Ok, firstly let me thank everyone who made it out to the game. It was a terrific day for airsoft and there were a lot of new faces I saw, and old faces I hadn't seen in a while.

It was about 40 degrees outside, sunny all day. Snow was still on the ground here, so it made for a very diverse camo arrangement.


We split up teams and hit the field around 11 or so. First game was a deathmatch with 3 respawns. I took my squad up the creek and engaged about 4 guys who were bunkered down there. My squad managed to take out one or two guys that were down in the weeds before we all got hit and had to regroup. I went back to the same place and went to work. I managed to hit 1 in the weeds where they were before, and then started hitting people across the small cornfield that were hitting the second team hard. I took a hit from across the same place I took it before. Last death was in a similar place, but this time I didn't get much done outside of a few random pot shots. Anyway, blue team won... which wasn't us.

Second team was a patrol mission. Our team had to protect a piece of intel(an ammo box) in the barn. Two members were allowed to stay and protect the canister, the other 10 had to go and patrol the cornfields. They weren't permitted to stop unless engaging the enemy.

I stayed in the barn with the box, along with Spassmiester. We both had DMRs or spring sniper rifles, so it was an obvious choice to leave us behind. I basically was just calling out positions to the guys on the ground the whole game. Didn't see too much action outside of one or two easy sniper shots I managed to pull off. I ended my life by hitting shot in the back... Blue team wins again.

We took lunch.

Third mission was the same mission, by reversed. We were attacking. My squad which consisted of Church, Novak and Din moved up along the tree ling closest to the staging area and engaged 4 enemies that were at the corner of the woods that led to the barn. We took pot shots at each other for nearly 45 minutes. Then the taunting started. Eventually we were able to dash to their position... where we all got subsequently eliminated... good times.


The majority of the people took off after this scenario. It left us with about 10 people. The rest of the guys went out and are still in the field as I type this. I am sitting back at staging with Novak, while he shoots his gun and I type and AAR... Laptops ftw.


Anyway, good day. Nice to be back on the field that really got me started in the community. I've always loved Mimban and believe me... we will be having more games here.


Thanks to all that came out and all that donated some food. All of the food collected will be donated to the Greater Pittsburgh Area Food Bank in the name of the Western Pennsylvania Airsofting Community.

Very nice to get out to play today. :) Thanks to Joker for hosting. That was the first time I'd made it down to Mimban and I really enjoyed playing there.

During the first deathmatch game, I got cracked right in the lower lip and though (surprisingly) it doesn't hurt, it looks like someone punched me in the mouth. Nathan says my lip looks like a nightcrawler. lol. Badger took a picture, so maybe he'll post it up.

During the second match I played as part of the patrol. I did a lot of shooting, but I have no idea if I hit anyone. I ended up getting hit and bleeding out before a medic could get to me.

For the third match, our team was trying to get the intel from the barn. I made a huge circle ALL THE WAY around the back field, getting in a couple firefights along the way. Just as I was creeping up toward the back side of the barn and only about 50 yards away, the whistle blew for the game to be over. Next time I will have to get around that field faster! :rolleyes:

Just finished watching Tropic Thunder.

I had fun today even with an underperforming gun. The weather was nice and got to meet more folks from here on the forum.

Joker, gotta say, reaaaally nice place.

Good game. Feels good to hit the field for the first time since August. Im exhausted now though. I gotta clean my m4 and gear off; they are covered in dirt from the last game, when I crawled about 100ft X_X.

Also, whoever was taking the pics, POST them up!

I just put my ACUs in the wash and I'll be cleaning my gear and guns tomorrow. Good games even though crawling through snow and mud for most of the last scenario was just a little ridiculous...

It was good to meet up with old friends (Kilo Co, Sholef and Spass, Mike and JP), meet some cool people (Medic and RomesB), and some interesting fellows were there.

I was pretty much screwing off all day, running the drum on my M4 till the battery died, then playing with a POS sniper till it broke.

Good day, even though I experienced weapon malfunctions.

Hey, if folks are in such a hurry for photos, maybe next time you'll bring your own camera and risk getting shot up while wearing hunter ORANGE ;)

Anyway, I didn't get many photos, just a handful from the three game. There wasn't much movement so photo & video ops were limited. Also, they're a little mixed out of order :rolleyes:

Cheers

Actually I was so busy for Z3, I only took one or two and they didn't look much different than Z1. However, I did take a bunch of videos...

What camo pattern is GoReds sweater? I may have to give it a try...


Looks like I missed out, but X-Mas shopping is teh best, especially when you get all the shopping done early instead of on 12/24 ;)

It's called GRANPAT or "Grandma's Christmas Sweater" pattern. Give it a try, I think it would look good on you :p
