My brother just left the property and reported it was dry most of the day. Very little rain. Roads and wash are safely passable to vehicles with higher road clearance. The storms in September roughed up the dirt road pretty good, so take it easy and slow down.
Will 4WD or AWD be necessary, or can a FR drivetrain get through it?

Most vehicles will make it through even without 4wd or awd. Nissan Sentras are not most vehicles though. Good luck with that car...

I have decided to cave into the power of the wallet. You can bring your polarstar to the field. You just can't just shoot it, though  you can run around yelling "bang! bang!".

Just curious why you say no P*s. if there is a reason.  If there is none then just ignore my question.

So, same thing as every other pre-scripted event that I've helped you do as an OPFOR?

Intent of the Game

Rise of the Insurgents is intended to be war simulation game in which participants engage in role-playing various combative forces against each other.  The purpose of the game is to have fun and the outcome of the events are based soley on the participants actions and not a pre-planned outcome.  The game plot and scenarios have been provided to give participants a framework that they must choose to follow and to what extent.  We encourage the participants to engage in activities that woulld motivate the different factions in order to make the game flow as close to the plot as possible.

Using a far superior weapon in an event where no one else has one, just to destroy the competition, does not make for an enjoyable, safe event. I have to think about the 50 other guests. If everyone owned a polarstar, then the circumstances would be different. But they are not. And you sir don't get to dictate terms to an event that you did not write, you did not promote, you did not collaborate on, you did not support, you did not pay for, etc... and the next time you host an event on a parcel of land that you own, with 40,000 sq. feet of urban combat town that has taken 5 years to build, countless man hours, thousands of dollars, and countless years working just to provide a venue for your sarcastic little asinine joke of self-importance, you go ahead and tell me how to conduct my affairs.

Please tell me what say you now in all your infinite wisdom...

It's being rumored that battle belts and chest rigs are legal gear for the Syrian Army. I'd just conformation to this.

In all honesty, I tried to propose a valid argument about the physics about why they are safe, and you turned this into a childish argument where you made me look like a bad guy without addressing any of my completely valid points about the safety of polarstars and the lack of safety inherent with all airsoft weapon systems in one way or another.

I'm here to have fun, you're here to make money. Your lack of professionalism doesn't hurt me, Victor.

Also, it's only superior to poorly tuned Aegs most by metrics. Ask spazz, he can probably build an aeg as accurate as any of my polarstar setups fps for fps.


I didn't attempt to dictate your terms, however I have helped you host 5 events, for free, acting as OPFOR at events ranging from kids birthday parts to BHD to various other events, where your brother and you promised me that I would get a free admission to events of my choosing, an offer that I never cashed in on. I even offered to you in person before to help with construction at the last event that I helped you guys be an OPFOR for, again free of charge.

Events you got paid for, every single time.

I've also been around long enough to have participated or known the parties involved when HWG / MTT / "The Island" allegedly stole SWPBD property to build the first version of "The Island", your field.

Never saw him say you couldn't, just said you cant use your p*. we saw someone turn up there p* at your game earlier this year. If you can change a AEG's fps as quick as a p* ill give you my complete convection until then I call BS . Even with a quick change spring it still takes a minuet or two. Looking at it from a business standpoint and liability point of view I have to side with victor. and Really you called him out saying he not professional. Please show me where because if your saying this because of the fact you cant use your p* , that makes you no better then the wining kids at vanguard.

Where did he say its pre scripted? I would really like to see this.
