Evo and I are going (pending booking clearing) as nasty evil SS evacuaters (sounds dodgy that).

Going to rebadge my tunic as generic SS for this one.

Going to unbadge my BD and get a RM badge for my commando beret I reckon.

Belt order and maybe a leather jerkin :)

I was thinking as going FJ initially but SS definately seems to fit the scenario better. I think I'll leave my cuff title where it is though.

yep, going as SS (Any excuse for a new tunic!) not sure whether to leave it generic SS, or badge up as a specific, I'm a sucker for a nice cufftitle. :lol:

No problem, we'll sort out a PBI/allied wants list if were having a good dig around in there.

We practically had to pull Yith out by his ankles last time. :lol:

Well I think it would be ace if we all got into the spirit of it and tried to portray the listed units rather than just going in what we normally play in.

Seeing as its a very special location and its a private members events it seems a shame not to really push the boat out and do something special (especially with over three months to get the look togehter)

Given that on the axis side 'SS, FJ and Abwer' includes just about anything though including civilian dress for abweher i'd have thought (Guy any clarification on that?

Brit 30AU looks pretty much like a relaxed late war commando/sas look

No idea what the US unit looked like, time for some research.

Note: all of the above is just personal desire, you know what a kit whore i am... its *not* in anyway me trying to tell people they have to do this or that -i've no right to do that nor wish to at someone elses game :)

Jus think it would rock if we made this super special visually...

Either Commando/SAS (want to war a cap comforter with black camo face paint :wink: ) or Heer if I have finished it by then because I have not been german yet and I have yet to test my MP40, or possibly US infantry if there are others doing that.

Do bear in mind our recommendation for helmets - dark, narrow tunnels and arched steel supports makes for bumped heads!

Wiki says civvies or uniform without any insignia except the US collar badges.

And the men were sold to use "Agent" or "Special Agent" as their titles!

Yup my research says Civies or unmarked regular army uniform...

That should be well easy for all the us types :)

Well, I'll be looking for as many people as possible to look like a Unit for this 1 for the US.

This is also good for any German regulars who didn't manage to book in on time. Play in civvies!

If the imbalance of sides becomes an issue I'm happy to change to Brit instead :D

Likewise but I'll see how it goes as the places have only been on sale for *three hours*

I can see allied filling up soon enough.

(note i really dont *want* to play allied for this one, i fancy a change but its its end of march and its still 20 vs 3 i'll swap so please dont pm me asking to swap places now....)
