Anybody in California, north of San Francisco? I'm an occasional airsofter, wouldn't mind shifting more towards WWII re-enactment. I've got the TM M1A1 Thompson, thinking about building a Garand. Also parts of a GI impression.

I tried to get a WWII theme game going for November on another forum (which is now pretty much dead). No response. But I did just get a response from a guy on Norcal Airsoft.
Want to try and set up a game for late January and see if we get any takers. Historically that fits with the German Operation Nordwind, the last German offensive in the West, in January 1945 through the Vosges Mountains.
My plan for the November game was to hold it at Boggs Mountain State Forest. It's got decent terrin and the administrators have been pretty accomodating in the past.

Talking to a friend of mine in Oakland. He's interested in getting a Gebirgsjaeger unit together, if there's anyone interested.

On Sat. Dec. 20 the Cimmerians are holding their annual Battle of the Bulge re-enactment. It's up I-80, east of Auburn. www.cimmerians.org/(they do have a minimum age limit though. I think it's 18)

Also, On Sun. Dec. 21 some of us are trying to organize a WWII theme skirmish at Boggs Mtn. State Forest. We're trying to get enough people together for a squad on squad (squad on gruppe) fight to capture a bunker and launch counterattacks if it falls. Boggs is about an hour north of Napa, Calif. airsoftrecon.org/forum/*** This one is up in the air for now.

We have a fast growing ww2 group out of Sacramento. Not quite Bay Area, however it's not that far either. We have both a 101st unit and a 12th SS unit. If your interested... come check it out. www.sacairsoft.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,40/page,viewforum/f,53/

Definitely maybe. I haven't been real encouraged by the underwhelming response.
