Operation Purge, Springfield, OH, Spring 2010

[strikers_blade]

Gentlemen,

I am trying to put a special event together for early next year. The event will bring several new ideas but one of the main important idea (which is also very restrictive) would consist of enforcing a very specific loadout for one side. I will not disclose everything right away but here are the major guideline on paper already:

The United Confederation
BDU: Marpat, ACU, Xcamo, Multicam.
Loadout: Mandatory plate carrier and helmet (need to be confirmed).
Medic rule: 21st century methods.
Ammo rule: Latest weaponry available.
Mag rule: Latest weaponry available.
Purpose/mission: Clean the planet of all resistance.

The resistance
BDU: obsolete patterns such as Woodland, desert 3c and 6c, DPM, OD, tigerstripe, etc.
Loadout: everything but a full vest and helmet.
Medic rule: 20th century methods.
Ammo rules: Obsolete ammunition such as the .223 and .308.
Mag rules: everything but Highcaps.
Purpose/mission: survive.

Now before you start saying "why this and why that", just remember it is the way it is because I want to try something new. If it is played and done the way we are already playing, I will just rename it Operation 2xx something and be done with it.

Being said, I am not sure about the date, the whole mission layout, the schedule or even the entry fees so don't ask about that just yet. What I really need to know though is who would like to experiment such event. You don't have to pay, you don't have to buy anything, just give me a "yeh" or "neh" on AEV. that will give me a rough idea on who see something nice into such event.

So anyway, here is the link to register, just remember. If you register for the confederation, you must own (or willing to) one of the 4 BDU pattern above but also a plate carrier and a helmet (still not sure about that one yet). If you go resistance, you can wear everything you want except the patterns above and a full vest and helmet.

note: I can't post the event here because we are limited in numbers of event active.

I tried to register, but it won't go past Payment Type.

[nhviper]

High Five for awesomeness Blade! Most definitely we'd be interested in doing this!

[strikers_blade]

UrbanMarine,

sorry, I skipped the payment details in the event and that is why it is not showing properly.
Ok then, I will fix the payment stuff and you can fill the payment thingy but DO NOT PAY OR SEND MONEY

[UrbanMarine]

Got it. The page wasn't loading correctly. Thanks.
I also shot you a email about ref/opfor/civ.

Hell ya im in great sounding game with out the "zombie" mentality attached to it, sounds more like a Judge Dread thing( remeber the "block wars" from the movie ?)or recent tv show jericho ?

[strikers_blade]

The zombie thing will be later. too many loopholes and flaws

[Ozzsclan]

Thats what i meant there no flesh eating wankers running around its a simple ...post nuke area where survival of the fitest is the name of the game ?

[strikers_blade]

I would say it is more like the movie "soldier" where a planet cleanup is needed. Nothing personal really, the resistance (all none military personel) are just in the way

[AWOL]

I'm in. Already signed up.

What kind of specific weapon limitations is the resistance looking at? I'm not that well-versed in real steel so the ammunition types don't explain much to me. :P

[strikers_blade]

Karma, Obviously, limiting the weapons would be a bit extreme since not many "futuristic" weapons exist out there. Yes, I could have said Masada and Scar guns only for the confederation but limiting weaponry/mags has been proven to be a very bad ideas in the past mainly due to cost, availability and reliability.

Being said, I purposely said real steel ammo type because they do not refer to any airsoft counterparts. The purpose is simply to allow me to add, modify or simply change the fps, quantity and other limitations to each side. For example, I could say resistance will be limited to 350fps due to their ammo type while I could say the confederation use a variation of the SS109 ammo which allow them to go up to 400fps. That is just an example but I hope you get the idea.

[Karma]

Oh ok, I was afraid you were going to limit it to whatever the real-steel counterpart could chamber.

[NH_Nitemare]

+1 for another amazing concept from Blade!!

[Firedog]

New season, new game type, I'm in

[pvtpepper]

For the Confederation, can any vest be used? or does it have to be a plate carrier?

Not to but in, but I am sure that it says "plate" carrier.

[HK]

I'm down if I'm off need the date first but I'll count my self in as of now

[Titan]

Sounds like a blast to me!

[HitMan]

Great idea! I look forward to this.

[Shadersnake]

Looks like I'll be making the drive down again

[strikers_blade]

Don't forget guys; the only way for me to see if there is interest is to register on www.airsoftevents.com event page. It is easy now to see but when this thread will hava pages and pages, I won't be able to track everyone.

[H.O.S.68]

Registered on AE cant wait.

[PyroPenguin]

Sounds interesting...registered at AE today.
Thanks to Blade and the rest of the Strikers for trying new ideas.

[TheRaptor]

Looks great blade, im going to have to get a plate carrier and helmet for this one
