Skirmish D-Day

[sturmvogel]

Has anyone here been to the D-Day Scenario at Skirmish in Pennsylvainia? I've been there to play, but have never been to a there D-Day Scenario. Is it worth going? Pros and Cons of it? Thanks for any feedback.

[PRPB]

I havnt gone to there D-Day yet, But I plan on going this year. I have gone to other senerio games there before and they where great and from what I hear D-Day is the best one to go to. I just need to get out from reffing it. :rolleyes:

[Snowball]

myself and a few others plan to go there this year also...heard alot of good things about it...hope to see you guys there....

[DementedChild]

ill def be there it is awesome

[sturmvogel]

Nice, hope to c you all there.

[Meph]

I was there last year, I'll be there this year as well.

Only I always work at these events. With 1800-2500 players, I have a lot of tech work that'll keep me busy! Nothing like fixing everybody else's broken markers for a good 8-12hrs. :D

[nightmareS]

I want to go. I've heard good things about the field. But when is it. I want to go to the d-day in oklahoma. But my work is real busy this time of year and can't get out of it. Thanks for your help.

I beleive the scenario is on July 10-11. Here's a link to there site about the scenario - http://www.skirmish.com/scenario.html

Yup! I went last year and it was great. Normally i hit up all their scenarios, i missed Castle Keep this year though, i'm going to make sure THAT doesnt happen again.

I might actually go Allied this year. Last year we (nazis) raped them and they never stood a chance. Should be interesting to see what happens this year. Maybe a few of us could meet up somewhere, i know a few guys from PBF are meeting up with me when i get there.

Anyway, if you're thinking of going, do it, you wont regret it! :)

How does it work regarding overnight accomodations? I've heard you can camp out, but is the game still being played? or are there designated rest times?and what about eating? i know food will be there for sale, so there are times when you can go eat and not get shot up by a nazi? any info anyone might have on this would be appreciated, thanks!

[PRPB]

Yes you can camp out or bring a RV or something. You can eat any time during the day. Where the food is sold there is the area with benches you can sit at and not have to be worry about getting shot.

I went to last year's D-Day too. It was super. I was on the Allies... and we were ravaged... rectally. Just watch out, last year, there seemed to be a HUGE issue with the people who filled co2 tanks. They kept on overfilling... exploding burst disks for all! I would advise just putting down a credit card and renting a small nitro tank at the place. I learned this the hard way and missed the beach storming... damn



Ahaaarrr me hearties.. Avast... and other associated pirate aphorisms :argh:

[Weltman]

Repoman, Conan and I will be bringing the Automagnus to fight for the allied forces.

[dj89]

[PsychoBaller]

Wow.. if this is all that are thinking of going... pretty pathetic...

Skirmish holds some of the lartgest East Coast Scenarios, and some of the best to boot !!!

Lets see some more peoples....

[dj89]

and zeke1975 is going to.

[WenULiVeUdiE]

I'm going with my dad. Should be a blast. Is anyone going up friday and camping out like me for the rest of the weekend? Who else will help defend the Fatherland from attack!? Zeig Heil ( Even with taking German, I'm sure I spelled that wrong)

[dj89]

i'm camping and i'm goint o be german lol :p

[Cornmuffin87]

I'll be going. You'll see me with my phantom most likely....may have a mag by then. (I am an admin at the phog...phantom owner's group...) so you'll most likely see me friday with my black Phog t-shirt on. There are never usually that many phantom users there....so if you see one...good chance it will be me. Just look for the acid grey phantom with a micro ca 2!

I was there last year and it was pretty fun....although us allies got our butts kicked :shooting: :cry:

[DoctorStox]

yeah. last year even after we took the beach, me and my friends had to stay there all of sunday fighting germans off. they were just mroe organized. but this year good will prevail! I'll be the kid with the red/chrome/black classic vert feed SS mag running rmote to my camelback, lol. I'll be wearing a bunch fo red and running like it's my job so u can tell who i am. come say high, we can shoot totalitarians together.

[theraidenproject]

I and paintballpapa and another mag-shooter not on the boards will be there. For anyone who's been there last year, do they run out of paint? I have the money for 2 cases, but I don't want to buy them both at once in case I need the money for an emergency gun fix or something.

[DoctorStox]

when u say enough money for 2 cases, do u mean 2 cases at 70 or 2 cases at 100. the way they do it is they have the price at 100 per case, and the more u buy at once, the cheaper the price gets. i think u need 10+ cases in order to pay 70 a case. You can meet people there to buy cases in bulk, just make sure you keep your eye on the guy, because even though it is nice to trust people, some not so nice people do exist. I dont think 1 case will be enough, i am buying 3 cases. last time i threw a case jsut on the beach, in the first couple hours, but that's my style. As for paint, they have like 3 huge trucks full of it, but i don't know if they ran out last year, it's skirmish, so i doubt it.

[Cornmuffin87]

They have PLENTY don't worry. I shot my phantom the whole game so I only went through half a case the whole time :dance:

I'm going stock class this year so hopefully I can cut that number in half :cool: .

[DoctorStox]

yeah, that's cool. i had a phantom, just wasnt my thing. also, whoever it was that asked, i am also goin down friday night. I'm like 3 hours away and i think we're leaving around 12:30 or 1. there is 3 of us. sadly, my mag might be down, but i'm puting ym shoulder stock and remote and n2 on my friends 2x rt flatlined tippman, so we'll see how things work out.

[theraidenproject]

dr stox - thanks a lot. I have $ for 2 at 70, but between my 2 friends and I we will have 4 cases (prob 5 or 6) so maybe you or other in this thread might wanna get a group buy together? We're going down Fri night, too.

[dj89]

hi lets do it man you got aim so we can meat up some were?

pm me for my cell #

[WenULiVeUdiE]

Yea how many cases until there is a discount? What is it, like 10? I hope to meet some of you there.

[dj89]

12 and up i think :confused:

[PRPB]

12 and up i think :confused:

Yes it is 12+ cases for the price to be 70.

[dj89]

[PRPB]

Would anyone going happen to have a extra long power feed plug for the warpfeed I have, borrow, buy off them? :confused: I've been searching for mine the past few days and I have had no luck finding it. :cry: If someone does please PM me. Thanks
