    the site map, will it be taken from an OS map, or something like the maps that TA events produce?

    Without having seen a TA Events map, I'd have to say the map will be more like an OS one. It's a large, mostly rural site, unlike the more urban ones TA run.

    Hey Sliabh,

    Just wondering are there any spaces left on the PMCs?? a friend of mine decided to join late and couldnt click PMCs as his primary choice but could as alternative. Liam Cooney is his name.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi, I am afraid the unit is full (it was the first to fill up) so it's not possible to join it anymore. Sorry about that.

    The ARM Cartel is now full. Still space in the other factions, Patriota Defenders, or Republicano attackers.

    We will be posting more detailed mission specs, maps and orders for each faction this evening to the game forums this evening. This is faction specific information and will make your life easier to know.

    If you haven't registered for the closed faction forums over at forum.milsimdublin.net/index.php I'd do so now. When you have PM me (sliabh) with your booking reference and I will give you access to the closed forum for your faction.

    We are ending the early booking discount on Sunday. So book and pay in full before midnight to get the €50 price!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,011 ✭✭✭sliabh


    The state of play now with bookings and unit availability is:
    Patriotas
    • GdA: Full
    • Heavies: Full
    • PMCs: Full

    Republicanos
    • Hunters: Full
    • 25th Light Infantry: Available.
    • 38th Special Weapons Group: Available

    Astroga Non-aligned
    • ARM Cartel: Full

    So we can only take bookings now for the 2 remaining Republicano units. If we get a rush of bookings later we will see about adding an extra 5-10 tickets to each of the two main factions.

    The way we are looking at the moment I don't see us taking any more bookings for the Heavies. The unit is already bigger than we had planned. For whatever reason it does seem to have been the most popular one this year.

    ahh. well if there room for one more it would be greatly appreciated ( or dropouts )
    all the best

    Sorry. I don't think it will be possible.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,132 ✭✭✭Stonewolf


    It is unlikely any new spaces will open up in the Patriotas even in the case of dropouts.

    Why not just sign up on the Republicanos? Surely you're a free and independent person who doesn't need friends to dictate how he/she enjoys his/her hobby?

    There is room in 2 units on the Republicano side:
    • Presidential 25th Light Infantry - backbone of the Republicanos and spearhead of their advance. Move fast strike hard, they are well supported with vehicles and heavy weapons. Speaking of which...
    • 38th Engineers - Special Weapons Group - anti-armour, bomb disposal, mining, demolitions, you name it, they specialise in it.

    A support gun is not a problem, provided you stick to the 1500 bb limit.
