Good work Ozone! You are the unofficial ambassador. See if this guys has any idea of the concept of MILSIM. If he hasn't even heard of MIA that worrys me a bit.. He had heard of MiA but he only lurked. I got him to register tonight. He had no idea of milsim or any of that, he just hosted Rec games with about 10-20 guys and played. He had no clue of the potential of MiA . So once I saw that sign I felt obligated to call him and talk to him about it. I recommended he host a few Rec games and get the feel of hosting a huge group of people, get his reffing in line, and get his field to "milsim potential." I could tell he wanted to host milsims though. I'm pretty stoked to go meet him and check out the field with him tomorrow, I can see this field booming in no time.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to talking with him. I wish I had the time to get out and meet him in the next week or two, but I'm a little hung up with family problems. You're going to have to represent, Ozone.

Don't let us down! I have nothing else to say This could be really good for us though. Immortal Detroit/Hellfish host the first milsim there? Maybe!

OZONE, you are my hero. Don't forget add if they need build days... I think were all willing to pitch in. Also, MILSIM would be sick, but also weekly REC games to fill in the trigger time would be fun as well. I am stoked that there is finally a freaking field within Ten minutes of Canton.

I talked to him on the phone for over an hour suggesting him things and talking about Airsoft. He's a pretty cool guy, so I don't think we will have a "grumpy old lady yelling at everyone" (cough) No Limits . I did actually tell him about build days and he lit up with excitement, I said if you need help building your field, I guarantee you there's a lot of people willing to help. If/when I go up there today to meet him, I'll have pictures and may take a few videos (finally get some use from my ContourHD) if there are some really cool areas.

Well once I get in touch with him tonight, (He hasn't called me and didn't pick up his phone when I just called him) and we can get some stuff running, why not have some Hellfish help ? You guys always host great games, and you're in the area, so you could help direct them with games.

If I go out to talk to him tonight, I'll definitely mention you guys for help running games.

Let's not get all high and mighty gents, we all had to start somewhere. Hopefully these guys can pick up from our lead and learn and grow into the hobby a bit more.

Just got in from the field. The owner is a great guy. Trust, his (wife? fiance? girlfriend? sister?), and I went out there together and gave the guy some input on his field, he gave us a walkthrough. His field is MASSIVE! it's one of the biggest fields I've seen. I recorded the whole walkthrough on my ContourHD. He's pretty open to suggestions, may schedule in some build days. There's an event Sunday at 10am, I know I'll be there, Trust and his (Girl ) will be there. This field has so much going for it guys. You'll be amazed by the size, and the cool things it has. I can't put into words how much I enjoyed the walkthrough, so I'll post the video tonight. It definitely will be Mil-Sim capable. We suggested camping on site too, so he may host over night games and all that. He definitely has the land to do so. I will upload the video soon.
