1 USUK SF place left and 5 HAS-MAD

I'm pretty sure they mean it when they say no more places will be added as it's at 250 now.

It's going to be uber.

 
I really enjoyed it tbh, for me the Brittac event worked well as a 'my first milsim' as they are more of a themed skirmish as aposed to the full on Stirling/Teir1 events.

I'd did however suffer from withdrawal symptoms for the next couple of Sunday skirmishes :P as they lacked that extra buzz of driving around in the back of a pickup :D

 
Well Hopefully I will be going. Just waiting to hear if there's a way to pay the deposit without paypal or a mobile phone.

Btw have you seen the begadi.com opfor range?

They have an entire section devoted to opfor gear, including the most unusual camo ever. Its the Hawaiian shirt of camo :D

 
yeah unfortunately there would probably be to much green

the 'rebel' loadout has to either be civilian or khaki/tan/brown etc...

 
Rus you can use any credit/debit card through PayPal

 
Yes I have 1 card and paypal blocked it. I had a period where I kept changing cards due to faulty chips on Natwest cards and Paypal decided it was suspicious.

I hadn't, no. Oh my hole though, what was the idea do we think, they're opfor - they should be easier to spot? I swear I couldn't stand the shame of walking back to regen with my hand in the air wearing that get-up. You just know that people would be falling over themselves to get photos...

Anyway, unless you're buying a couple of hundred quid's worth from Begadi it makes no sense to buy directly from them because they have some ridiculous handling fee banged on every order, so fuck 'em!

I believe that the pattern is loosely based upon an old Rhodesian camo pattern. It probably isn't the best camo, but it would probably work better than no camo at all. Its probably chosen because it looks completely different to every other camo pattern. If you're putting a team uniform together and want to look a bit different....

 
Well there's different, like M84, Tigerstripe ACU, Rooivalk, Russian Partizan...

then there's pure bellend.

Apparently its still in use in Zimbabwe. It seems to be effective when you see it in context.

There may be a case for making sure it fades a bit before being seen in public though :)

Yeah, just a bit! And maybe using something like well diluted PVA to permanently stick some dirt to it too.

And when I say "some" obviously I mean 'plenty' :lol:

 
Hi guys hopefully I can answer some of your questions, there are no weapon restrictions as for as what type any team can use, but there are strict ammunition restriction, details are in the event info. As stated earlier DMRs are under AEG rules and can be 368 max, no higher. Door mines and trip mines can only be 9mm max(same for any BFG on site) and you must have line of site and place it sensibly(not on stairwells/stairs etc etc) pyro costs at the event are 4 for £10 on mk5/6 flashbangs and 90sec smokes, there will be pre orders for bulk buys at a reduced cost(info will go up in the team groups)

The game is a theme game, not a milsim so it's a a bit more relaxed and aimed having some good wholesome fun! Look forward to seeing you there! By the way there are 4 HAS MAD places left and that's the event full at 250!

 
Thanks for the info Van650, is there any possibility of ball-type grenades as well as the thunder flash types? I can't stand the Mk5/6, they don't fit in pouches and I always bugger up throwing them!

 
Looks like I'm on Has-Mad. All my gear at present is dpm. I may have to do some shopping.

Hmm, if Van can comment on the begadi opfor's suitability for HAS-MAD, I see an opportunity to troll Ian :D

Yeah too green, I can look at ball grenades for bulk orders but usually they are too expensive

 
Russ, for HAS MAD, think civvy rebel look, don't forget your black and white shemaghs though!

 
roger dodger, I'm happy to pay for them, just cannot get on with the Mk5 and the event rules say only site bought pyro to be used!
