  1. Guilty as charged. Not worn them since I gave up riding, this seemed a good excuse. I'm good 😉
  2. Milsims are too serious for my taste. Too many walts and weekend warriors preening over their authenticity and immersion, while playing toy soldiers in the woods. I play for fun, not to have orders barked at me by a guy who suddenly got a small amount of power.
  3. I have that rig and run either TM MWS Stanag or Ares 762 mags in it, depending on what rifle I'm using. It does need some adjustment back if I've used it for 762 before the stanag mags are secure. This is good advice.
  4. To be fair, I caused a war crime deliberately. I was exchanging shots with one of my Outcasts, who were playing for Vukodlak, and I had just been payed 100 snozzbucks to merc for Calladia. At that moment the arms dealer pulled up, so I threw all my weapons in the back of the truck. Now an unarmed civilian, I stepped out of cover and Ramon shot me in the chest. Boom, war crime 😁
  5. THANK YOU! I wanted to paint Thunderburp 3 on the side.
  6. I believe you played with my boys, the Outcasts, if I'm not mistaken. They were well impressed with your playing. Keelhaul this mutineer.
  7. I'm picky about my rums, but Kraken is the best when it comes to a decently priced rum. There are better, but then the price starts creeping up.
  8. I'm guessing you don't order much from China 🫤 Their idea of 3xl is an L
  9. Had to keep this under wraps, until after the battlesim. New game objective, find all the components required to launch the rocket, including the nose cone.
  10. AM I DOING AN AIRSOFT RIGHT? KTW Flintlock pistol and musket.
  11. Well, yesterday at Red Alert was our 4th, and final, Battlesim in the Vukodlak war story line. The past three years Vukodlak forces have been victorious. Having played for Vukodlak in previous years, this year I decided to marshal which, as with many battlesims, meant playing as a civilian/quest giver. I spiced it up by playing as a pirate. I was giving out quests to find my lost parrot. There were 3 inflatable parrots hidden about the site, but I had drawn an eye patch on one, and in my quest spiel I mentioned that Polly only had one eye. If they brought back the parrot with the eye patch they got a reward. I also had a bottle of grog, which got hidden, and there was a reward if they brought me "alcohol". The main objective of the day was to find all the items needed to arm a rocket, and then launch it. The rocket is something I've been building recently, but kept off of social media so it would be a surprise for the players on the day. There were two nose cones, one for each team, a round one and a pointy one (pointy is scary). Other civilians had other quests. The drug dealers were selling bags of stuff, for in game currency. This could be handed in to the sheriffs for a reward, or bartered with other npcs. There was the Hobo wandering the site with his wheelbarrow full of junk, but underneath the junk was a laptop that contained the launch codes. Driving around in his pickup was the arms dealer. He would sell you weapons that you could plant on any unarmed civilians you may have shot, and thereby avoid a war crime. 😉 The Camels wanted water, mostly... Some civilians were mercs, that would fight for a team for short time, if paid well. At the end of the day Vukodlak were victorious AGAIN, despite some excellent play from the Calladian forces. It was a bloody marvellous day, that ended with both teams wearing massive grins and swapping stories over a beer. So roll on 2025, for a whole new story for our next battlesim! Unfortunately a lot of people had already gone home before we took the last photo after debrief.
  12. You know that guy that thinks he's funny, but everyone else is cringing?
  13. He also has a rifle up, that states used once but looks pretty well worn.
  14. Arrr, tis a whale of a tale to be sure!
  15. We're doing a lot of maintenance right now. More bridges to come, some structures to be torn down and replaced, some repaired, some new ones. Woodland with a few knackered barricades just doesn't cut it. The decking will be gritted and painted, for extra grip. Think skateboard grip tape, on a larger scale. We've had 6 of us jumping down on this one. My welds hold 😉 20240425_150829.mp4 Oh, and I added this today. YARRR!
  16. I've had my brother's Jaguar XK the past few weeks. Jeeeesus this thing is rapid. You're doing 90 before you start the engine!
  17. Wise decision. Have a look around the forum, and feel free to ask questions about any gun you're considering buying. There is a huge amount of experience and knowledge, going back decades, on this forum. We can stop you buying a lemon.
  18. Ooohoo. I look forward to your report! I think it looks gorgeous, but G&G makes me hesitant.
