Puding

ian is very good with the order of battle, for this even for the red star the irish are keeped in the same platoon, i would imagine it is the same with the other factions, ian will normaly try his best to get you together with the people who you would like to play with

You can reload at the FOB after you die afair, so if you want to carry 6k rounds, die 10 times.

i don't know if that is a miss type but you would still only ever carry 600 rd at one time, you may have carried 6000rds over the course of the game but not in one go

deepimpact

Reloads are allowed at regen/HQ (which I assumed was the FOB).

From the TA-Event rules:
•You can reload at regen or return back to HQ at any time to reload again.
•All roles may only carry a combination of 8 fragmentation grenades / smoke grenades at any one time!
•There are no restrictions on the number of magazines you may carry.
•If you have a weapon where lo-caps are unavailable, let us know. In general, we will ask you to block and/or mark your magazines and load no more than the limits above.

I may be completely misreading it when it's 600 per day or for the whole event, but I'm open to correction.

<edit> hang on a sec, I see where I went wrong. 600 rounds is the maximum allowance per life.

Puding

never said you could not reload your post kinda implied that you could increase the bb you carried at any time above the limit of 600 round for anyone playing the rifleman role ( as this seems to be the example where using, but the same would of course apply to all roles)

you can reload back up to your limit for what ever role your playing e.g rifleman 600rd, but you can not exceed the original 600 for the rifleman in this example

example 1: go out use 300 rounds and go back to your FOB you can replace the used 300 rounds

example 2: go out used 500 and die, go back to respawn and you can replace the 500 bb you have used in that life

You can not for example go out with your 600 rounds used 300 return to your FOB and reload with another 600 making 900 in total as this would be over the limit of 600 at any some time for the rifleman role.

we may have some crossed wires but i hope that helps

G.I Joseph

Are trip wires and booby traps etc. allowed?

deepimpact

Wow, we've got some seriously crossed wires here. You're right, and I clarified my post in the edit section.

600 per life max.

Puding

no problem, i just know there has already been some confusion over the rules, better to clear it up that others get the wrong idea

fleecymanager

i was only mess'in about the 6000 rounds:o.....any one willing to give me a lift,im housed trained, have all my own teeth and will of course pay my way

Danin

I think you will have a few more enemy and objectives to worry about other than us marines - that said; bring it on... ;)

Skatedude

So, the fps limits for TA are 350fps for aeg and 500fps for sniper,Obviously you will have to wait till you get there before modifying your aeg etc.

so whats the fps limits for ta?Obviously you will have to wait till you get there before modifying your aeg etc.

fps limits are fully explained within the rules

Weapon Velocity (FPS)
350fps: AEG's, Shotguns & Pistols
500fps: Semi-Auto Sniper Rifles
minimum engagement range of 25 metres

For all weapons and ranges, head shots should be avoided as far as possible except where no other target is available.
Gun chroning

* Weapons will be randomly chronographed and tagged during the event.

Sniper rifles

* Only sniper type rifles with scopes are allowed.

http://www.ta-events.co.uk/rules/#fps

advise everyone to read them

upgrading for the extra 20fps on an aeg is tbh not needed it was discussed in another thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055866994 upgrading a sniper is another matter but that is mo0re than throwing in a height fps to be reliable and consistent

G.I Joseph

As regards to minors wearing full face protection does that mean a full mask or can you have goggles and a half mask.
And would neoprene suffice?

Puding

might need to be a bit more solid than neoprene but you will need to check by dropping ian a mp or ask over at the Q&A section of the forum, ians wife is due a child around this time so ian might be slow in replying over the next few days

G.I Joseph

Ye ill try the forums then thanks.

fleecymanager

it looks like there is a lot of cqb type terrain in senny would a full face mask be recomended ? also do many players sleep during the game or do most play on non stop...cheers fleecy

G.I Joseph

Well when I was checkin some past vids on youtube and stuff People had tents set up in buildings and people were just lying around so I guess you can. As regards to the mask I'm more worried about gettin hit by a 500fps sniper!

Puding

some form of face protection is advisable had a few near calls on the last trip and do not fancy the dentist bills myself

it is best to get some downtime during the event how ever you can either in or out of game at some point, normally guys sort something out amongst there squad depend on what your doing, made the mistake of not rotating and having downtime and just crashed out myself in the end and tbh took a little away from the weekend

its not that bad due to the min engagement range and distance they will be shooting over , its more the auto from outside the building in that can catch you
