The RATS have been talking about heading up again soon, will let you know.

BTW, this thread should really be in the events area, perhaps Mods could move it?

Sorry to disappoint mate but every RAT will have a camera with instructions to point them at you at every opportunity, we don't want to miss a single Fozzyism! :eek:

elDiablo79

really looking forward to this. never up there before. wat is the limit for AEGs is it the same as the republic 328fps? id say the pyros are good crack. do they give a safety briefing on the pyros before use?

Airsofter101

Yea its the same law as here!!!

Not really... All you have to do is take the cap off ignite like a match stick, trough and run like F**K

Yes its 328fps only. Yes the pyro are great craic. And yes, we will teach you how to use them safely.

Pyro will only be sold to persons over 18 btw.

Also just to throw a curveball out there....the day is better if you guys get there early. By early I mean 9.30. If everyone is ready to fight at 10....the day will run much smoother. I know it will cut into beauty sleep and drinking time the night before....but its well worth it in the end.

Decoy

I sent Miceal an email to let him know the RATS were on their way, he's going to put the word out so we can expect a good turnout.

For anyone who hasn't played Predator before it's a great site and well worth making the trip. Although the RATS are making the trip as a team, all are welcome to play, last time out we had Fudds, Red Storm Troopers + others and it was a great day.

The site can be a bit tricky to find. If you have SatNav that can use UK postcodes you shouldn't have any problems, if you don't I suggest you team up with someone who has been there before or has SatNav. From what I've seen the two ways to get there are to exit the N1/M1 to Newry and down the A25 or exit the N1/M1/A1 at Dromore then head cross country. However you plan to get there please try to get there early, as Pep_C says the earlier we get there the earlier we can start, and with daylight fading earlier every day we need to get out on the field of play fast!

what time would you recomend leaving dublin at??

Decoy

If I've got to be there for 9:30 I will be hitting the M1 @ Swords/Airport by 7:30, but that's just me, I don't like being late. The drive as far as Newry (or Dromore) is handy but the cross-country bit after that is far from handy, especially for those who haven't been up to Predator before.

eadyzrx

I would'nt mind going if you all dont mind, will see if any of my lot (alphadogs) will go but if not Id still head up. Oh room for 1 or 2 if any need a lift

PEP_C

I leave at 7am to be there at 9am. That gives me an hour to sort myself out, eat some breakfast and get ready to play. Last time the RATS were up...the late arrivals missed the 1st 30 minute game in the village.

Most of us did not get back into the village for the rest of the day due to its location, but the result of that particular game can be seen on Fruoddy's video site.

Hopefully it will be the same game type again....battlefield in the morning with shorter games in the afternoon when people are starting to get tired, but it depends on the numbers, if there is 100+ it will be mostly a battlefield, with sub missions in the afternoon, whilst the battle rages on.

And for the love of god, bring thick gloves....lots of gorse on the site.

And this time of year, flecktarn works best.

feck that fozzy,multicam!!ftw:p

The more, the merrier. Can't guarantee you'll end up on the same side as us but that doesn't matter. It really is a great site, that's why we're going back up!

Rex Fox its in case The PSNI Stop You, The Letter & Rule's N Reg's from the Site Owner, stating that your travelling to their Site on That Day to Play:D

Ratsquad

ok what about 7am mcdonalds blanch carpark. and 7:20 coachmans in n carpark on old swords rd?
mark??

Betty Blue

7am!! / 7.30am!!;)

Decoy

I would be inclined to say leaving the Coachman's Inn @ 7:30am. You can never be sure what the weather will be like getting near the end of November AND you may have extra traffic heading up with husbands/families being dragged up there by uncaring WAGs to do the Xmas shopping. If Fozzie says it's a 2 hour drive then that's the best advice we can get as he makes this journey all the time.

Setting off @ 7pm the previous evening is certainly enthusiastic and will definitely get you there on time but it's probably not a good idea unless you plan to bivouac in the car park

Ratsquad

jaysus nothing gets past you does it....OCD .???

OK LEAVING @7:30 WAS JUST GIVING THE BLANCH CREW time TO GET TO US AT THE COACHMANS .IS THAT ENOUGH TIME FOR HOOK UP.?

Should be, depends how many hungry souls need a MacBrekkie before hitting the road and if I remember correctly MacDs didn't open too early last time we were there, make sure no one hangs around just to get brekkie!

Actually now that I think about it would it make sense to have two convoys, one leaving from Blanch and the other from Swords? Smaller groups are easier to keep together on the road.

Ratsquad

was hoping that someone in the convoy would actually know where they are going.:rolleyes:
they will have to pass the that coachmans general direction anyway.

Airsofter101

Lads dont want to be sounding scabby but has any one got a lift from Blanch???
