That saracen looks class

Spitfire666

the set comes with the a balaklava, face mask and goggles. the goggles are wider then normal ones so that they fit over the face mask. i dont now how well they would fit without the mask on. might leave some gaps.

Masada

Hope it dont rain too much later on since i dont have my water proof boots handy.,

Spitfire666

Lo lads ! New to the whole Airsoft scene, had my first game a couple of weeks ago, i'm looking to make it down on Saturday with a mate of mine, but unfortunaltly there isn't enough room in his car for 3 people (he's bringing someone also). Would there be anyone making their way down that could make a stop in Ballymun ? It'd be greatly appreciated.

PM me for mobile muber etc.

Cheers !

Site-Ops

Yeah baby..... I can see the Recon bus take on the Saracen in a game of airsoft chicken ! Bring it on....... :cool:

Mr Benevolent

I'll be there again on Saturday afternoon, hopefully not so brightly coloured this time.

Is anyone bringing a JG G36C or K? I likes the look of that puppy and might ask for a quick burst. RSOV has one for a very reasonable wodge of sweaty cash.

daire sweeney

i will be there with my one, give me a shout if ya see me

nonex

the numbers coming tomorrow so far is 38, i hope the rain keeps off for the day.

The C should be under the limit but I dunno about the K, ask keith to check first.

I can assure you that it would be a 1 in 1million event if there wasnt a JG 36C there, they are the most common airsoft gun you will see, just ask Tony at Eirsoft.

I'm hoping to drop out as well, though perhaps just for a half day. So you can make that 38.4. I'm the 0.4.

Would it not be .5 instead of .4 ? :pac:

Great games today lads ! Pity about the rolling assault dragging on, and on and on..

Kentar

and on and on and on

Wasn't to bad

Hivemind187

In fairness it's quite tricky to balance a rolling assault properly and a combination of factors casued the drag effect. Mostly the torrential downpours every time a game was started (and the corresponding effect this has on eye wear) but also the number of people on either side. Too many and it becomes a meat grinder for any approaching 'softer which can really put people off the death-charge attack.

Other than that it was a grand day and I'm glad to say their was a minimum of reasons to bellow and get stompy :rolleyes:

daire sweeney

nonex

so is there any teams interested in milsim game on the 4th of august bank holiday monday.
these games can be as hard or soft as you want.

here are two game scenarios i have so far,


Two sides= 1/7th and 2/7th Cavalry air mobile
Peoples army of Vietnam

US Objectives : Establish and hold LZ X-ray
Maintain LZ for chopper traffic( aka ) post van.
Move the enemy into and destroy their foothold on La Drang Valley
Reclaim any cut off US platoons

PAVN Objectives: Hold base of Operations (at town)
Disrupt chopper traffic at American LZ
Destroy all American units in La Drang Valley

US notes: US has ability to drop fresh supplies and evacuate troop via choppers Respawn is once every ten minutes
US has ability to utilize air support and accurate artillery using grid locations on maps and radio transmission to HQ

PAVN notes: Superior force to US respawn every 5 minutes No air support option

Special Roles Radio operator designated X4 for US for each platoon of Cav
and each platoon of PAVN
Each side gets a engineer for explosives
US has a forward Scout Platoon
PAVN has individual look outs ahead of army

Disadvantages for US slow respawn and one mission objective to reclaim a detached cav unit outside LZ Xray in enemy territory before they get wiped out
IF LZ is occupied by enemy commander has to set up a new LZ
US must make use of medics on all platoons

Disadvantage for PAVN No air support

US special advantage: If unit is in danger of being over run US commander can use the key word "Broken Arrow" to bomb entire perimeter of LZ at one time, this can only be used once

PAVN Speciial Advantage: Army does not need medics just go respawn
This army may make use of Mortar fire by grid location on map
Point ratios: Kill Commander 100 pts
Kill Radio Operator 50 pts.
Kill Medics 20 pts.
LZ control for duration 200 Pts.
US reclaims lost platoon from enemy control 150 pts.
Either side captures commander alive 200 pts.

Winner of game is who ever has control of LZ X-Ray at the end of the day
Control of LZ is designated by a US fag or red (Vietnam) flag posted in the center of LZ.





Columbians in the mist.

Story so far:
The US marines have sent in an elite force of soldiers to clean up an area for a marine drop. Unfortunately the Marines found themselves outnumbered by Columbian rebels in the area, they retreated to an abandoned village where they set up a perimeter on a cliff. Occupying multiple buildings along the cliff edge the Marines could hold off indefinitely. But being short on supplies and ammo they asked for a cargo drop which was blown of course to the north of their camp. Surrounded by all sides by rebels they need to get to the supplies in a hurry. There are also rumors of a hidden rebel weapons cache in the forest.

Teams:
US marines: Wears visible blue bandanas. About 65% of players at the game.
Columbia rebels: Wears visible red bandanas. About 35% of the players at the game.
(see special rules for more detail and rule bending)

Objectives:
-Marines: They must first of all get to the cargo drop and bring it back to their strong point. They must hold off the rebels for some time depending on the number of players and map largeness(players decide). They must also capture the weapons cache and capture a maximum of flags to their base (flags are located at cargo and cache).
-Rebels: They must find and defend their weapons cache. The rebels must also wipe out the Marines before time runs out. They must also try to capture the Marines cargo drop and capture a maximum of flags (flags are located at cargo and cache).
-Each team must also defend all the flags and bases they have at all times.

Objective points:
Marines:
Get cargo hold flag to village base=1pt.
Hold off the rebels until time runs out=5pts.
Capture, defend and use as base/spawn point weapons cache flag =3pts.
Rebels:
Get cargo hold flag back to rebel base .=1pt.
Capture, defend and use weapons cache flag as base/spawn point .=3pts.
Wipe out Marines. =5pts.
Count points at the end of the game to decide who wins.
No points are given when defending a flag.

Rules:
-There are 2 flags in the game, one at the weapons cache (capturable not movable) and one at the marine cargo drop (movable to main base by team only).
-The rebels have unlimited spawns when the marines have none. NOTE: This rule may be bent but then you need a fair 50% vs 50% fair match.
-(optional) Try having people with M4/MP5/M16 on one sides (Marines) and the people with AK/G3 and etc on another for realistic purposes.
-The cargo drop flag once captured cannot be used a spawn base.
-Main bases cannot be captured.

Bases:
There are a total of 3 bases in the game, Marines village, Rebel base, and a capturable weapons cache that can be used as a base once captured.
