Next Open Game?

[Pantsm]

Hi there.

I'm interested in coming down with my wife and a few friends to the next open game.  When and where is it?  I don't have any gear so would need to hire some, how do I organize that? 

Cheers

Martyn

Hi Martyn

Next one is 8/11/2014

If you let us know the exact number of people in advance we will organize rentals and gear for you

Welcome to ASA

Thanks Fang!

I will confirm numbers by next week hopefully and get back to you.  Where is it being held?

Disregard the above post just found the Open Games Forum.

Are there any weekly training games that go over the basics of military training and give people team tactics, weapon handling and markmanship?  I've never been in the military so it would be nice to get a basic grounding in that kind of thing.

I've seen that The Armory has courses but they are a bit out of my price range.

Welcome!

We don't have weekly training events like that, no basic military training and tactics are required for airsoft. Just come along and give it a go, we'll run you through how to use the guns and the basics of airsoft. Our open games are all about having fun, requiring people to be all hardout military in their first game probably wouldn't work so well!

If you did want to get into that though, we have a team based military simulation league called NOMAD. This runs once a month and has more in depth scenarios and requires more team based tactical play.

Hope to see you at a game soon, as Fang said just let us know the number of rentals required and we'll sort you out!

Cool! 

Also do you guys have a link to a map to the H2 field?  I know it's on Tuparekura road somewhere but I'm not exactly sure where.

Its at the end of Tuparekura Rd, theres a paved driveway that leads to a gate, the field is beyond this gate.


Parking

Once there do not park along the grass verges between the small stone pillars and the gate to the field 350m beyond them. Either park on the asphalt road (ending in the circular area) or actually inside the field playing area on the grass field, just past the gate.

[Pantsm]

Sweet, we'll hopefully find it without any problems.

Hey all!

My wife and I are definitely coming next weekend, but we'll need rental gear and won't be able to stay longer than 12pm due to family commitments.  Will that be a problem?

[karanadon]

Hi, You sure can come just until 12 but you'll only be getting about 2 hours of gaming in? Maybe less?

If you still want to come then post up in the induction thread and we can reserve some rental guns for you.

[Pantsm]

That's fine, will post in the induction thread.

Cheers!
