is then.

Downslide - you know we got the "meanst and badest Ambassadors anywhere". The Ambassadors part will start with a side arm, but may "acquire" a long gun as the battle ensues. You know, pick one up from a dead Marine or hostile. Of course, if you're armed it may mean that the hostiles will be more, well ... hostile. ;)

[Stelthturkey]

Hey professer, I took off so if rto and some other members of the team can come down i would be willing to be an Engineering student or a Rusian Spetnaz Commando, and the rto and spanky probably will prolly want to do the same?!?

[Downslide]

Downslide - ... Of course, if you're armed it may mean that the hostiles will be more, well ... hostile. ;)

If i play the embassador? Gimme a break. US Embassador's might as well wear a big pink and blue blinking neon target on their backs with a sign that says "I am the primary representation of the United States of Capitalistic Scum. Please feel free to take out any and all frustrations you may have by turning your automatic weapons in my direction."

Sounds like fun.

[Beasthunter33]

Sweet! I think it's safe to say that you can count a friend and me in as well. put us where you need us.

[Professor]

a sign that says "I am the primary representation of the United States of Capitalistic Scum.

I couldn't have put it better myself 'ole chap!.

[Professor]

BTW, folks, please don't say "put me where you want me". I have no idea what uniform BDUs you have and I want people to follow the uniform recommendations. So, please decide on a force you have the gear for. If I need to make changes afterwards I'll let you know asap. Thanx

[Vigilante]

Yea, so far it lookslike a good amount of people, but they dont know where they want to go. lol.

[spraynpray]

Looks like the Russian team should be good. Hopefully.

[Vigilante]

you mean the spetz, I think so, I dont know what professor has in mind as in terms of people/team, cuz you wouldnt think one team would hugely outnumber another, I hope?

[jones]

If I make it, and god I hope I do. I'll be on Task Force 44

[Beasthunter33]

Sorry Professor, I have a Flecktarn vest (Germany rules!) but also just have a green sweater for a special role / other team. I wouldn't mind being Task Force 44. I'll have to ask my friend what he has for Camo., He posts on the boards though so you can always ask him (youth in asia is his name, "putting down" newbs is his game. ;) ) yourself if you want.

[Downslide]

I couldn't have put it better myself 'ole chap!.

Alrighty then, I guess this means I'll be the Embassador. yippy. JK.

I will scrounge up an old blazer, slacks, and a shirt and tie to look the part. - That would be a blazer WITHOUT the big target on the back, by the way.

[Cricket]

I'll be there Professor

[Kramer]

60% chance of me making it, my mom is saying she will probably take me for my birthday

[Kramer]

*****EDIT****** Question answered, new one. What uniform does the Elite Special Guard have, are full face masks allowed (paintball mask), and Ive never been to the field before, will the save zones be pointed out so i know were to go when i die? or how does that work.

[Professor]

The ESG are being played by Tiger Recon and are wearing Jungle Tiger Stripe. If you have that and want to play that role check with Tiger Recon...they may want or need more.

[Vigilante]

Are we gonig to have a limit as to how much ammo we can carry?

[Kramer]

Are we gonig to have a limit as to how much ammo we can carry?
I hope not. Ive only got 2 mags, 1 60round and 1 300round, but 360 bbs is a lot.

[Vigilante]

I hope not. Ive only got 2 mags, 1 60round and 1 300round, but 360 bbs is a lot.

um, sort of, but, I have 5 hi caps for my ak, thast 3,000 rounds, each hi cap is 600, I can afford to piss ammo, but with my mp5, I have only 4 hi caps, thats 800 rounds. but oh well.

[Stylin7]

Add me with the rest of Tiger Recon on Kovenistan Elite Special Guards. I will be bringing a friend I don't know what uniform he has so I will find out and get back to you with the where he would fit.

[BoBgOdS66]

Hey my SP Muzzelite only has 3 mags of 60 rnds each! :]

[Vigilante]

Hey my SP Muzzelite only has 3 mags of 60 rnds each! :]

well, i basically turned my AK into an RPK..... So yea...Well, my sig is all midcaps. my soon to be sig.

[BlitzedSquirrel]

um, sort of, but, I have 5 hi caps for my ak, thast 3,000 rounds, each hi cap is 600, I can afford to piss ammo, but with my mp5, I have only 4 hi caps, thats 800 rounds. but oh well.

Hahaha, I've got 8 hicaps :D with atleast 2 more comming shortly, it's very handy when you've got a group of AK users running together, you can just trade 'em around when you need 'em. Oh yea, I'm running out of room in my tactvest for mags :D

[Vigilante]

Well, in total, I want 10 hi caps, 2 in each pouch(4 pouches) and two on my gun, I will have a mag clamp, then again, I don't piss out rounds too much, but hey, i think 3600 rounds will be enough...

[Professor]

Lunch, warm up, reload and raffel will occur inbetween
1pm to 3pm
*This means that all objectives will have to have been accomplished within the alotted time. Points will be awarded based on the completed objectives and winners will be determined based on the highest score at the end of the event.

Third -
There will be limited initial load outs for the teams as follows -
1) Task Force 44 and Marine guards- will be limited to 2000bbs (as close as possible) accomodated within whatever magazine configurations desired. Ex = 4 x 500 round UMG mags, or 6 x 200 round MP5 mags, 10 x 220 Sig552 mags, or 7 x 300 round M16/4 mags. If you have a limited number of magazines you may carry the difference in containers such as bb bottles.
****Resupply will be provided by airdrop or helicopter insertion.
2) Kovenistan Army and Elite Special Guards - same initial load out.
****Resupply will be provided via return to armory.
3) Russian Spetnaz Commandos - whatever they want/can carry.
****They may establish a base and return for resupply.
4) Students - same limited load out as TF44 and Russians. No resupply.

Please bring additional ammo and magazines inside an identifiable / marked container such as a small ruck sack or gym bag. Depending on what role they will be placed inside a duffel for airdrop, or inside a bunker or fort for resupply.
Please be honest about your load outs as you would you calling hits

Fourth -
Medic rules:
a) There will be unlimited regens at designated regeneration locations. You must however, place your kill rag in sight and walk/run back to the designated regen/medic station.
b) One person will be designated as a medic and must remain at the regen point. This role may be shared but all changes/swap outs must be radioed to an OC before the new medic becomes operational.
c)Also, the regen / triage location will be allowed to move - yes, it's mobile. Again, all movement must be called into an OC before the new regen point becomes operational.
d) A regen / triage location can be overrun. If the medic is killed or captured, that side's regen point will be non-operational for 10 minutes and a new location will be coordinated with the OCs afterwards.
***Please bring a kill rag.
***Points will be subtracted for not following the regeneration rules - 10 points for each identified violation.

Chronoing will begin at 9am sharp! All additionall briefing will be provided to the appropriate groups at 9:30am before the event starts.

Thank you, that is all.

[Razor]

Good looking game Prof. Quick couple of questions on the regen location; no planning things mind you but these issues might come up.

1. When it's moving, following notification to the OC's, is the regen operational or is it only operational once it's in its new location (i.e. has stopped moving and is at the new destination)?

2. What about "camping" at an enemy regen. For instance, a team overruns an enemy regen spot, does the overrunning/capturing team have to move on or are they allowed to sit and wait for the 10min to expire then recapture it, and so on?

[Professor]

Good questions -

1. The regen spot is only operational once it's in it's new location and the OCs are properly notified.


2. Given the location can change, if it's overrun it proably won't be in the same spot so camping it won't be beneficial. Oh, and don't try following the medic to the new spot, remember, the medics can change too.

[Timmay]

Everything is done in terms of balance also.
So if you think your team isnt given a fair chance supposedly, just remember we have limitations and objectives and "what if" backups for everybody.

[Kramer]

With the ammo, is that for one person or for the whole team?

And should the kill rag just be any red piece of cloth?

[Timmay]

The ammo is per person.

And yes long as we can tell its a red dead rag.

[Vigilante]

Just make sure the rag is big enough for people to see, if you dont have a kill rag, I can lend you one, a simple red hankerchief works well, but it will probably be full of boogers.

[Kramer]

Keep it.

[Professor]

Thanks Timmay for the clairfications. Yes, there is a balanced "objectives and points" list and a logical reason for the elements we have designed. In some instances there will be "if the, else" kind of objective changes too.

BTW, when Timmay and I place people on the field, please be patient until everything is set up and the signal is given. That means some of you will "be told where to go" :] and asked to wait until the appropriate signal. That means "go to the position and stay where put...do not wonder around...stay put. Do not attempt to gain some advantage by leaving your assigned spot to see if you can spot something. Please be patient...the wait will be worth it.

[Professor]

[Timmay]

haha double post. you new to these boards? ;)

[nemesis]

i have a few guys going to the game we have basic woodland camo prof. so we will be on the team that uses basic camo

[Professor]

That would be the Kovenistan Army.

[Kramer]

I guess i'll be with the K. Army also.
(If I show up)

[Dogboy]

Going along with the medic/regen rules, is this to mean that there is both a medic, and a regen point? I'm not saying 2 poinits are needed, but what if the medic gets wasted, how do they respawn?

I like the idea of the "air drop" for resupply. Is this going to be on the mark, or can these drops be captured by the enemy?

[bikemancs]

Professor, while I am new I may be able to attend before i head home for the holidays.

I need a better location...(addy? anyone from beer city going?)

I have a faded version of MARPART, possibly a full set of ACUs by that point. I would be willing to pull any role that is needed (I can change at the field if nessecary)

[Downslide]

Bike, you can hitch a ride with me. This gives me a reason to "have to go, I'm driving" and then "Have to stay, I can't leave him stranded."

We can figure something out. --Vig, keep it clean...

Again, good points DB.

1) The medic is designed into the regen point to be sure that the players are regening at the correct position given they will be mobile. If a player goes to a previous location and no medic is there they have to continue looking for the current regen point. Which brings up another good point - bring a RADIO...it will help with a mike and ear piece...helps not to give away your position.
Yes, the medic can be killed or captured. If killed they will be told a location by an OC where to go and wait for 5 minutes before they can re-establish a new regeneration point. In the interiem...no playes will be able to regenerate until the new location is established. Once the new regen point is established they can distribute knowledge of it's location by any means available...ie. radios, word of mouth, etc. If captured, they must be taken to the other teams regen point and held for 5 minutes and then released.

2) The design for the resupply will allow for them to be potentially captured. The air drops will be made at the request of the TF to be dropped into a "hot DZ". The design of an armory also allows for it to be potentially captured. BTW, neither allows the capturing forces to use or move the captured supplies...just hold them. Which also means that they can be "recovered". The only team that can move the supplies are the owners.

Even next to the President, it looks worse. You typed "a-m-b-a-s-s-a-d-o-r," and yet, all I read is "TARGET."

[Professor]

Yeah, what's yer point? ;) So is the President, the Students, TF44...uh, just about everyone.

[spraynpray]

Hey Professor, you forgot to put me as a Russian Spetz, but thats ok.......................so um..................yea. :]

[Kramer]

Does the medic serve as a regen point or do they actually go out into the field and revive people.

[Timmay]

Its serves as a mobile regen point as if he was setting up a treatment center where he is.

[Kramer]

Ahh. alright, thanks.

[tmoney]

not 100% sure if im still coming but im gonna try, if i do ill be in woodland so i think that was the K army

[Bucket]

[Professor]

Hey Bucket...why don't you guys be part of TF44...the only thing different is the "44" vs. the "D" :D

[Professor]

Spraynpray and Tmoney - got ya down.

[Scythe]

My friend is no longer going its just me. Umm I think just stick my on the K Army for right now.

[Kramer]

[Vigilante]

As long as it works, yep.

[Professor]

[Viper]

Just to let you know Prof, I'm still trying to see if I'll be able to make it, Schedule is looking favorable so far but I won't know fo sure for another week at least. Plus I don't know who else I will be bringing. I'll keep you posted.

[Kramer]

This game will be held as scheduled at the Wargame Field.

Still on the 18th then? Woot sauce

[Freeze]

Me and Dark ( They guy I introduced you to today) will be Russian Spetznats Commandos. We'll be wearing the Black BDUs

[Massacre]

I'll be there

[Ben]

I'll be there



WOOT! Massacre hasnt been around for a while!!

[Scythe]

I just got paid last friday(WOOT!) and getting some new camo. Can I switch to being a guard? Oh and, is marpat digital any sort of digital camo?

[Ben]

here is a pic of marpat digital




http://www.nexternal.com/armynavy/images/1woodlandtee.gif

[BoBgOdS66]

Marpat refers to marine pattern, there are a few digital panterns in use such as canadian and the army's new camo. Our team uses marpat digital woodland camo.

[crimtonic]

well me and my dad have marpat if you still need marines.

also to scyth, i would suggest both you and your buddy get atleast 1 high cap. you really don't need alot of them.

[Freeze]

unless your hot on the trigger and do covering fire alot ^^ I can't wait to use that C-Mag I got, now I just need to figure out how to work it. ( It didn't come with instructions, but who needs instructions ? )

[garyb]

If you are not on the list please let me know, if you want to go to a certain team let me know, not to worry about uniforms since everyone will be wearing heavy clothing anyway.

[spraynpray]

Hmmmmmmm once again I was left off the Russian Spetznaz team. Oh well you can put me back on that and I will be coming with about 3 people from Oshkosh, I'll get call signs and teams ASAP.




Edit: Oh and I could bring a heater to the op in case people decide to take a swim again. Its a Kerosene-Electric heater with a blower fan that shoots out like 40000-60000 btus of heat, but i guess it would be up to Gary.

[Beasthunter33]

Sorry Gary and everyone else for any inconviniences (sp?) but due to a family gathering on the 18th I can't get out of I will be unable to come to the game. :cry: Hope it's not to cold for you all and try and keep my friend from jumping in the creek for me. ;)

Vigilante, get a couple for me will ya.

[youth in asia]

yea, nick wont be able to go, but a friend and i will most likely come. we would like to be on the same team as Vigilante (probably the ruskies...) if possible...

[Razor]

not to worry about uniforms since everyone will be wearing heavy clothing anyway.


Are we still doing camo requirements then? Or just wear whatever but we'll be on our respective teams (tf44, spetz, etc)?

[garyb]

The reason I posted this was if you do not have the right camo outer jacket then what team you signed up for I wouldnt expect people to go out and buy the jacket. I want people to wear warm clothing and if it means different then the team uniforms then so be it. I know that I do not have a Tiger Stripe outer jacket. If you have the uniform color then wear it, if not wear whatever is warm. Use common sense and dress for the weather.

Will we have like colored Armbands to determine whos who?

[Freeze]

I think what Gary is just saying is that if you don't have Black BDU's (for the Russian Commandos) Wear warm black clothing, etc. Wear clothes as close to the color as the teams need. Since he's just looking out for those of us that are skinnier then the big guys that can keep themselves warm lol.

[Crisis]

I'm coming but no idea on what team yet as all i have is woodland, maybe i'll get some new stuff.

[garyb]

again do not worry about clothing just wear something warm.
I will be assigning teams the day of the game if I dont get people to sign up.
So again let me know were you want to go.

[nemesis]

we have 6 from I.C.E going and will all be on the KA

[tmoney]

can take me off list wont be able to make it

[Kramer]

If you can put a maybe next to my name, just got done on the phone and my order wont be shipped untill tuesday of next week, so i might not be getting my supplies that i need before the skirmish. But hopefully it ships quickly, considering its in the same state as i am.

[perculator]

Alrighty, I have 5 people in my car with me, and I believe that Nemisis is bringing another car load of I.C.E. Members so....... However you want to mart that down

[nemesis]

all ICE is KA

[NATHANIELJONESTHUGANGEL]

Won't have G36C by the 18th, and i'll be damned if i'm gonna play another skirm with my crappy springer, so take me off the list...sorry guys.

[nemesis]

WIMP oh well one less guy for us to kill
I am using a springer (ok it is a vsr)
hope you get the gun soon

he has a well m4 springer.

RIOT would like to be on TF44: our ranks include Massacre, Ben, Bobgod(me), Agent P90, and one new guy, augy. SO, all above mentioned would like to be on tf44, all of woodland or marpat, most marpat. *

I bolded the ones you had on the list but did not know which team were supposed to be on, sorry for the slow and late response.

[Vigilante]

So, still uniform requirements or no?

[Crisis]

Crisis and augy are the same guy btw. and I will be on tf44

[Agent J]

Count me in for TF44. Marpat Digital and a P-90.

[crimtonic]

ah, agent J, marpat is the marine gaurd not TF44.

also my buddy john is gonna be TF44, he's got OD. he's woundering if he can wear OD bottems and woodland top, or visa versa.

[garyb]

Once more the uniform isnt going to be that important. As long as it is warm wear it.

[Hanzo]

...gents...

anymore room for two/three wacky airsofters from Chicagoland? my 'battle buddy' and I would like to recon the "Wargame Room", and hopefully play in OP:Rainbow...

let us know where you can throw two hard-charging samurais! ;)

Love to have you there, I will be making the team selections, so if you wouldlike a certain team (KVA) what would be great. If you need directions to the field click on the web site below (wargameroom) and there is a map.
The more players we get the better the raffle prizes get, we are looking at giving away an AEG plus other items.
See you there

[Shinobi]

sweet i'm only like 2 hours away, and if my M4 gets here before the 18th i'll try to get up there

[Hanzo]

*cough* KVA *cough*

sweet! i'll bring in some additional firepower (SAW), just in case we need to play the role of "support" gunners. ;)

[Red Friday]

sweet! i'll bring in some additional firepower (SAW), just in case we need to play the role of "support" gunners. ;)
by all means bring it, we'd love to have you with us.

[Freeze]

Shwa ?! that would be interesting to go up against one of those lol.

[Maus]

Go up against it?? Hell, I just want to see one in person!! It might push me to buy one. :]

[nemesis]

it would be crazy to snipe next to one of those i wouldnt even need a spotter that would be awesome

[BoBgOdS66]

Is it the ASAHI SAW?!

[Agent J]

Event updates:
1) Task Force 44 - I need persons to take on the role of a rescue force made up from various countries...so uniforms will vary from OD BDUs, German Flecktarn, British DPM, US MARPAT, etc.

come on crimtonic, didn't you catch this post? 'Sides, I think we've already got enoguh guards.

[BoBgOdS66]

there is no uniform, gary said dress warm.

[Sanchez]

I am gonna talk to my team and see if we can get a group of 4 to 6 guys to come up but no guarantee ill inform back in a few days ;)

[crimtonic]

come on crimtonic, didn't you catch this post? 'Sides, I think we've already got enoguh guards.

yeah, i read that about a day ago...

and let me get this staight, so there aren't uniform requirnments any more? :cry: cause i liked that. woulda made IFF much easier..

[nemesis]

i do think health is a bit more important than a uniform so i agree with gary

wear what is going to keep you warm... before the game get to know the people who are on your team and then communication will be the key

just dress warm and play safe

[crimtonic]

i agree that warmth is important. though it is easy to put layers under your BDU's thats what i did. on the 4th.

any way, just thought i would double check.

[Zorro]

I may have to show up a little late due to an unexpected conflict. If this is the case, I wouldn't be there until sometime right around 11. I also might be bringing a friend along.

[Agent J]

i agree that warmth is important. though it is easy to put layers under your BDU's thats what i did. on the 4th.

yeah, doing the same.

[Scythe]

Sorry guys as of right now. I can't go unless some plans change. I'll have to come join you at maybe the next game.

[garyb]

Just a final note before the game,
MRE's and hot water to cook them will be available.
Sodas, and snacks will also be there.
Bring a kill flag these are required, if you dont have one you can purchase one for $1.00.
Batteries, BB's and other supplies will be available.
Bring extra socks, and plastic bags large enough to put inside your boots incase they get wet.
If you have the uniform first posted for the team you wanted to play on fine but again the uniform requirement will not be enforced, just dress warm.
Chrony will be available at 830am, game will start at 10am

[perculator]

may sound silly, but look who is posting it. we all should pitch in and build a big freaking snow fort. this is sort of off topic. so it goes without all of you your stupid. Back on topic. I will have 5 people with me. so if you would put them on the team I am on. Thank you that is all

[bikemancs]

sorry, but i'm out... i need christmas money, so i'm earning instead of spending. Look forward to shooting you all later

[blitz]

hey i may attend this. a few q's.
i understand wargameroom is a paintball feild, is there compressed air available for that weekend? my AEG runs w/ compressed air ya know :D

lastly, are there still thick snow on the field ya think?

also i realized that theres uniform requirements. can anyone fill me in? the threads too long to browse thru :D and i dont beleive its on the 1st one.

thanks and looking fwd!

[Downslide]

this SUCKS!

due to circumstances beyond my control, I will be unable to attend. Real life can be a MAJOR pain in the rump.

Stay warm everybody. and try to stay out of the creek!

[Vigilante]

No uniform requirement, if you sign up for a team, you will be on it, if not gary will stick you where need be.

Yes, the snow is still thick. In the heavily trafficked areas, it is packed down but still thick. I would say about 8 inches of snow or so is up there.

Hope to see ya out there.

[BoBgOdS66]

Blitz, your one of the guys from CA.net right? Gary has offered in the past both co2 and hpa. I believe eric ness filled up his hpa tank at the field, but it was a 3500 psi one and gary has a 2500 tank, so the max was 2500. Gary can tell the specifics, but he did have an hpa tank. All you have to do is ask in advance because he doesnt normally bring the tanks to airsoft games as no one needs them normally. Me I have 2 co2 tanks so im usually good for a day, and in the winter I am using an aeg. Look forward to seeing a classic user there!

[blitz]

yes! it is I :D

im still in the middle of clearing my sunday as this game was relayed to me yesterday.... but it looks promising!!!

[Guerilla Dan]

count me out

[Crisis]

looks like I cant make it, my car broke down today, while I was driving it it made a loud bang and now it doesnt start, can't get it fixed cuz i just spent 600 dollars on airsoft, omg.

[darksylence]

meh ... I think Ill hit his up ... its been awhile. Throw me in where the rest of RIOT is.

[Bucket]

me, Iceman, Madhatter, and Valetine are out

[Zorro]

Due to a rediculous last-minute change in plans, I will be almost certainly unable to attend. :(

Have fun, and stay warm!

[BoBgOdS66]

Everyone stop cancelling!

Sorry to hear guys.

[Massacre]

sorry if this has been asked... what are the uniforms (if there are any) for the teams?

[nemesis]

sorry if this has been asked... what are the uniforms (if there are any) for the teams?

just dress warm that is first and foremost then worry about uniforms

[Razor]

If you have the uniform first posted for the team you wanted to play on fine but again the uniform requirement will not be enforced, just dress warm.

Here's Gary's previous answer; don't sacrifice warmth for the uniform.

[Stylin7]

If you are trying to figure out a team, just wait for tomorrow and see where you would be need so that sides don't get uneven. Just my thoughts.

[Freeze]

Well Darks not gonna make it, he injured himself playing football out in the snow lol.

[nemesis]

[Vigilante]

Well, it was a great game. I had a blast, and I am pretty sore now. I hope Hans and Dan had a blast. Looking forward to playing some more. Things worked out great even though some unexpected events happened. Good game all.

[Freeze]

yup fun game, I can't beleive how fast alot of the liquids froze lol

[Agent J]

Fun, but ridiculously cold. I (as well as some others) had equipment problems.\

On another note, thanks to all the people out there; this lost 15 year old was treated well and sympathetically, next time i will try to be better rprepared so as not to impose.

On still another note, who finally won?

[Vigilante]

I think the Kovenistan people lost.

Btw, who exactly were you there?

[blitz]

nicw field you guys got up there!

GAS GUNS LEAD THE WAY!!! :D

btw im not happy w/ the greeting i got 5 mins after entering WI boarder! tell those damn cops to lay off on IL plates :cry:

[perculator]

It was a draw. We took the hotel with in the last 2 minutes. I had a great time. Gary Im have to get ahold of you for my coffee cup. I will send your shipping if you will send it to me. Hey Agent.....Next time keep your hand away from the trigger, then I wont have to give you the "Im going to light you up" look.

[Doc]

Great game, had alot of fun guarding the airport tower in the last half. It was too cold out there.

A huge thank you to who ever put up that heater at the prep area!

[Ben]

COLD!!!!

[BoBgOdS66]

Blitz I saw you as I was leaving, I think, how did the hpa work? How bad did the cold affect your Kokusai? I know HPA doesnt freeze, but the sheer temperature may have hampered the gun a little. My M-14 only lasted for 100 or so shots and about 35 minutes of play time. I forgot handwarmers to put in its large stock and thus it didnt last long. I was just wondering how classics suffer in the cold, even if hpa powered. I have a tt p90 and a muzzelite that I wanna turn into a decent gun, but right now I just have 2 co2 bottles. Sorry I didn't say hello.

[Hanzo]

folks... thanks for having us, Sparrows, to one of your games. you gents are top-notch sons-of-airsoft!!! the caliber of players are to be commended! i'm quite impressed by the tactics that were deployed from both sides of the fence. my hat's off to everyone who braved the cold and kept on taking down tangos.

'looking forward to trading BBs with you fine gentlemen again...

Hanzo, out!

[youth in asia]

yea. thanx again gary, ur field is awesome. BTW- i have an issue i would like to share w/ u guys, but i dont wanna start a war.... i just want some input:

i noticed a lot during this game that people would assume someone was out. i was yelled at several times that i was out, and i could swear that the bbs werent even close to me (b/c i could see them). most of the time, i just called myself out to avoid confrontation, but i just wanna know what u guys do in this situation. i know that a lot of times it looks like MY bbs are hitting people, but i trust everyone to not cheat, and if they dont call themselves out, im just like "whatever, ill get u next time ;) ". please dont turn this into a flame war :cry: , i just want some input!!!

[Vigilante]

Yea, I dont go by what I see, I go by what I feel. Even at 200 feet you can still feel them, if you are not sure, just call yourself out. I did that alot when I first started, I still do, cuz an honorable player is better than some indestructible transformer.


Optimus....Maximise.....

[Kramer]

Sorry i couldnt make it, my equipment never came in. IT should be in later this week.

[NATHANIELJONESTHUGANGEL]

It's really nice to see some IL guys like Blitz, Hanzo, and Azrael (and maybe even more?) registering on our boards and coming to some of our games, it's great to see the CAA and WAA bonding more!

[nemesis]

had a great time, was a bit cold and the batteries froze once or twice(per gun) but that is ok

was fun having sparrow play with our guys thanks for comming up and give me a call anytime hanzo

thanks gary for the field and game... definitly was no paintsoft game and i really had alot of fun hope to see every one soon

[blitz]

bob,
gas gun worked well.... just like summer ;) had a couple of nice kills on it.

gruzniak third FIB was ding not azreal

[Kennedy]

All I can say about the final hour is that every minute of the day lead up to such an epic conflict as to never be forgotten. Even with batteries failing, lungs dried from the cold air, people unable to feel their feet and hands, and water freezing in their camelbacks. The one thing that only got hotter was the action.

[Hanzo]

yea. thanx again gary, ur field is awesome. BTW- i have an issue i would like to share w/ u guys, but i dont wanna start a war.... i just want some input:

don't call yourself out because you just want to avoid confrontation. call yourself out because you believe (or at least give the benefit of the doubt), that the other player is/might be telling the truth. this is the point when everything else fails (visual confirmation and all), your only compass is/are the people around you (whether foe or friend).

the gear that we all were wearing yesterday, plus the adrenalin we all were pumping were enough to put "doubt" ahead of "honor." the entire team from both sides probably experienced what you described above, too.

i might have lost some good 10lbs. just running back to homebase (not good for my 35yr old knees :D ) or trying to find the medic everytime some yells to me "...hey... you're hit.." LOL

don't fret... just call/get healed by the medic or go back quickly to home base, re-spawn and re-join the fight. just like what you said, you (we) will get them the next time around ;)

[garyb]

Great Game everyone.
Morning skirmish went to the US-allies, the afternoon was a draw.
Total number of players was 38.

[ChavezDing]

Hi guys,

Thanks again for having the Sparrows up there. Like Hanzo said, your tactical skills were impressive! Great field! Great bunch of guys to trade BBs with.

Looking forward to future events with all of you.

You all have a Great Merry Christmas and an Airsoft Kick A** New Year!

Someone doesn't play Rainbow Six! :o

[Vigilante]

I don't play Rainbow Six. I only play CS, and some others.....

[LFM]

It was my first time out to a real game and i really enjoyed it. It was cold yes but honestly i didn't realize it. everybody is just great out there, and i hope the months come so much quicker. I.C.E. is gonna train this winter so i think we might not be there in jan. but we will see. I have to say working with sparrow unit with the rest of my crew was really a good time and i hope for more good times to come.
