Videos coming soon, still need to get the videos of my last event up busy, busy, busy!
After Action Report
We had about 22 people altogether, same as last time just different people. The owner of the field had done a lot of work since are last battle. He built a two story tower, which was really nice by the way. At this point are games are more just for fun then reenacting. Hopefully we'll get more serious over time but it will certainly take time.
The first two battles were just attack and defend the tower. Germans got to defend first then the Allies. Whoever had the tower won coincidentally ;D
It was very hard to take out the tower. The defenders had a great view on everyone attacking from all sides. There were also more defences built around the tower making things even more difficult. The only way to get close was to belly crawl through the taller parts of the grass. I tried this but as soon as I ran out to find cover at one of the defences I was shot down.
Overall I'd say we need much, much more squad teamwork. Maybe a training session would help things a bit.
We also tried having both teams rush in from either side of the defenses having a sort of face off. One of the sides of the defenses was stronger then the other, so which ever team got the better side won for the most part. We restricted the tower for these battles.
We also tried a prisoner exchange which was quite fun.
The owner of the field provided dinner free of charge, which was very good as always.
My Kar98 broke down, I believe I had accedently installed broken parts from a different gun in it so I had to farb out and use my friend's Thompson. I have to say though it was nice using an AEG for a change.
Overall I had a fun time. Things to improve for the future are team-work, and as always authenticity.
Excuse the Nazi armbands, I will try to get my uncle to remove them next time.
Don't be too harsh I know we are very Flaggrantly Wrong and young but keep in mind this is being run by a 16 year old ;D
