LOL
squads of seven will make a lot of noise in those tunnels
everyones kit will have to be spot on for this one, all rattles and clinks will have to be removed from webbing/weapons. the main thing in tunnels is silence.

Three squads of 7 a side , should mean that the Allies will be a ble to field at least 14 people in the right place at the right time whilst the others go walkabout
Or just leave altogether.
LOL, i was gonna say that morgs, bit i didnt out of good taste.

From what I hear wandering around these darkened tunnels on your own can be quite un nerving
some of the chaps I play with at open days have been down there very recently. heard lots of stories about the place. going to have to keep my wits about me!
I went into the tunnels on my own on the Saturday night doing a radio check back to the safezone - I didn't get too far before I thought 'sod it - I'm out of here' and came scooting back, hoping I didn't make a wrong turn on the way!
I definately think we should all watch 'The bunker' before we do it, just to put our minds that little bit more on edge!
The noises you hear whilst fitting the lights with an LED head torch.....................
That'll be no horror movies for me from now until after October then...
Allied side re-opened for bookings - three places available.

Sounds like brilliant fun
I watched The Descent recently. I could handle it if there were a bunch of pretty girls there...
the bunker HAS to be seen , before you go on this game
a few "micky finns" in the tea urn, and everyone will be well in charicter
serously chomley, did you "drop a log" in there on your own.
it will be great to be REALLY SCARED again
im not ashamed to admit ive been shit scared on my own before now
one night patroling the troop tank hide on saulsbury plain (UK UFO HOTSPOT) , i spent 40 minuites like a statue , WATCHING a little grey alien, like the ones in XCOM. it was watching me.
i was sweating like hell the whole time. thinking, "will blanks scare it off?" , "has it seen me?" , and "no one will belive you, youll be sectioned"
when i plucked up courage, drew my bundeswher fighting knife, and tried to flank it, IT WAS A TREE
i went to my original positon, and the "GREY ALIEN" appeared again.
trick of the moonlight, and bark pattern.
thank god i didnt empty my clip, or go and tell anyone else

There's nothing wrong to admiting to being shitscared... although it may be a bit embarrassing to be scared by a tree.
I, for example, would unashamedly put my hand up and say yes, I have been shitscared a few times.
But then if you were alone in your billet in Iraq and several mortars started exploding close, getting closer and closer, you'd be shitscared too.
In Kenya, the elephant incident I posted in the forces stories thread, that totally shitscared me. When I got home I started getting jumpy from elephant.co.uk adverts.
And of course, that's not mentioning all the creepy shapes you watch on night stags in the wilderness. The dark shapes that always seem to be moving closer, when there's nothing there.
There have been a few reports of being touched and hearing breathing down the bunker. A wren died in there and also a civy died just in the entrance.
As for your Alien Incident, possibly the planets first contact and you wanted to stab it!
Are you a yank lol!
its ok Andy you can admit you just hide in the shadows and grope us now and then
and naa a yank would have tried to blow it to smithereens with 5000 rounds and ended up shooting half his unit instead just kidding chaps heh
if id have had live rounds id have shot it
the only thing i had was my knife, i wasnt trying to stab anything
i was flanking to see if it followed me, and the knife was for if it chased me
as it was the "tree" was in a good mood
apart from a few friends, this is the first time ive told anyone

I've been chased by several trees on the way home from a few pints in "The Far Canal" . After an hour on your own in the dark the mind plays all sorts of tricks.
...serously chomley, did you "drop a log" in there on your own.

Drop a log!
The stupid thing was that nothing scared me - no noises, no movement, no weird shapes or shadows, nothing. I just scared myself somehow! I sort of panicked - and started walking back to the safezone sideways so I could see back and front, then picked up speed in a sort of casual way, broke into a ridiculous speed walkers type stride then reached the safety of the safezone and so wandered in casual as you like, as if nothing had happened.
Really? That unnerving is it?
I'm looking forward to this more and more. I dunno if it's my maniac side saying that
