I would just like to say I had a great time. Excellent sportsmanship and teamwork all around. Although the crowd was smaller, it was only to be expected at a first event. It did make it much more Interesting though, as we were able to work together better, do some stuff that would be harder to do with more people and I really enjoyed the tan team and green team. I always hate tape because I feel it gives you away much easier, I would highly recommend to try to stay with the green team/ tan team for future events, although I understand this may not be possible. Everyone was very nice and mature. The ref was also a very cool guy as well. Good crowd of people overall.
Some suggestions for the field I have are
- Less time between rounds, 5-10 min is ideal
- Bigger staging area (as more people come this will be needed)
- Label the structures, or make existing labels more clear so it is easier to communicate locations of people and objectives
All in all I had a awesome time and will definitely be coming out to any future events!

Had an awesome time even with less then 20 people. Can't wait for the field and games to grow. It was such a good thing to be back at such an awesome field.

I was trying to make it out to this game, but not having a functioning gun kind of put a damper on that hope. Has the field changed much CJA? I played a couple rounds of paintball with my brother there ~ 2010.
Also, count my happy ass in for the next one.

TC was excellent. I can't wait to play there again. Hopefully this becomes an every other weekend thing like the owner said. There was a great group of guys out there. This is probably the first rec game I have been to where there wasn't and hit calling issues, everyone was very honest and it made the play that much better. Im also glad they had a ref who actually gave a shit about Airsoft and joined us for the last couple games. Overall I'm very happy with how it all turned out. If you thought about coming and didn't it's your loss. It was a great day of slinging bbs.
Pros: Great group of people Green vs tan Half the field for Airsoft only
Cons: Time between games Woods part of the field wasn't very good. (Needs some trimming on paths)
I will definatly be attending any other game held there.
Thank you TC for holding an Airsoft event.
Also happy the CJA got the golf cart approved for future games.

Added a lot of small cover, removed the Higgins boats and trashy cars, added a log "castle" on the edge of the woods and completely changed the trench side of the field into a king of the hill cement bunker play ground. I got a lot of footage but not a lot worth watching, I'll try and get some posted in the next couple of days.

Awesome. The trenches were a very effective way to get pinned down for hours at a time. Glad to hear they're gone. Was anyone taking photos or running a go pro?

I'd be interested in watching the footage, wether it is interesting or not as I like to see how it played out from the other perspective

Green only won a game I think but I had a good time regardless. We had a great group of people putting their best foot forward for the first airsoft game hosted by TCP.
Unfortunately 2 of the 3 fields that TCP had are pretty unplayable for airsoft. They were to small to really do anything on. The main village and woods area however was great and it's nice to see all the improvements from what it was last year.
Looking forward to the next game.

Hello Everyone, Thank you all for the feedback in getting our fields optimized for airsoft! We will definitely be widening the paths and clearing our some of the major sections before our next event on the 16th. Same times as before, open at 11, games at 12 (We will be on time this time around, we didn't have an air horn ready for the event) Games will end at 6. We will be doing the same sign up/registration where you sign a waiver online or check in to the event and you'll get 5 dollars off the door price of $20. The link is below. www.vantora.com/paintball/tcpaintball-lansing/waiver/default.asp?ev=10468224Please bring a barrel bag for the staging areas. Puma, while i reff, i wont be able to play. i have a set of gear you are more than welcome to use. Although i don't have camo, nor ACU camo either.

Nah man, I got a gun. I tried to be my own tech, and as T6 can attest to, that usually ends poorly. I'll have my full capacities back soon. Gear, Camo and key mod M4 and all. I really appreciate the offer though, it means a lot.
