Nice event guys. TF:Z enjoyed ourselves - we would have been happy with a little less down time. While the individual briefing for each team was nice - it did take up a lot of time. We liked the de-brief better as we are always looking to improve our skills and wish we could have had more input from Gunny and crew. I really appreciated the actors they were great to have and I liked getting the information from them at the end of the 1st session.
I think EATF and TF:Z would have liked to see the last session go for at least another 10-15 minutes. It was just getting good when all the lights went out and I would have enjoyed seeing how long we could have lasted! I think we had our buildings pretty nailed down, most of us hadn't gone through more then 1 mag! There was a lot more plastic death to deal that day.
Now for the bad news, on the way home right after getting off the Freeway I rear ended a car who was stopped in the middle of the road. Luckily I was able to break right and did not hit the car square but it still pretty much totaled my car. It actually looked like my car took a bite out of the other car as it's back bumper and side panel was wedged between my hood and bump (displacing the headlight into the radiator). The road was completely black and it was pissing rain. They didn't have their brakes or a turn signal on and by the time I realized they were at a dead stop I only had about 40 feet to stop. No one was hurt but it looks like I will be looking for new car.
Lastly, I extened a special offer to any players from the CQC event to the Half-life LAN Party and Airsoft event up at NWTactical this Friday night. $25 self-equipped will get you in the door. For you computer geeks we will have several developers from Valve at the party including Mihn Le - creator of Counter Strike. The event is 6pm - 6am and is a great way to try out NW Tactical. Drop me an email (
hellmutt@battlesim.com) or call NWT to RSVP. We have a player cap on the event and a few spots still available.
