August 5th - Second MilSim - Operation BOOMSLANG

August 5th- 0930 - Buster 2



Well the second MilSim is almost ready.

I fixed the date to August 5th (long weekend) but if too many people are out, I'll move the date. I choose sunday because a lot of guys are busy on saturday. I'd like to start around 0930 but that can be changed too (church)

For the first timers, a MilSim one game for the whole day with multiples missions, objectives, situations etc... If it's your first one, read the briefing & debriefing of the privious MilSim : it'll give you a good idea.

For the veterans, this one will be different : less acting, less decision making, less stress but way more shooting.

Basic organisation : 5 teams !! Again teams are based on gear, so start looking for gear.

Bearland army : 5 to 10 slots. must have military gear (same patern is better)

Mooseland army : exact same size, same requirements

Bearland guerrilla : 5 to 10 slots, must have one piece of civvies mini (shirt or pants) = can't be in full set of camo.

Mooseland guerrilla : same

IFOR (interposition force) : 5 to 10 MUST have military gear with the same patern OR will wear orange or blue hat all day.


Situation :

The region of Buster is situated between the Mooseland and the Bearland. Both countries claim Buster as part of their territory. For the last 20 years, small fire exchange are commun between the two armies.
The local population is now involve in a growing conflict, and conduct sabotage, assasination and guerrilla warfare.
To prevent a major war, NATO sent troops as Interposition Forces to stop the combats and force the parties to negociate.

You can start sign up for the game, teams are not secret so you can post here. Sign up too for leader position but I'll decide.

Send me a pm if for sure you CAN'T play this day.
You can bring friends without gun : I have a role for them

Rules update :

Game is based on turns, each team got 2h to complete its objectives and score points.

Typical turn :

One military team has to secure differents position to expand their territory. To secure a position the team leader attaches a ribbon at the center of the position then blew the airhorn for 3 seconds.

The other military team has to defend its positions. It can be done only by guarding or/and patrolling. NO ambush.

Guerrilla team can work with their military team (ambush, recon, diversion...) or by themselves. They can not take a position but can make sure their military team are clear to do it.

When a position is secure, it is so for the rest of the turn.

IFOR specials rules.
IFOR troops are here to stop the combats. They work as a repulsive magnet with military troops : no one can be less than 5 m of a IFOR soldier, whatever the situation they have to move away from any IFOR troops. That's how the IFOR stop most combat, by moving betwen the belligerents. IFOR soldiers can and will shoot anybody not moving away fast enough.

Military leader can decide to engage the IFOR forces but they have 5 mn to destroy the full team. Past 5 mn the whole team is consider destroyed by air support called by IFOR.
Same rules for an IFOR soldier hit by accident : the IFOR engage and after 5mn win the combat if there's IFOR soldier still alive.

Guerrilla can ambush and attack IFOR. Special rule doesn't apply to them.
IFOR can't engage guerrila on sight, must be self defense.

During a turn all teams can receive secret objectives by the gamemaster.

After 2h the attacking become the defender.

Respawn is done at respawn points or at captured position if not under attack. It is done by pair or by 3 mn : you wait 3 mn unless someone join you, then both of you respawn.

Still have no clue how to keep track of the points

DIRECTIONS :

Sweet more shooting, I'll be there.

If I have to hitchhike with my gun and tent on my back I will be certainly try to be there!

Sign me up!

update

Hey Nic,

Can only the attacking teams (ie. Mooseland army & Mooseland guerilla) choose to attack the IFOR at one time or can both sides engage the IFOR? What's to stop all 4 forces from attacking the IFOR simultaneously? Seems like a brutal numerical advantage (20:5). I imagine we will have some underhanded shenanigans again with some of those pesky guerilla forces though so it should be fun regardless.

Are you playing this time? If so, what team?

sign me up

im in camp but i will try to make it

I'll probably be working. I'll update as we near the date. (I miss airsoft)

Everybody can attack IFOR if it's a joint-operation guerrilla-military, the 5 mn rules applies. On IFOR soldier just has to hide for 5 mn to wipe out the full team (massive lost/gain of points); so that's not that easy is the IFOR team plays good.
4 forces attaking IFOR ? Yep, they can do it, but it will be hightly unrealistic !!! Imagine the Serbians helping the Bosniaks to shoot the UN
I'm hoping to make the rules clear enought so I can play. I'd like the IFOR team but nobody else got M84 gear so I'll go military team.

I'd like to have a Gamemaster and a cameraman for the day !
Need a poster too !!

Hey I'm not 100% if I'll be able to make it or not. I have a friend coming up from Alberta so not quite sure... you'll also have to wait another week or two for me to do a poster... I kind of lack a computer at the moment...

I'm in. I'll try to get some friends in to. I want to be on a guerrilla but I'll take any team. I'm also up for leading a guerrilla team.

I will be there need directions comeing from mission

should be there aug5 bring my oldest boy as well, dont have a lot of camo but got the gun, hope to see ya all there should be a new experience compaired to paintball

I think I am in. IFOR leader if you need. If anyone can find a blue berret or a L pasgt cover I will buy it for $25 or less.

Cadpat, woodland, flecktarn, black are my gear set-ups...never ACU.

please sign up for a team, if you're not sure if you meet the requirements shoot me a pm !

I'd love to come, but I'll be in Ontario.

I should be in. Not sure about teams, I have a noob friend coming out and possibly my wife. Amanda and I both have full DPM my buddy, Derrek, will have either mismatched or hunting type camo. I guess we could all go militia. I'm not sure if Dustin, Chris or Donovan can make it.

Well, looks like I will be working for the long weekend, hope you folks all have fun!

If I am not around to do the tags up, here is the image, I am sure someone can figure out how they work

On second thought, I will clean it up a bit when I get off work this week and leave instructions.

Nic, did you get my email with the milsim poster??... Shoot I have a few grammar mistakes... I'll re-email you.

Looks Like I'm out. Knee injury. toren legament posible cartilage damage.

Drache and I are both going to try and be there: still finalizing which grunt is covering my shift. I will need directions out from HWY97S.

I'm geared for guerrilla as stands, not sure what Drache is gearing for this time round.

Well if I get my crap together I'll be with full camo, if not then it's most likely guerilla for me too.

How many people are playing so far?

Also, I noted there is a $15 fee noted on the poster. For comparison purposes, what exactly do you use the fee for?

Those are our club fees, they go towards props like radios, fake TNT, the chrono... etc. Not sure what Frag has planned so I have no idea if any will be used in the milsim.
