remember guys...im going to be going to my first TAW game.....ill be the only OCMI soldier there

ILL MAKE SURE TO REPRESENT.

big thanks goes out to team LOCKDOWN...they have generously extended there warm hands and allowed for myself and my girlfriend to share the shade underneath their easy ups...

furthermore, ill make sure to take piks and write a good article on taw events.

I dont have much paint to play on, so im going to be doing a lot of role playing rather than shooting....

take care guys............im sure youll have a GREAT time in fresno..........wished I could have been there with ya.

Ponch, I'm sure that game is going to be a blast... if it were only a 2 day event..

Have fun and give us a good AAR.

Good luck Ponch.

Definitely let us know how the game goes.

So how was it, Ponch?

sorry Its taken so long...I have been on the move this ENTIRE week moving into my new place and training for my new job.


SO

without further to do.................Operation Urban Disturbance.


location: Travis AirForce ­base­
Number of players: 250
1 DAY EVENT

im going to try and divive this my categories........lets begin with TAW


TAW (as a whole)

AMAZING....AND I MEAN AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE.......the moment that Damian (producer) and Shelly (co-producer) learned of my presence and whom I represent, they immedietly made it there mission to aquaint myself with TAW. Damian gave me a personal tour of EVERYTHING, from the field, to the potter potties.....He showed me air wolf which I will explain in the air category....Damian was EXTREMELY informative and treated me like a person that has known him for years...........constantly checking if everything was allright with myself and MY GIRLFRIEND, who had no connection towards the game whatso ever....he constantly was checking to see if she was comfortable etc......


Registration: LIGHTNING FAST!!!.........I did my check-in in 10 minutes thats including paint and air. they had EVERYTHING ready to go......and for those walk ons......CHECK THIS!!! they had debit/credit ready to goand it was quick as heck!....my player packet came with the usual, map, player ID, paint tickes, air tickets, receipt and player booklet with de­script­ion of the games story and your character.

AIR: two words "air-wolf".............air wolf is a mobile compressed air fill station that is capable of filling 12.......THATS 12 PLAYERS AT THE SAME TIME WHILE PROVIDING CONSTANT PRESSURE.

6 stations for 3000 psi..........and 6 stations for 4500 PSI.......what i mean by constant is........and they have TESTED THIS FACT........having all 12 players lined up and fill at the same time........air wolf was able to fill all tanks in a matter of 5.8 seconds...6.2 for 4500 psi.....A SYSTEM THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN BUT WAS INCREDIBLY IMPRESSED WITH....theres nothing like it out there.


paint: TAW does not...and I repeat DOES NOT....use Karnage Bite........DAMIAN himself explained to me the facts of how shitty bite is.........with that, ALL players are sold karnage tear (premium) at $55 dollars a case........and $65 for Karnage RIP which is TOURNAMENT grade paint........my paint shot GREAT all weekend..........the BIG SHOT BARREL HAD A GREAT TIME USING THAT STUFF.....I strongly recommend tear from RIP becauce RIP seems to be VERY picky when it comes to barrels.

TRAVIS FIELD: C.......Q..........B...........HEAVEN!!!!! THERE WERE TWISTS AND TURNS AND ADRENALINE RUSHES ALL DAY!!!!..........i have never felt the type of adrenaline rush of a player possibly being around the corner or hiding in some dark closet just waiting for me to come around and have the pleasure to capture me or visa versa.

although, I do have complaints that there was a lot of bonus balling and I personally have never been bruised at a game as much as I did for this one...............i took in a total of 37 bruises on my body which is UNACCEPTABLE and I was sure to let damian know of this........the field although has no part in this other than its angles and the way that it was contructed.........its CQB...i imagine thats how its played.

the players: genually, they were great and VERY enthustiastic........I had many players come up to me and shake my hand and acknowledge a great move on my part to eliminate them............but I also had many players flip the bird on me for having embarrassed them so badly as to barrel tap them 3!!! TIMES IN A FIREFIGHT AFTER HAVING REINSTERTED TWO TIMES..........I found it hilarious....

overall: I had a GREAT!! time.............although this wasnt the BEST event that I have been to...............REASON FOR IT WAS THAT IM USED TO HAVING SOMEONE COVER MY BACK......and not having my team there for that purpose really put a downpour on my enthuasiasm.....and I imagine is another reason why I came home with 3 TIMES AS MUCH WELTS as I usually do..

honestly, this weekend really taught me how IMPORTANT it is to have one of my friends and brothers of OCMI wathcing my back............having at least 2 more OCMI guys out there with me would have been a HUUUUUGE advantage........


the next event at travis airforce ­base­ will be in NOVEMBER........and it is being ­title­d "CALL OF DUTY" ................Damian is currently in the words to have it become a 2 day event.............I plan on being there either way....


thats about it..

TAKE CARE BROS!!!
