Drug Wars: Columbia
Brought to you by BTRairsoft.com

---

The drug trade in Columbia is getting bigger then it can handle. The mythical devil, Pablo Estevez, has grown his cocaine operation to max capacity and is demanding that his men expand. He will not take no for an answer. His endless blood-lust for power is growing out of control. He has slaughtered his competition to the east and pounded his own cousin from the west into submission. Taking control of everything except the north, Pablo Estevez has now set his sights on the only land left, the pot fields controlled by Diego Delgado to the north. Diego Delgado refuses to fall like all the others before him; he will defend his pot fields until the last man of his crew lays slain by the ruthless Pablo Estevez.

There are rumors that Pablo Estevez may not even exist; that his relentless power and control is too strong to be done by just one man. Thus posing the question, "Does Pablo Estevez really exist?" The people of the jungle call him a myth, a devil, full of magic and hatred. The more land taken by the cocaine trade the bigger Pablo Estevez's legend grows. The people of Columbia don't even speak his name for fear of the ultimate punishment...death.

The pot fields and villages to the north have been attacked numerous times before. This isn't the first time Diego Delgado has had to take up arms to defend his prosperous cash crop, and it likely won't be the last. Diego Delgado is a beloved and just man in Columbia. He has earned the respect of the people of the north by helping defend, clothe and feed them. It has been said that he cares just as much about the welfare of the local villages as he does about his pot fields. Diego Delgado may speak softly, but he carries with him a mighty big stick.

Who will win this epic land battle? Does Pablo Estevez even exist? And if so, will he make an appearance? Is Diego Delgado as caring of a person as everyone says he is? What side will you help - the ruthless power hungry cocaine trade of Pablo Estevez; or the gentle giant pot dealer of Diego Delgado? All of these questions and more will be answered during "Drug Wars Columbia" on Saturday August 31st.

1.0 - 340.9 fps : Arms length engagement limit
341.0 - 400.9 fps : 20 foot engagement limit
401.0 - 540.9 fps : 50 foot engagement limit, bolt action or permanent * semi-auto replicas only
541.0+ fps : Prohibited

Spawns:
Every 10 minutes

Ammunition:
1 Highcap Magazine (131Rds+)
Unlimited Midcap and Lowercap Magazines (130Rds and under)
1 Box Magazine allowed on only designated support class weapons

Medics:
Each player will have the ability to medic other players. In order to be healed, you will need to carry a 2"x16" piece of white cloth that can be tied around one's arm. Players can only be healed once; after being healed once and killed for a second time, the player must go back to respawn, allowing him to re-enter the game and to take off the medic strip. If a player does not have a medic strip, other players are allowed to use their own medic strip to heal another player. Keep in mind though, the player you heal with your own strip will have to keep it on until he/she is re-spawned; do so at your own risk.

For Example:
Player A is hit and has not used his medic strip. He takes out his kill rag to signify that he's been hit and has a bleed out time (bleed out time will be determined the day of the event).

Player B comes by and see's that player A is bleeding out. Player B goes Rambo style on everyone in the area and gets to player A. Player B yells in a calm but demanding voice, "Give me your medic strip".

Player A hands player B his medic strip and player B begins tying the medic strip around one of player A's arms. Once the medic strip is completely tied on, player A is now allowed to pocket his kill rag and re-engage.

A short time later player A and player B go off by themselves and both players are hit by opposing forces. Both players pull out their kill rags and player B begins his bleed out time. Because player A already has a medic strip on his arm, he can not be healed and must go back to respawn.

Player B must wait for somebody nearby to heal him. If no one is around, Player B finishes his bleed out time and then heads back to respawn.

Both players arrive back to respawn a short time later and wait for the next respawn time. Player A is now allowed to take off his medic strip and pocket it for his next death.

Good to see you post this hunt. I'm going to throw a link up on my groups page and you can expect to see a few of us there.

Unoriginal, but it works

Edit: 1 highcap?
My 'midcaps' are 140 rounds, and that's all I have... Is there any way to have more than 1?

[hunt81]

We want to keep things a little more realistic there for we are trying I encourage more players to use mid and low cap magazines vs highcap. There are a lot of events that do the same system and we are going to stick with it. Sorry if we disappoint anybody but we hope everyone can understand. It's not a lot of fun for a midcap player to go up against somebody with multiple highcaps because they clearly have the ability to put a ton of rounds down range with out having to reload very often. Mid and low cap magazines make people to have to maneuver, buggy out, take cover to reload and many other battle like decisions. Thanks for understanding.

Add Priceline +2 for woodland/Pablo Estevez. Love this field and all the events that have been hosted here have been great!

I just got midcaps that hold 190 rounds because the mid-cap limit for Op: Northern Light is 200 rounds. In fact if you look at a majority of the milsims in MI for this year, let alone the last 2, you'll find that ammunition is generally limited by bb count. For example Ops: Firestorm III, Geronimo and New Hope all limit ammunition by number of bbs not magazines.
 
Limits vary from Op to Op, but  Op: Firestorm III's ammunition limits are as follows:

Standard Rifles and Submachine Guns
- 1,000 rounds in any configuration.

Support Weapons, Heavy Machine Guns, and SAWs.
- 2,500 rounds in any configuration.

Sniper Rifles
- 500 rounds in any configuration.

I'm not trying to say it's the only way, but it is probably the framework that most of us have built our load-outs around.

I think the issue here is that high caps are defined as mags with >130 bbs. Typically they are defined as winding magazines.

Why don't you just load the midcaps to only 130 rounds? I think underloading the magazines would comply with the spirit of the rule even if technically they could hold more. Personally, I think setting a rounds per mag limit is abnormal, but a good idea none the less. These midcaps are getting closer and closer to highcap capacities. So long as players are allowed to underload the mags to comply with the rule, I don't see an issue.

I don't agree with exclusively using total round limits for MILSIM. A person could just carry 1 box mag or 3 highcaps which is not even remotely realistic. When used in combination with restrictions on magazine types though I think that it's a good idea. I think by any configuration they are talking about secondary/primary ammo.

I would say try not to pack your mid caps if they can hold close to 200 and keep them close to the 130bb count. We are mostly concerned about people carrying multiple highcaps. 190 is high for a midcap but don't worry about it. Just come and enjoy the event. We are going to have a blast!!

Hey Hunt,

How big is splatmandu? I saw you guys at Sherwood Forest and had a blast with you all, but I can't find anything about this fields size. I'm concerned because I run 450 fps dmr and want to make sure I have room for engagement distances. I don't want any one hurt by my rifle, and of course I use the common sense to pull my pistol when I question anything.

[Simon]

22 acres. You will be fine, I ran my 550fps sniper rifle the last even there.

[echo5]

Myself + 3 will be there. We will pay the day of. Mary Jane team.

[hunt81]

Splatmandu is right around 22 acres so sniper rifles shooting 450-550 FPS should have plenty of distance at times to shoot. This biggest problem can be the attending numbers. If there are around 200+ players it becomes difficult as a sniper to find a location where there isn't another person right on top of you, allowing you to get the distance shots your looking for.

It's hard to say what kind of numbers we are expecting but I would always recommend for any sniper at any field bring a back up rifle just in case you aren't able to play a true sniper roll if that's what your intending.

[PricelineNegotiator]

Any roster?

[Gimpalong]

I'll echo that.

I'm planning on attending, but I'd like to see a roster.

[PricelineNegotiator]

Pulling out. No sense in going if no one even responds.
