If you can bring some thin fishing line, wooden pegs, some 9volt batteries ( the small square ones and some wooden stakes (like tent pegs :) that would be great and then you can see how to assemble them :) I will order some electric pyro for you to use :)

Yes clothes pegs that no man has any idea of what they are for other than making trip wires out of :) forgot to mention if you have any 2 core cable bring it along, this should be very flexible and as long as possible :)

2 core being standard electric cable for plugs and things?

Also I may well be buying it so how long is 'as long as possible', 50 meters looks cheap enough?

Ooo, this is starting to get me real excited. Right squad organisation and such.

After using a screwdriver, 2nd grade advanced manliness, the MP40 is no longer temperamental. Hurrah! I also have some binoculars en route, an SAS Beret and a nice map case for, well holding a map.

Webbing order for this should be rather lax. As we are four infiltrators and not a field company you can wear the webbing how you find it most comfortable and convenient. Historically we shouldn't have any insignia that identifies us as Commandos or SAS, but meh so what if we do. As sneaking is the name of the game it might be an Idea to have a piece of headwear besides a Green/Maroon Beret such as a Helmet or Cap comforter.Though no problems if you do just have the Beret as we should be working less on a 'there's the Germans, lets creep around them and try not be seen' and more of a 'there's the Germans. Lets lie face down in this bush for 10 minutes until they get bored and move on.'
We will have a fair few (if not entirely) SMGs in our little band, which is good for who we are, and I would like to use them in a way that is somewhat correct to how they would have. lets avoid plinking single shots off at rifle armed Germans miles away and try our hands avoiding engagements until we assault with the ferocity of a damned ferocious thing.

Given that It might be an idea for people to plan on using some grenades and smoke, though we do not all need to have a couple of 'em, it would be nice if we did.

Hand signals. - I'll check for some period Brit ones that we can run through on the Friday night/Sat morn but given our 'specialist' nature I think something slightly different would not be too bad (to what platoon commanders on the battle line would be using), KISS is the acronym I think. No need to complicate things with the unwarranted.

I'll look towards getting a bag for our tripwire explosives and such which can be shared out similar to the medic bag and, speaking of which, I'll get a few of those FFD's from webby so we can have some nice big bloodied bandages to wrap around people's faces. :good:

Right, that's all I can think of for now, best get back to boring work. :evil:

I just ordered a popper book on British Webbing that will tell me, I hope, what kind of carrying devices were used by the Engineers so we can see what we can knock together.

We move too quick for foxholes, we'll just mow em all down with Webby's MG then run past the bodies whooping and hollaring whilst shooting our guns in the air.

On another note: I have a brown beret which is going spare for a fiver if there's any Brits who want/need it. Let me know and I'll bring it with me.

one for the Brit SSCS ( Super Special Commando Squad ), how many of you will be bringing Denison smocks and how are you with Cam and Conceilment drills, the hand signals should not be too much of a problem, I have some paperwork with modern ones on if need be.

Any Idea what the ammo limit will be, if it is as per CIA rules then it has dropped to 300rnds per rifleman?

I'll have a MK4/MK5 scrimmed helmet along with me but will get something else for stealth work.

One new shiny Denison. :good:

I would imagine the ammo limit will be 600 rds still, though we'll find out soon enough I'm sure. Shoudln't be a problem. If we fire 600 rounds chances are we've titted something up big time anyway.

The 300 was for PBI game, and associated 'roleplay' type events. I love it, but I think it's be 600 still.

Cam/Con? Meh, I know the basics that most people know, but Scaley's gonna teach us more on the yank training day. So I'll know more then. Though standing orders = 'if in doubt lie down in a bush, cover yourself with leaves and stay very quiet and still till the enemy leaves' should about cover it.

Hand signals I'm gonna get Yith to show us some WWII ones, and I'm sure we can work out something usable on Friday.

Plus we will have 2 M1 Garand rifles with us now, so that should be good.-- attachment is not available --

Nice pic there.

Ammo limits are as per CiA rules but I'm not sure whether you having to pick up an ammo drop has been included in the scenario or not. You'll have to see ooooooooo!
