Thats why she said yes, because either way you can't go.

Actually, she said yes before I told her the date...

So what I gather from this is that for 300 people, it's going to be a massive clusterfuck.


If they try to focus solely on the MOUT site, yes.

If they were do use the North end, 300 people would fit easily. At least from what I remember. However, the north end is just forest. Personally, I liked it more than the MOUT end after about the 3rd time down there.

From what I remember, the village is about 12-20 buildings, with one centered city block, and a few buildings around it.

In Army planning, you would take this village with a company or no more than 150 people. If there are 150 people also inside the village, that would require vehicles and phaselines and all sorts of planning.

I think the village could hold 250 people, but it would be a very bloody place to be. Even on semi auto.

So I've read the forum link and I don't know if I'm not understanding but are only alumni players are going to be aloud to play? There are so many Ops I want to attend and I'm still trying to get my gear ready. I live right across the bridge from the camp and it would be awesome if I could attend. For this being the first LionClaws event in the PNW I really want to go.

Usually they open alumni registration first, then after a few days it's open to the public. They've never hosted in Oregon, so I don't imagine that the alumni would fill up the game. I would assume there's going to be plenty of open slots.

Yeah that's what I figured but I wasn't sure if APST was going to get slots that you could fill up.

I got the beach house in seaside approved for use. Just waiting to see how much this is gonna cost me. Here's hoping to less than $100 with a LC event Alumni discount.

Hey Rick, how do you prove that your a Lion Claws Alumni? I was there in california in 08 and I never had to sign up because I was with a team I no longer talk to.

If you went to LC VII (2008) your name should be in a database of all those who have ever attended an LC event. Matt went to LC III and had no problem getting the LC veteran discount.
