Scenario Woodsball Team
Modified By 51 on 11/7/2007 7:10:27 AM)

After this past weekend and talking with friends, Iv decided to start building up a "Scenario WoodsBall team"

The Idea....

Think a intense micture of Military, Stratagy, Tactics and paintball. I am looking to put together a 6-12 man team with roles and assignments. Develope together, stratagy and teamwork. Put together a "Para-military" structured Uniformed team, designed to go out to these "big scenarior" events. Example would be the Foxcroft game.. another Example would be my end all goal for this team, Skirmish Pennsylvania in their July 15th and 16th D'day assault.

Roles/Positions:

Sniper- not only a "ranged attack" role, but this position also plays the commanders direct eyes/ears. The sniper is more of an intel. role then he is able to see what the opposition is doing, and relay that back to command so they can provide the correct tactics in dealing with them.

Heavy Assault: Positions will be the "high volume" of fire, provides heavy support, Grenades, Rockets,RPG, etc. should the scenario call for such.

Light Assault: light assault is a fast mobile setup, your typical infantryman. with a ligh load, able to move quick, and fight fast. The heart, and muscle of the unit.

Captian/Commander: cordinates the attack, talks with individual members and directs the squads attack. Also is in direct communication if possilbe with the Scenario General or supreme commander.

What Needs To happen:
Obviously getting the people interested and involved, then meeting, trying everyone out and various slots, see where everyone excells at, and what they like. After a while of trying various mixtures and slots/positions, assign each designated role, then play and train together, get to know each others style, as well as learn a few "hand" directives (combat hand signals) as well as Tactics (ie. Flanking, movements, stealth.. etc) then putting these to use, and practicing them.

Other Thoughts:
Communication, I am thinking of maybe using those "Cobra" handheld radios as a form of communication. Being that you can lock out your operating frequancy on them, they are small and have good range and are durable, Not sure what they retail for but will look into it.

Uniforms, not saying that we have to be uniformal, like matching but i was thinking it would appear nice and be nice to have a similar cammo pattern (maybe woodland). It would also play in handy as far as tactical operation/camo. ex- if you have 3 guys 2 in woodland and 1 in ACU (new style cammo) .. the guy in ACU is gonna stick out like a sore thumb.. yet agian this isnt a deffinite or requirment, but more an idea for now.

Another thought I had was that, maybe if this gets off the ground, Id go out and invest in a patch for our cammo. uniforms that represnts our team, either it being original, or a completly custom one, I know a place I can get them made up practicly for free, then just hand them out and have everyone attach theirs. Before we can reach the idea of what the patch would look like, a team name would be needed and before that a team for the team name would be required lol.. so agian this is all in the developing stages, but something Id like to get off the ground over the course of the winter, and hopefully have everyone on the same page for spring and summer of 2008.

one thing i want to stress is this is FOR FUN and NOT LOOKING to recreate the military, NOT looking to make this a full time thing, rather a hobby like it is now, only in a team setup, with some organization and direction and goal.

If anyone would be interested in this, sign up below or if you have other thoughts, idea etc. put them in here as well I am very open an receptive to everyones thoughts, and ideas.

Thanks guys and I hope this is something everyone might enjoy and want todo.

I am putting the finishing touches to the outline of the 51st woods ball team. I have realy made it as easy as easy gets and will have the applications and paperwork availible for sunday. Ill hand them out then, you guys can fill out the applications and either submit them to me that day or mail them to me, the address will be on there. If your not gonna be there but are interested in applying for a spot on the team email me at my email address as follows and I can email you an application on sunday when they are released.
