And if any one, that needs help to draw a map, there was one in the last issue of take aim, but please ask them, before you go copying it.

Paul,
Take Aim have kindly agreed to let us use the site map from the last issue. I have scanned it and was going to put it up here so everyone can download it but just want to check that it's ok with you? I know some extra stuff has gone onto the site lately but it would be a good starting point to work from. Let me know if it's cool with you and I'll post it up.

"semi auto in buildings"

Does that mean we are playing without bang kills?

I'd prefer that, except in extreme muzzle to face situations.



Also, if a medic is hit, he cant heal himself, can another player asume medic role, or do we wait 10 minutes for a new medic?

No need for bang kills and we always discourage shooting in the face so common sense prevails here.

AFAIK no. You have to wait for respawn. And I think it'll actually be 20 minutes you have to wait. Bleed out and respawn time...

Thanks,

Sorry to drag up an issue that's been brought up more times than kebabs on a saturday night, but...

I know the mag limit is 10 mid or lowcaps. I have both - one combination gives me over 1000 rds the other gives me 300. I will be playing with 300 but wonder what others are doing...

Personally, I dont mind firing 300 rounds before I am kia - no good to me when I'm gone...
but if I go with a few spare mags, can I donate it to a team-mate while I regen? Just wondering...

No problem Paul, I'll command one team. I'd like to set up the missile site at, or near, the killhouse at the edge of the oil drum area if thats a valid location?

Ammunition:

All magazines will be restricted to realistic loads.
So what this means is, what ever the real magazine would hold, in the real world, is what you put in your airsoft magazine's on the day.

Each player may carry a maximum of 10 standard magazines (Full battle loadout).
Pistols +2 mags maximum. Rifle drum mags 3 maximum. Machine gun box mags 2 maximum.
Sniper rifles 8 mags maximum.

At exactly 2.00 on the video the building on the right of the shot. Anywhere near that is fine.

See attached two versions of the HRTA site map from the last issue of Take Aim. There have been some additional cabins added to the site since this was drawn up but it should give a good basis for the game on Sunday. Just print it out and take it with you to the game.
Have to say a big thanks to Take Aim who have very kindly given us permission to use the map. By the way, I told them they should come down and bring a photographer with them so make sure you're sporting your best Gucci on the day...:cool:

Before I go making out my designation map Paul, do you have a grid reference system worked out already? No point me making a gridded map when your co-ords are different to mine (classic, real-deal fire support f*** up though).

When calling in fast air, do we simply call in a co-ord or should we pop smoke to mark the target?

Have we a set radio code system for calling in the the close air support such as grid reference -> landmark -> position, or do we just call in the grid reference as per whatever system you have. Also, can we call it in as delayed fire-for-effect or do we just call it as we need it. In other words, can I call in a position and say I want rounds on the ground in 5 minutes at that location or do I just wait for the 5 minutes and call them in as an immediate effect.

Paul, I frigged my back during the week so I won't be taking an active part in this:mad:

I will, however, be at the site and will be willing to lend a hand where-ever needed.

Masada

Air support will only be available at certain times. This will be weather- and marshal-dependent. Within a time window, you can either specify immediate or timed delivery. If the target is close to your own positions, you may be asked to mark it.

See [previous post for] two versions of the HRTA site map from the last issue of Take Aim.

That blueprint is not to scale, but to orient it take a line from point 10 to point 12. That's the approximate direction of North.

The straightest line on the site is the treeline/ditch behind the former Ghost Base (12) which runs EastSouthEast back towards the access road at approx 110 degrees. The distance perpendicular from that treeline SouthSouthWest to the turn of the lane (inner ditch) is approximately 130 metres.

I'm sure someone will be along shortly with a proper grid reference.

Tommyboy71

To hell with you Richie. I have never backed (pardon the pun) down from a challenge. I will be there and I will take part. So there:P

After the game, I will limp off for a good cry.

Dread-Lock

Well a lot of things have gone to hell for me this weekend. So I'm not gonna make this. I was really looking forward to it, but hopefully Hive's weekday games will start up soon and I can get my MilSim on.

Masada

Jeez, your not even on our team and your bailing already.,

I'm all geared up for this, gonna bring someone with me aswell.

Just checked with Met Eireann there and,

Bright or sunny periods and widespread showers tomorrow giving further falls of snow in places, with a continuing risk of thunder. Very cold and windy. Temperatures only reaching 4 to 7 degrees in the strong, blustery westerly winds

So wrap up warm and bring wets just incase lads, knowing the Irish forecasters though, it'll probably be 20degree's in the sun with risk of sunburn in places...
