Hey hey, so someone at work asked if they could have my Sunday shift and as there was a game on of course I said yes. So Sunday morning I headed out to our killmog field (on the Killmog highway) and meet the guys. Started the day off with introductions for the 3 new guys who were there, after that we all got geared up and went off with initiation. I took the new guys out and showed them the general area and got them set up in a ambush that i new wouldn't work and then we waited for the others too come looking for us. Didn't take long for the 4 of us to be taken out. After that was out of the way we sent everyone away into the bush except us on the Murihiku Toa team (this is the team that i was at training with). And then went on the hunt. We looked very cool all dressed in the same camo. We did that for awhile and then got rather bored so we set up a game of VC which went for a long time and a few of the new guys got a bit frustrated with it. So we stopped again and started virus which went really well. After virus halo left and we played a game of pilot down which went really fast and then we sat down and thought up a new game which went along the basis of pilot down but we split into lots of two or three man teams. And it was whoever had the pilot the longest. After the first game in which there was some confusion we started again with some refinement to the rules and it was a lot of fun. Kronos gave me a nice red mark on my ass where he shot me when I thought I was well hidden behind a tree. Oh and another awesome moment that I just remembered and I give full credit to Kronos for pulling it off was him running up the middle of my whole team during the VC game then knife killing me (while scaring the crap out of me) then diving off the side of the bank falling about 3m down to the creek and disappearing back into the bush while everyone looked around with very confused looks on their faces wondering what the hell just happened. After that last game we packed up and sorted out whats happening for next weekend. We are going up to Timaru on Saturday to play their newly setup team on their newly setup field. Will be a good day hopefully. Its good to be moving into summer time as well, bring on the good weather.
Will update when I get back from Timaru.

training
Just got home from training. It was a good day. It was overcast and on the verge of raining but it held back until we finished. We were training on one of halos friends farms which is about 5 mins out of Dunedin no bushland, just open field on a hill. We started the day off with patrol techniques and practiced what to do when coming into contact. First off we needed a enemy which I volunteered to be. I had two mins to go down the hill a bit and get ready. We weren't doing anything serious still had too call your hits and if hit you were dead. We were more focusing on the techniques than shooting each other. It was also a good time to take the m4 for a spin.
As they came over the ridge I opened up. First thing I noticed. My m4 shoots dam straight. Second thing I noticed. I can out shoot everyone but Halo and Kronos. (kronos is the teams sniper.) 3rd thing we all noticed. 8 shots 5 kills and I win, much to the shocked faces the other guys had. They then had a weee moan about my m4 shooting too perfectly. Then they all had a play with it and fell in love with it. I am expecting a few more g&p m4s to turn up with the team in the next few weeks. All that aside we gave patrolling a few more goes swapping around and got the hang doing it properly. (Halo bought a copy of the training manual for the NZ SAS and we worked on the techniques from it.) After patrolling we did some practice of approaching a civilian and talking to them and getting info from them and checking to see if they were hostile. We had to practice this as in the big events coming up there will be unarmed and armed civilians running around. Was quite funny and there was quite a bit of sheep poo thrown from guys with fake accents, was very fun. After we had finished clowning around we practiced taking someone prisoner and lucky me, the guys got revenge for me slaughtering them in the first exercise i was "volunteered" to be the prisoner as you will see in a couple of the pics. After that we did some target practice and then had a photo shoot. (photos to come) then we just mucked around for about 2 hours which involved shooting distant trees, shooting each other for no reason, sliding down the damp hill, having a good chat about airsoft and putting our guns through the chronograph (pistol averages about 270 fps and m4 is about 375 fps) pistol is about right and m4 is a wee bit high but halo and drop it down if need be.
Then it was home time, all in all a good day. I will put up pictures when halo puts them up and i can steal them.
I don't have a game for a while the rest of the team is going to chch this weekend for a game which may or may not be on due to the earthquake. Most probably next game will be when we go up to chch first weekend of october. Will write something soon when the rest of my stuff arrives because its in chch at the moment and has been delayed a couple of days due once again to the earthquake.
