    Hi All, and Bren.....
    After spending a whole load of money and playing 2 games, a weds evening and a sunday i have decided to do this.

    I have a all GI style gear, but im not sure about my guns???
    Have an m4, mp5 and an M9.
    I dont mind which team im on but if I could be on Jays team i may get shot less.....at the moment im a clay pigeon!

    I have read some of the whats needed to survive a night game and i think i have it all.

    So here is my list anything i have left out or advice would be nice.

    BEER, the most important liquid there is.
    Water, the second most important liquid there is (apart from KY jelly which is water based but essential when a pornstar)
    Food, snacks, eats, munchies and bingo bars(i live to bingo)
    10,000 bbs.....That enough?
    all the guns above.
    Two gass cans.
    Two M4 batteries and one mp5 batt.(Trying to get another, the charger will come too.)
    $$$$$$$$$ some of that.
    Googles and mesh (choices choices)
    Sleeping bag, tent, ground mat and a pillow(snowy my teddy bear...touch him and ill point blank you!)
    Spare socks and jocks(if you did get hit by a bus with clean underwear would they stay clean???)
    Drinking clothes and smoking jacket!:D

    As regaurds mags, i expect midcaps are the viable quiet option i dont have any for the M4 and only have 2 for the mp5.
    will i be rattling all night long?
    I have one 240rd mag and two 100rd for the mp5.
    I have three hi caps for the m4 and 1mag for the M9 will this be enough?or should i lug some bbs out on the field too?

    I also have some over kill.....some of you have met Betsie, but all of you will meet her.

    Have an m4, mp5 and an M9. M4 will do fine!

    BEER, the most important liquid there is. For after the game
    Water, the second most important liquid there is (apart from KY jelly which is water based but essential when a pornstar*) See Pete!
    Food, snacks, eats, munchies and bingo bars(i live to bingo)
    10,000 bbs.....That enough? Overkill comes to mind here, you'd be lucky to use 10% of that!
    all the guns above.
    Two gass cans.
    Two M4 batteries and one mp5 batt.(Trying to get another, the charger will come too.) Fine
    $$$$$$$$$ some of that. Yep you'll need some of that.
    Googles and mesh (choices choices) How wise you are Grasshopper!
    Sleeping bag, tent, ground mat and a pillow(snowy my teddy bear...touch him and ill point blank you!) Jay might want a go of snowy first if not... I'm sure one of the other lads will try him out
    Spare socks and jocks(if you did get hit by a bus with clean underwear would they stay clean???) There might be a few skid marks.:p
    Drinking clothes and smoking jacket!

    As regaurds mags, i expect midcaps are the viable quiet option i dont have any for the M4 and only have 2 for the mp5.
    will i be rattling all night long? Just move with stealth young grasshopper!
    I have one 240rd mag and two 100rd for the mp5.
    I have three hi caps for the m4 and 1mag for the M9 will this be enough?or should i lug some bbs out on the field too? No bb's on the battle zone as this is sure to get you hit, time and time again.

    I also have some over kill.....some of you have met Betsie, but all of you will meet her. I'm sure we'll cross paths at some stage!

    What AEG do you have Seamus?
    All we ask is that you make some sort of effort, but as it's night time it won't really matter. We don't expect everyone to have all the gear, as we are all about the atmosphere and game play experience that you will get!

    We will be charging 25euro if you only want to come and play for the night ops, and 45euro if you want to play the night game and the following day!

    Bren

    I have a hk416, thats as close to an m16 as i can get, the rest of my gear is modern. My mate might be coming, he has an m4, Is this ok? Its not an issue if it isn't.

    Edit: Whats the story with food?


    What time does it finish at on Sunday?

    Yeah that won't be a problem, the night game will finish at about 3 or 4am
    and then start back up at 10:30am.
    Food: bring you own for the night game, there is also a chipper and a Chinese just out side the site, we can get you breakfast and lunch if needed.


    Looking forward to seeing you there!

    wow, my first night game, it was brilliant, your mind really starts playing tricks on you out there when your sneaking about, there was some pretty intense moments especially the first v.c attack on our firebase, it was really close quarters,

    thanks to my GI team mates who helped bring democracy to ho chi meath province :D
    and to all those sneaky - evil - fishhead eating - little vc who were great opponents!! ;)

    the "deer hunter" finale was one of the most entertaining things i have ever seen in airsoft, thanks to the lads for organising a great event,

    My first ever skirmish and night game and i have to say it was brilliant.
    Cant believe my battery got bust up but it happened close to the end so it was'nt too bad. :p
    Welll done to everyone who organised the event.Cant wait for my next visit to fingal.
    btw. Russain roullette = good times :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,984 ✭✭✭FingalAirsoft


    Right where do I start?
    What a game that was lads.... holy crap that was much more intense than any night game I've been in:eek: that first attack of the night by the VC on the GI fire base was mayhem...smoke filled bb flying mayhem:eek::eek::D
    The GI's pushed the VC back down to U-Ming, but then straight away the VC launched another attack on the fire base and after a 60 minute firefight the VC gained control and had taken pow's including a high ranking officer!
    The prisioners where then whisked away down the secret trail to the POW camp deep within the U-Ming forest for interrorgation and then executed:eek:!
    Contact ensued all over the U-ming for countless hours.
    The GI's then setup multilple LZ's and luanched a counter attack on the firebase with great success, pinning the VC down ontop of 6mill hill!

    To be continued.....


    Thanks to everybody who attended and made this event the epic night that it was;););) Mou, Mou....de de mou...GI!!:p:p


    Regards,
    Bren

    Capture was horrible, the smell of slowly cooking noodles will bring back terrible memories forever:D:D you know what i'm talkin about bren!!!!

    Well f**k me that was the best weekend ever:eek::eek: Operation:Watchtower was absolutely insane,
    i've never seen such intense firefights ever:eek:.....it was madness!!
    Through the smoke filled battle zones and the hail of BB's
    the brave G.I.'s fought with pride and determination against the
    never ending onslaught of the V.C.'s......
    from avoiding their sneaky lil trip mines to get to our weapons drop:mad:,
    to flanking and pinning them down in 6mill hill:D:D

    All in all a very well organised and extremely well executed night mission........
    Just cant wait for the next one:D
