Bring it.

Smoov will it cost extra to hire cams or is that included in the $36?

No sorry xabu we are not a commercial field everything is run on a volunteer basis, money goes towards, tagger upkeep which Fragtag has sponsored to VLSA, Insurace and Field Hire. Anything extra goes back into VLSA for future games, props and making events bigger and better etc VLSA is non for profit. None of the money goes into our pockets, we run the VLSA so we can play combat sims and skirmish with out having to go commercial with high running cost etc.

 

So on that note we dont have cams to hire out because we dont own any cams (but it maybe something we can look at in the future). Although one of our members does have a big range of cams he lends out, but its a first in first served basis.

 

So I reccomend bringing some sort of long pants (not jeans) anything toned down like OD or tan or brown etc.

 

Covered shoes, Boots are the best. Will send out a details email this week regarding Saturday Session

just a bit to far for a day trip

just a bit to far for a day trip

 

Hey JL we will be probably be running some 24Hour+ Sessions sometime over the remainder of the year, We will be making sure people have enough notice to organise themselves. Usually these 24Hours session are a combat sims sessions, so you hump your gear into the field, setup camp, run day and night piquets and complete objectives so of like a mini Lazer Storm

This would be really good fun with a group of mates...T-bag's and all..

Yep, We've got the full carload going for the 0530 start to drive up there. Can't wait.

lol i'll be leaving at 0545 but need to be there an hour earlier, so your only an hour drive longer than me

Get stuck into guys, you will have a ball promise ya! Just smack Smoove around if he orders u too much Take lots of pics, follow orders and drink plenty of water!

Remember: If someone's wearing a ghillie, it's ok to urinate on them and claim you didn't see them.

Just checking, has an email gone out? Just wondering if I missed it or something.

Sorry Xaboo22 one will be sent this morning

This was an obscenely awesome day. Already hanging out for the next one.

 

And smoov, i think my bank account will hate you for introducing me to another potentially expensive hobby!

Heheh my pleasure

 

Would like to thank AntarticTheFox and your crew from coming down from wangaratta

 

Also like to thank Xaboo and your mate Reinar for heading down

 

Was good to play along you guys and you all took orders well and were great team mates

 

We did well with the scenarios during the morning and the com sims session definitely got interesting towards the end I think AntarticTheFox put it well definitely felt like the real army with all the constant changes on Grid References just to complete second phase objectives.

 

So hopefully we can get you back for the next session in July, With more sessions under your belt you will get a better feel for it all

Nah its not expensive at all! Says the guy who is waiting for his $300 order of milsim gear to come in from Hong Kong. :sweat:

Fox = 2nd on the right in the Armory pic ;3

 

The day was absolutely insane though, I'll be hitting these up whenever I can now that I've got a taste of it.

 

On a side note, that SAW really wears on your arms after lugging it about for 4 hours.

 

Totally worth it though.
