Figured I'd start this. I had a great time. Thank you Canto for hosting a great event. Great to see you again, too. Casper, it's always a pleasure. I met some new people too, such as Doom, Triggs, and Gimpalong. I had a great time with all of you. Thanks for a great day. The event overall was great, especially in the morning, some of the best action I've seen in a while. The organization on green team was great, particularly Bravo, who I rolled with for most of the day. We were extremely efficient with accomplishing objectives, and only had a few issues with resistance. I felt that finally having my radio that works really made this event what it was for me. It's always a lot more fun when you don't need to rely on others for a SITREP. The events after lunch were another story, however. It quickly turned into a clusterfuck, with the tan team starting outside of our spawn and capturing it, with their backs to the sun. Awful. Our whole team was suffering through so much sun glare that we couldn't see shit. We were at a complete strategic disadvantage. Our situation improved however, when we finally moved into the village. I was given command of a fire team, and we were to move up and attack the peninsula, spreading out into a half-C formation. Sounded simple enough, until I charged through the creek, getting completely soaked and shot in the head, AFTER MY ENTIRE FIRE TEAM DECIDED THEY WERE AFRAID OF WATER!!!!!! That's right, they simply crouched down, not firing a round, watching me make a futile solo attempt to capture a defensive line as I(followed by them on open ground), was gunned down in the creek from the high ground.  After that, the action thinned out pretty heavily, and I simply covered our team's EOD specialist as he disarmed an IED. By the way, whoever was the contractor behind that tree, I hit you at least FOUR fucking times! I watched my white BBs bounce off of your torso, and you just got back behind your comfy little tree as if nothing had happened! Two other team mates claimed to have witnessed this too, and nobody present approved of what they saw.  Overall, the second half was still fun despite the massive advantage the tan team had. I left early, due to being picked up by my neighbor at six, so could somebody please tell me what the outcome was? Grizzly out. |

Grizzly, the game ended at 6:15, with green team being declared the winners by 3 objectives. I had a great time today. Thanks, Canto, for putting this together. I'm sure Damage, Inc. will be back next year. The objectives were cool, and I agree, fighting into the sun all day sucked, but overall the day was awesome. Great job everyone! Now, I have a ton of mud to clean off of my gear. Bulldog 4 out.

Grizzly, while I can understand your frustrations, as we've all been there before- this is not the appropriate place to try to call someone out for cheating.
As far as the game goes- Tan team, those first couple hours were rough and I was probably a little more gruff than I intended, but we I appreciate you guys putting up with me, and we pulled through. The odds were against us, but we persevered and made one helluva comeback in part 2.
I loved the objective system on the second part- and between Badger's team, Gunner's group and my Wolfpack, we did some serious work on those objectives.
All in all, we had a blast- hope to see everyone again on the field sometime soon.

First, I would like to thank Canto and armory air soft for a great op. The first half was a ton of fun. Although it was extremely unfair for tan team. However I understood the woes of tan team when multi cam (including me) was switched after lunch. Leading all the way from the mass amount of light machine gunners on green Team, to the lack of communication for all of tan team. All together I still had a ton of fun and I can't wait to sling some plastic again. |

I had a great time, best event of the season for me. Game was well done, I didn't see any cheating or no-hit calling that was blatant, and despite the disadvantages as others have mentioned like sun in the eyes (can't complain because that's life and good milsim warriors fight through thing like that) everything was great.
Highlight of the day for me was when Sniperwolf and his other Tan buddy, sorry I can't remember his name though, slowly moved across the creek into the village as the green team were distracted. Having been killed and only minutes left in the game I just elected to stay with my team instead of heading back to respawn I had a vantage point that I could see the tan movement. I so desparately wanted to scream out, "THEY ARE 15 YARDS AWAY, JSUT PEEK AROUND THE CORNER AND SEE THEM!" but dead men tell no tales so I kept my mouth shut. HAd the game not ended that encounter between two sneaky tan guys would have gotten the jump on at least four distracted green guys and that would have been fun to see.
Second best highlight was when green squad started up the hill east of the airfield only to be ambushed by the Tan set up in perfect position. I was proud to have been killed by such worthy warriors.
I will be back to another event by Canto. Good times.

Great game. It was very muddy and wet where I was, but it was worth it. Here is some pictures I took with my Iphone. imageshack.us/g/14/1911n.jpg/They are not the best, and some are pointless, but you can pick out whatever you want. I got some green and tan team guys in the pictures. |

Thanks canto it was a great event. I was the EOD that was talked about and it was so fun disarming and planting IEDS. I was with the DAMAGE INC. guys and they were some of the best player out there.

Thank you green team and especially our command bulldogs. You guys were all amazing. It's so nice for command to actually appreciate and use the information our sniper team was giving. That made the 1.5 hour long trek through the valley worth it!
And a hat tip to my partner, Reconn337/blackout for all the great work we were able to do on the battlefield.

Just wanted to say that I had a great time playing at this game and that I was truly impressed with green team's communication and leadership through the whole game. I agree as well with Shadow that having the information we relayed actually put to use was extremely satisfying. Can't wait to play with you guys again!
Also right back at you Shadow. We did fantastic work and I can't wait to do it again!

Really great event to come out from Chicago on this one. It was great to see all my buddies and meet new friends again. As for the game is is this simple. TAN got owned 1st round cause of the numbers. COme 2nd round we got ourselves together to make a come back happen and ONLY lose by 3 objectives, compared to lets say 6. Green did a great job. Esp. all those saw gunners........you suck. Great event Canto. And I always say it. JAGER! PICTURES! AHHHH!!!! |

As always, great event Canto.
I do have to apologize for leaving after lunch, but I had prior arrangements for the evening that I had to attend.
I have to say, that even though we were outnumbered, good job overall by everyone! There were times where I had some very good firefights with some members of the green team, and saw some amazing shots out there by everyone! I thought the objectives were well done, and thought of.
My favorite highlight of the day, was the fantastic Attack plan that green had on the airfield at the beginning of the game. I had about 6 or 7 tan with me in the airfield, and only saw the 2 at the edge of the field and we were engaging them, and then all of a sudden, I heard what sounded like a stampede coming at us, rounded the corner, and saw what appeared to be 100 Green guys coming at us! Ok, more like 12 or 13, but still was great! Was a quick firefight, with us tan of course losing the airfield, but as we went to respawn, we only had to wait for about 2-3 minutes until the clock hit the respawn mark on the clock, and then we came back with a vengence setting up a very nice ambush from the top of the ridge. Excellent execution to all the tan members that followed my lead to successfully clear the airfield, and gain it back. I think we seriously surprised the few green that crawled up and poked their heads up over the hill to see 8 of us ready for them.
All in all, great game, and fantastic game play on both sides!! It was great seeing you all again, and making my return to the game a great time!!! Till the next time we meet on field, take care everyone!

I too am sorry I had to leave right after lunch but just like Grimm, I as well had prior engagements. What were these engagements? I honestly don't know, whatever Grimm's prior engagements were were also mine...he was the one who drove! ;D
But yeah, huge thanks to Canto for hosting this!
I had an absolute blast for the few hours I was actually out there playing. Sure we were outnumbered and green seemed to be giving us quite a good thrashing the entire time but I've got no complaints whatsoever. I came out to shoot at kids in the woods and gosh dang it that's exactly what I did! No regrets here.
And like always it was great meeting several of you guys and I hope to see you all at more events in the near future.
