Dammit - I forgot what day you said it was.
And could you post up the time and location too please?
Thursday 26th October.
The Spa Lane Vaults.
Its the Wetherspoons in Chesterfield on... can you guess it... Spa Lane!!
I suggest 7:30pm if you can make it... if anyone can't make it for 7:30pm then we can push the time back.
I'm sure that a couple of hours will be enough so we leave no later than 9:30pm.
There are a couple of tables with bench seats right at the back of the pub. We usually use those when having our wargaming club commitee meetings in that same pub...
Directions
Exit 29 of the M1.
Take the A617 towards Chesterfield.
Go under the railway bridge at the end of the dual carriageway and head straight across the first roundabout. (2nd exit)
Head straight across the 2nd roundabout as well (2nd exit, Kwik Fit on your left)
Head up through one set of traffic lights towards the crooked spire.
On the right at the next set of lights you can see the Spa Lane Vaults. (This is before you get to the crooked spire)
Turn right at these lights onto Spa Lane and park up in one of the many car parks around the back of the pub.
Note these car parks are all run by the Nazi (sorry I mean Liberal) Chesterfield Borough Council and now have a £1 night-time charge like all the car parks in Chesterfield.
LOL, I'll bring a pound to support the poor rate payers of Chesterfield! Thanks for info.
Thanks Yith for the directions , wil be there !
Take a butchers at this vid when you have a moment meine Mitsoldaten.

That's fuckin' awesome.
Jesus, that's a hell of a site they have there too!!
I like the idea of the flipchart breifing. And the use of accents and in-game commands in the correct language.
BTW, when I play airsoft, the BoB music is usually in my head! ;o) It's so evocative.
very nice indeed... a wonderful feel to it!
I liked the realistic calling for a medic, rather than the rather inane "hit" you normally hear . The guy really sounded like he was in pain .
Germans should be encouragerd to use "Sani" rather than Medic
'Sani' sounds a bit weak doesn't it! Bit like swearing 'poo' instead of 'shit'
But hey, that's reality - 'Sani' it is.
Screaming and shouting is going to be the order of the day I fancy - the more theatrical the better!
Sani is authentic - short for "Sanitatsgefreiter" closest thing to "medic" .
.......it does sound like you're calling for femine protection though
Shouting and screaming should be the order of the day . I reckon the more we do it the more other playes will feel encouraged .
Hilfe......Mutter.......Himmel ..SANI...Sheise !
all a lot better than "hit"
Is it al four of us this Thursday ? I appreciate Steve has furthest to travel ?
I will be there...
I just checked with Gadge. He can't get.
I haven't doublechecked with Major yet.
Unless I can get a meeting scheduled up that way I very much doubt it....
Sorry!
I'm still OK to go
Sound
I would like to go through V2 of the games, plus the rules . Hopefully we should be able to agree and finalise this .
Can you email me V2 to s.badham@blueyonder.co.uk.
I'll post my comments here and also email you back the sub-plots I have.

Okay talked to Major and we're all sorted.
See you there!
Sorry guys, definitely can't make it tonight.
Please let me have a copy of the gameplan though so I can make comment, although everything that's already been planned is bloody groovy.
My only advice at the moment would continue to be: keep it simple, allow for in-game adjustment, have contingency, presume everything will not go as planned and never over-estimate an airsofter's common sense.
I'll email the sub plots I used previously to you Guy, sorry completely forgot when I had my old PC power up via the steam engine last night, will try to do it tonight. None of them are integral to the game and I'm not precious about them so you can change/reject them as much as you want.
Chars.

No probs, I'm hoping where I've got to will meet with general approval tonight , if there's major problems then I'll go back to the drawing board. If I can get consent from Yith and CW then hopefully it should meet with your expectations as well and I'll send you what I've got .
now.........where did I put that v1 ?
I might come in full uniform if my new Ritterkruez is waiting in the postbox
