The new field is a work in progress so please bare with us if it's not up to par yet. This first game (and all games for that matter) we will encourage you all to provide as much positive and negative feedback as possible so we can adjust accordingly and make the field great! We are aiming to keep it as woodland based as possible. He plans on putting up a few structures but mostly this field will be all forest-warfare.


This field is wet. This field is dirty. This field will make you move a lot. So be prepared for all these things. There are also tons of bugs so be sure you bring plenty of bug spray!



Roster:
Flopper + Matrix Staff

Standard MiA rules.

[/u]: The following are the minimum distance engagement limits for airsoft replicas. This is the closest a player can engage another player with a replica rated in the following feet per second (fps) categories using full-auto, semi-auto, or single shot capability. See Article 16 for extremely close quarter player elimination.

As of April 24, 2009, these rules include a 10fps "tolerance zone". Players will be allowed onto the field if their weapons shoot up to 10.0 fps over the published limit.

OUTDOOR/OPEN FIELD ENGAGEMENT LIMITS
• 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 or allowed with permission of event organizer only

*Permanent semi-auto refers to replicas that do not have full-auto fire capability, no matter how the selector switch or other user input device is manipulated.

INDOOR/CLOSE QUARTER BATTLE (CQB)/ENCLOSED FIELD ENGAGEMENT LIMITS
• 1.0 - 340.9 fps – Arms length engagement limit


• 341.0+ fps – prohibited or allowed with permission of event organizer only

Engagement limits are based on averaged fps readings using .20 gram weight bb’s only. The method for acquiring an airsoft replica’s average fps is to fire multiple (more than 2) shots through a chronograph, record the readings, add the fps readings together and divide by the total number of readings.
Gas operated airsoft replicas should be chronographed using a “warm” ambient temperature gas supply (i.e. magazine), or with heating device functioning if used during the cold season.
No allowance is made for airsoft replicas that have an average reading close to the lower end of the next highest fps category. Example- if the replica has an average reading of 351.5 fps it falls within the 20 foot engagement limit.

Again, these rules include a 10fps "tolerance zone". Players will be allowed onto the field if their weapons shoot up to 10.0 fps over the published limit.

Just a bit of advice, if you hold games every week you end up spreading your attendance very thin which results in stuff like this. Make your events special. Once a month should do. Take a look at the SK games. Right now its the only game in town and its only done once a month and with over 100 in attendance every game, people make sure to get there because they know if they miss it, they'll have to wait another month.

I'd also advice getting some build days in for volunteers to come and improve the field. That way people will feel involved and invested into helping your field get to its potential.

Greg is currently building on the field as I'm posting this. He's constantly adding to his field. I'm just posting when he asks me to host a game. I'll pass this information on to him.
