For those of you who have registered and not paid for the operation yet, we would greatly appreciate your payment in advance if possible.

The reason for this request is so that we may implement even more exciting features in the facility to make sure you have a great experience and want to come back!

Thank you for your patronage.

Well everythings going well on my part so far in relation to getting the gear I need. One question though....Which would be best to have? Black BDU's or Black/Grey/White ones? Just want to see what other peoples opnion might be. Oh and I sent my money order in, so you should get my payment soon.

OP: Falling Star will be entirely indoors. BDU choice is up to you, but I'd recommend black/navy blue.

Or just street clothes, if you're playing a lawbreaker.

What about the status of rentals? Are or will there be any available?

In either case: If anyone has a Classic Army M15A4 Carbine or a Tokyo Marui M4A1 avail and would like to make some money leave me an message.

Looking for one that shoots about 320.

Also need one 300 round mag or higher, 9.6 or 10.8 battery 1000 or higher.

(sorry I meant 10.8)

Good luck to you finding someone who'll let you run a 10.4v in one of their guns.

Good luck finding a 10.4V battery

The next step up from 9.6 is 10.8, and really, it's completely unnecessary. 9.6 is as much as you'll ever need in an AEG, save situations where people wish to have 500+ semi-auto AEG sniper rifles.

Hey, Mukappa or anyone else from my team (Paladin of the MAA, MN Airsoft Association) couldn't make it, except me. And another from the MAA of another team Prokat.

Yes, it is a long drive, Yes, we are crazy.

Hope to meet the organizers and other teams, it gets lonely in the great north woods over winter.

As for people asking about GBB's, I find that those little hand warmer packs happen to fit inbetween the mags and pistol grips if you are a crusher. Then they fire just fine.

One important addendum to the rules:

It's been kicked around on the Airsoft Ohio forums for a while (and I think was first suggested by Blade, but it's become apparent that we need to actually implement it. After having play-tested the site, it has become clear that ammo limitations are in order. As such, in the interests of both MilSim and safety, we will be limiting the amount of ammo that players may carry into the field to one of the following:

• one high-capacity magazine
  
• three mid-capacity magazines
  
• ten standard magazines
  
• twenty low-capacity STAR magazines
  

Players who have a mix of standard and STAR magazines may substitute 2 STAR mags for every standard mag that they give up. This will give everyone on the field between 300 and 600 rounds at any one time. It will encourage fire discipline, teamwork, and solid tactics, and will reduce overkill.

[Arc]

What's the call on midcaps?

[Munin]

Above post has been edited to include mid-caps

[Talisman]

What about pistol mags? As both sidearm and as primary?

I only have 2 standard mags, But I'd love to use standards only if I use my G36 - Can I carry my 2 standards + bb loader and/or extra bbs?

[DevilDog]

If I'm wrong, please clarify this for me....

Take my M4 for example, I can have...

1 Hi-Cap (300 to 450 rounds), or
10 Standard Mags (700 rounds), or
20 Star mags (600 rounds), or
3 Mid-Caps (around 450 rounds).

Why not just say, you can carry any combination that gets you to 600 - 700 rounds and avoid giving people who are carry Standards or Stars the advantage?

[Jacko]

I think the idea is that the advantage of having an extra 100-150 rounds is offset by having to actually take the mag out and put a new one in instead of winding every now and then.
