As a little treat for all concerned at the Spring and Gas day at Tuddenham today, Okto Eight Milsim staged a short scenario as a small sample of the Milsim Taster planned for May 30th.
Pablo Estevez, Mexican Cartel boss had been sprung from jail and together with his henchmen, was observed by satellite surveillance speeding South towards the US/Mexican border (and freedom).
The only thing that could stop him was the Law Enforcement team based in the US border town of Tuddamo.
As the black armoured SUV headed towards the line, there were only two ways it could end.
Players were split into two Law Enforcement teams and were given about ten minutes to work out how to use the available tools to not only stop the vehicle, but re-capture Estevez (and his money) with minimum loss of life.
In the end, a roadside IED was used to halt the car and a shaped charge was used on the doors to get them open.
Both teams managed to succeed in the challenge, even after the IED failed to go off on Team B's challenge.
The full Milsim Taster experience will be held at Tuddenham on the Bank Holiday Monday and features a full day of challenges that need a little thought as well as a cool nerve.
