Well, I could bring the umbrella again, or perhaps a hunting horn.

I hope this time we won't need umbrellas! I have invested in some more waterproof socks though ((my old ones for running had holes in), never occurred to me to use them for airsoft

Cheers

I think a hunting Horn is a must under these circumstances :giggle:

Well, we should probably only have one hunting horn. I'll bring my whistle.

We will at least be the noisiest group in the game.

All we need now is an umbrella and we're set.

Is anyone wearing a helmet or just a beret?

I've got my helmet, but I often wear a beret under it in a very slovenly manner.

As it is supposed to be a rag tag last stand situation I don't think we should worry too much about looking very uniform.

Am I right in thinking this is the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry??

Absolutely Brit Inf is fine. I have written into the scenario advance elements of XXX Corps being cut off along with the Brit Para units (We are not stitch counters so if thats what you are badged up as no problem) :good:

I thought so ,I know the 49th were attached to XXX Corp,pretty sure KOYLI had involvement in Holland.
Be good to badge up as my local regiment.

Excellent, that will be handy. I presume we also have our usual heap of 2" mortars?

Cheers

I've resolved to get a new Zb26 anyway so I'll definitely have an LMG for this game. I can load up 2000 rounds in magazines but not sure whether to get another 2 mags to bring me up to the 3000 limit.

Regards,

Ralph
