You weren't there man, you werent there

Firekitten · 30-09-2009 3:10pm

I heard all about your 'boiz' only 'noiz' in the hotel... sounded pretty frisky by all accounts.

I'm coming. The chance to get a tan, and hand out 8mm judgement is far too good to resist. Pity it isnt more milsim though. I didnt like the off at 3 - 9 thing last year I heard about. Night fighting is where its at

mcshape · 30-09-2009 4:14pm

Deffo going this year, Already cleared with the wife (and thats 90% of the battle!!!)

senordingdong · 30-09-2009 4:22pm

Can't believe it's time already.

But ****in hell yeah I'm goin!

gerrowadat · 30-09-2009 4:52pm

I'm so there I'm not ever here. Especially after watching the video.

gungun · 30-09-2009 4:59pm

Well considering it was far enough north that it never got dark, there was no night fighting.
Also, the 3-9 was only in bases, most nights, we didn't get back until sometime between 6-8 in the morning. Trust me, when the game lasts for 3 and a half days, you appreciate the little bit of down time that there is.

BioHazRd · 30-09-2009 6:22pm

Can anyone explain to me what uniform that is that you can see at 2:24 behind the wall ??:eek: - you only get to see the bottom half

senordingdong · 30-09-2009 6:37pm

Just looks like plain tan fatigues.

No camo patten like.

plastic_axe · 30-09-2009 7:00pm

he means the wan in the skirt, a barmaid no doubt.

OzCam · 30-09-2009 8:19pm

I'm going to wait to see the rules and scenario before deciding.

I was not impressed that the game was rigged and manipulated so that NATO were guaranteed to lose however they played. And that still applies even if I end up playing for another faction. Whether Ian can go next year will be a factor, as will the location.

I think that we should still all travel together, even if we're going to play for different teams. That part worked out very well.

I believe (although I stand open to correction) that may have been one of the bar maid/casino dealer/prostitute/whatever-else-they-had-them-playing civilian players. Basically, they needed towns folk for Bashir city.

Mm, we shall see... Im up for a 3 day none stop frankly, getting a hour or two when I can under cover, stagging on when needed, much more fun, and will make me apreciate the hotel after all the more... (Mmmmm spa....)

Nope... 8mm

Did I mention that I had an 8mm M95? (shes getting upgraded to 3j for sweden... I cant wait to hear the screams of terror.

OzCam · 30-09-2009 9:55pm

Nice to see we got the Tricolour in there...

Stone.cold · 30-09-2009 9:58pm

I think i can see what next yrs vacation is going to be

More than once infact.

With the creases of the first time out of the way, I think next year will be smashing.

TheDoc · 01-10-2009 12:14am

Watched the video, I'm so in again.

And Oz, didnt we win the game, being the only team left alive since the rest got nuked?

I'm pretty sure we won, cause I dont lose...

Considering we failed to protect Bashir city, evacuate its inhabitants, or get some of our own forces out fo the vicinity, I believe that would be considered a phiric victory at best.

TBH, I can't be arsed with who won and who didn't 'cause at the end of the day it doesn't matter. I had fun, and I hope other people had fun as well and can't ask for more than that.

Firekitten · 01-10-2009 12:30am

To be honest... going into games with that attitude doesnt really help much...
at the end of the day, Its not about winning, we dont buy all the things we do to win, or people would go for 'the best' or the 'most efficient. This game is about what you want it to be, and id not go to an event like Berget with the desire to win so vital to me...

Im looking forwards to a good time, making friends, sharing stories, and the usual airsoft event frivolity... (oh and the cheep vodka)

deco nate · 01-10-2009 12:47am

cheap vodka?over there,no way fk,bring it with you duty free,only way to go really:)

Firekitten · 01-10-2009 12:56am

Who said I was buying it in Sweden?

:P I Have many friends in the Soviet Airsoft scene... most are scandanavian/Russian... the GOOD stuff is cheap

IF you know where to look.

elDiablo79 · 01-10-2009 3:57am

that video looked bleedin deadly. anyone any idea how much a trip like that costs? id love to head out to that with a few mates.:)

Stonewolf · 01-10-2009 5:55am

If I have a job next year (which itself assumes the country doesn't completely melt down) I'll most likely go as it looks deadly.

TheDoc · 01-10-2009 10:42am

Mis-interpratation much, did I forget to put a smiley in my post?

Granted the fact I wasnt ordered at any point to move my section into Bashir city and we were one of the more troublesome platoons I found it wishy washy to just nuke the city. I felt we should have isnerted and tried to extract civilians.

Anyway hopefully something different for me next year, I'd be happy enough to just go and larp the week away, I wasnt going there for gunfights haha, I was there for the lols and everything other then shooting a gun.

senordingdong · 01-10-2009 10:50am

Our base was nuked too Doc.

Berget 8 site to be launched tonight at 20:00.

Is anyone else drippin like a George Forman?

I thought we were outside of the blast radius, o well

Looks like there isnt a NATO side this year.

gerrowadat · 01-10-2009 7:57pm

Good team choices for me seem to be:

- Poldavian Psyops, sneakiness, something new. Looks fun for a change.
- NAF 5th/23rd Infantry, lots of defending, fortifications, arty, on the front lines, plenty of brappage.
- NAF 3rd Ranger - more hardcore defnce. Ammo limits. No offgame. More proper milslim.

Cheeky monkey · 01-10-2009 8:56pm

Hmm not sure if I'm going again this year but tbh I'm tempted by the civlians/bandits/mercs or caputered civilians I like the larp idea and wanna give it a shot

OzCam · 01-10-2009 9:39pm

Hmmm. This requires careful consideration.

I had a look at the Vasternorrland area. Most of it is at 200m and it ain't flat.

At least there's a good choice of roles this time. I guess we'll probably split up a bit more than last time, but at least we should still have sections together.

Phractal · 01-10-2009 10:23pm

If the leavin cert dont stand in me way Ill be there for the hell of it

TheDoc · 01-10-2009 11:24pm

- NAF 5th/23rd Infantry,

Sounds like it was tailored for the hawks

desertstorm · 02-10-2009 12:01am

8.5 joule max sniper limit? :eek: I'd say that's going to result in some serious "holy sh1t what was that" moments

Might put a rifle together for this specifically

Cheeky monkey · 02-10-2009 12:31am

Pretty sure your mistaken man its around 3.96 joules

There's no point Doc I was bored ****less last year with my 500fps rifle because of the minimum engagement

Get used to it... everyone else in the world uses one for 500s... Then again, if you can't hit it outside the minimum engagement distance, you're doing something fundimentally wrong...

8.5j? **** playing against that... im under the belief also, its around 3j ish... 700fps iirc with 50m min engagement. Not too big a deal at that power limit... most achivable hitswise if you know what you're doing and set your rifle up right.

In fairness, they very much look like they are the NATO-esque force.

why would he be taking the piss with that?

TheDoc · 02-10-2009 2:29pm

Cause he sat around the camp doing **** all last year

He larp'd as a bum

Firekitten · 02-10-2009 3:49pm

Well... I don't disagree with him frankly... Larp airsoft can be great craic, There was an excelent interogation i conducted at a game earlier this year which made the whole thing worth while... we actually aquired a crowd of spectators we acted it up so much...

The civi side looks good, but personally im looking at the Pavlova Psyops side... Undercover ninja'ness, sneaky beaky misions and generally being the 'bad guys' seems fun.

My take on this is... something akin to bosnia, or perhaps Georgia, The Pavlovas ( i know thats not thier real name, but its funnier) Are your russians/ serbs... with the NAF being the smaller rebel defenders.. well, in this case it shares more with bosnia like Berget 4... Big dogs go attack civilians and defense force... I think it has good scope frankly.
