(from fox4 website)
Date: April 22nd
Time: All Day
Game Type: Scenario
Description:
RED -vs- BLUE - mabye you've seen it on the web, maybe you're a loyal follower. Now you have a chance to play it out in real life. Each team will be given a base to defend at the start of the day. During the day each team will try to take control of other key locations spread out around the field. Point will be awarded every 1/2 hour based on which team controls the location.

I was there !!! Red -- and we got our butts kicked ! I went through 3 cases of paint just trying to hold off the Blue attacks. Unfortunately half the Red team didn't understand the concept of how to hold a position, and then they'd retreat. Was a lot of fun though allowing my E Tac to rip through that much paint. I enjoy those games when the odds are against you, but this was insane.

i was blue team, i still dont understand why the battle was so one sided, i was shooting my a5 with apex, until i chopped a couple and shredded the apex, went back to the flatline after that. I only shot a case all day, loved getting three of our five flags up in the final battle. you said red team didnt know how to hold a position?

[HOMELANDEFENDER]

I must say the final battle was intense -- I took a ton of hits. Good thing the rules allowed for fast respawn from a ref. I charged the Blue line, solo - and just stood there trying to take as many blues with me - lol.

Was a fun day. I was using the Apex alot. My E Mag loved it. Not one chop/break in 3 cases. Shooting X ball -- turned out to be great for my setup. Also used a Powerlyte Spector 16" mutibore kit, the E Mag liked that too.

Wasn't able to make it this time but I've noticed the scenarios at Fox4 tend to be onesided.
For some reason or another the radar site is undefendable. Example first time I played a scenario there we were able to assault and take radar almost at will. Once Pagoda fell it was a cake walk. Another time (last year's DEA vs Cartel) we were in Radar and repeatedly got over ran. Yet when we were assualting their camp (sovietski) it was almost impossible by the time we worked close enough they had just gotten their recycles in and were we done. I think that you'll will always find that it seems like one team is completely out of their league when playing the scenarios there. I think there needs to be a little more intervention to try to make the game more balanced throughout the day. otherwise come 2 or 3 after spending more than half the day trying to retake radar and having it over ran again it just gets boring.
That being said the engagements at the village and between pagoda and the depot are unbeliveable. just my 2 cents.

they tried to switch things up, they changed the main base for each team half way through the day, it didnt change anything though, blue team's lead only got stronger

I was thinking a little more drastic than changing bases.
From previous scenarios I have been to the field would have a 3rd side in the beginning (will attack either side if they got into their territory and if one team was completely overwhelmed they would be intergrated into that team to help them out. I'm thinking horror show and a half a dozen more players would have helped a little.
