And one is colored.

Maybe we should change OP-FOR to Spetznaz haha all this damn snow...

[slippy]

Hey Mosin I'll step up and take the squad four lead for OP-For.

[Mirage]

Alright guys, we're a day away. Couple reminders; charge your radios. Charge your batteries. Pack extra socks. Load your mags tonight. Be on time.

Bring good attitudes gents, we have a fun one for you.

[Viper]

SL's make sure you have radio's. And I'm going to deviate from RAGE's comm plan slightly in how I'm setting it up.

SL's will be on Channel 5 with myself and my XO. This will not be "general chat"! Keep your general "There is a schmuck over there" comments in your squad channels.

Squad 1 - Channel 6 - SL: Deathdealer
Squad 2&3 - Channel 7 - SL: ?
Squad 4 - Channel 11 - SL: Slippy
Squad 5 - Channel 12 - SL: Novak
Squad 6 - Channel 13 - SL: bnagley


Be prepared! Maps, radios, batteries, clothing, etc... This is a MilSim and RAGE puts a ton of time into these. Don't be that guy who disappoints them! It makes Blindshot sad. Seriously, he cries.

I'll be coming with Ghast as a civilian. Contact Timm for payment please sirs.

Yes, it is grey. Although, I made some changes to the source image. I changed all the red text to white and the orange box is white too I think. When you print the map in greyscale is makes it really hard to read certain parts of it.

To help educate auzzie, some people use the terms greyscale and black and white interchangeably. Technically black and white images are only black and white and greyscale usually has 255 shades of grey (Assuming 24/32 bit color).

So, I found what may be an old printable Waiver form.

Would that be a solution?

[auzzie]

I meant would the resultion be any different between the two? I have a black and white printer.

[X]

... no, the resolution will be the same.

Printed it black and white, and it was good to go.
I can't read some of the small lettering, but other than that it's OK,

Looking forward to this one, like a lot.

My +1 will not be able to attend. Family emergency. However, I will definitely be there for this op tomorrow.

Sorry I can't find my greyscale modified version on my home PC. From what Puma said it doesn't turn out so bad so I guess I would just print it as is. I've attached the RAGE iCOM programming. Keep in mind this is for the 4011s. I'm not sure if the ICF file will work for the 4001. Also, a forewarning, I didn't bother testing it at all. I double checked the frequencies though and I'm 95% sure it's good to go. If someone has a working regular walkie talkie laying around they can test this with and report back that would be swell. Unfortunately, the last time I loaned out my talkabout it came back broke.

Unfortunately, when I got off of work, my supervisor told me I had to come in for OT at 6 am, Saturday. Unless something changes, I won't make it. Which sucks, I bought a new radio and printed put a ton of maps for Tan. Have fun fellas!

Sorry to hear that, d00d. You'll be missed, and so will the maps!

Does anyone have an extra air tube earpiece? I know it's a bit late notice, but I found my good throat mic minus the earpiece! I will pay, not looking for handouts.
