Competition for Members...

[Wheeler]

I am just curious, what other teams are there in the Muskegon/Fruitport area that PhantomOps would be... uh, "competing for members" with? And on top of that, how big are you guys and what are the chances you want to have some skirmishes or something?

[Jacko]

MIAIRSOFTCORPS is over that way, but I don't know how many people they have. Quite a few, if I had to guess. Unless you mean how big they physically are. Savage of SOCOM, which is in the Muskegon area, is like 6'8".

[Bigmack]

Thats just cause he wears those Herman Munster shoes with the 3 inch thick sole...

[Savage]

Bigmack's right. It's 6'5" without the shoes. Caught me cheating the system. Didn't think anybody would notice. Guess it must look funny to other people that I have combat boots with 3" thick soles.

Wheelz, there's a few different teams to compete with for members in your general area. SOCOM (a team within the MIAIRSOFTCORPS), Forgotten Soldiers, Task Force Griffin, MAN (Muskegon Airsoft Network), and Section-8 just to name the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I can't give you an accurate headcount for each, but most range between 5 - 10 members. SOCOM has 7 on the roster, but in all reality only a couple of us are truly active. You'll find most the other teams have the same problem.

As far as having skirmishes- the problem of where to have them usually shuts them down. If you have a legal, land owner-approved, safe, and fun area to host it shouldn't be too difficult to arrange a game with one of the teams mentioned above.

Otherwise, you'll have to do like most the rest of us do. Go to the games listed under events, or get in on the 21CA Sunday games.

Since we're all younger if you have some young guys that want a team of young guys you could send them our way. (or not your choice )

[Wheeler]

I think that's what we're all about... the younger, under 18 guys that still want to have a bit of fun without getting too far into it just yet. I think.

[GeneralPatten]

Yes and no. We still want to have a degree of milsim to it.

[BoredKender]

then there's me and my 3-man (so far) team.no name yet. probably "la resistance".was our PB name. but we eagerly look forward to skimishing/training once 3rd man gets back from Nat' Guard month duty
