OP: West Wing Sunday Jan 27 *Registration Open

[AAMike]

Operation: West Wing commemorates one of the opening battles of Operation Iraqi Freedom that was fought by a sole platoon of US Army Rangers.  The rangers were assigned to destroy a number of SCUD launchers that were positioned near the border of Jordan.  It is believed that Saddam Hussein intended to launch missiles into Israel when the United States invaded Iraq.  The Ranger platoon entered Iraq from a secret base in Jordan called the West Wing and successfully assaulted and destroyed their targets after an intense 4 hour battle.

[SkeptikZ]

My friend wants to check this event out (not participate) do you know if theres any charge for spectators? also was wondering what the usual number of participants for this event is?

[AAMike]

Thanks for your question about spectators at the event.  We do authorize spectators in certain areas of the event that don't interfere with the action.

If you are interested in coming out to spectate, please send me a private message to coordinate your visit.  Directions to the event will only be provided to registered guests and players.

The current player totals have been updated on the post above (just short of 30 players.)  With a couple more weeks left before the event, OP: West Wing should have at least 50 players.  There are 75 spaces open for the event.

In other event news, Never Quit Industries will be providing OP: West Wing players with a free sample of ASAP meal replacement at the game.  For those who would like to purchase boxes of 20 packages, they will be available for $40 per box.  These normally retail for $60 per box.

Visit www.nqinutrition.com for more info about ASAP meal replacements.  They are great for all types of tactical, outdoor, and emergency situations.

[Firebert]

for general directions.  

The nearest major cross streets are 383rd Avenue and Elliot Road.

So is this in LA or Phoenix?

[AMERICAN CONFLICT]

hay i just signed-up at gearbox. but is the simulation games on sat. required for the game the next day.

[AAMike]

I have received a few questions about the Saturday missions.  Players do not have to attend the games or camp out on Saturday, Jan. 26.

The events on Saturday are designed to give players a chance to get to know some of their team mates, field layout, and have an extra day of fun.

Currently, there are about 12 to 15 players who will be camping out and playing at the games on Saturday.  The event will start at about 2 pm and last until about 10 pm on the 26th.

Don't forget that early registration ($40) closes on Jan. 20th.  After the 20th, registration for the game will be $60 per player.

As for the location, 383rd Avenue may seem far.  However, since the trip is almost all highway driving,it is only 1 hour (55 miles) outside of Phoenix.  

Let me know if you have any other questions.

[FIRST PREDATOR]

will i be geting an e-mail about the game rules and the location of this place?
