Today saw the combining of the B.R.A.S.S. and BedSOG teams for some good games! The Liberty field was used.The first was the object retreival mission, named above. The Austrian Rebels shot down the Germans Stealth Helicopter (dont’ ask!). In the process of going down, the helo dropped two stealth missles, a satcom phone, and the “black box” flight recorder was also flung out. The two crew members survived and escaped as well. The German Government has decided to save face and publically ignore the incident. Covertly they asked for US aid. A SEAL team training in the area was rerouted to assist. The Austrians managed to secure the satcom phone and both missiles. The SEAL team managed to secure the flight recorder and eventually tracked down the helo crew. Then they went to intercept the Austrians at their extraction point. After some fierce fighting from both sides, the SEAL’s were able to re-aquire the missles. Giving the satcom phone up as a lost cause the SEAL team took all thier captured objectives to the extraction zone. The Sealed Card Medic System was in place.

After this game a Deathmatch (5 on 5) with the Ghost Squad active ensued. Itsahak managed to walk his team right into an ambush and paid the price first. It did not take long for the Ghost Squad to be activated. Two or three players were still active when it became to dark to continue, as no one was equiped for a night game.

a small scenario game we played yesterday. I’ve been working on this one for quite a while now and was glad we were able to do it! We’ll hit it again sometime when we have more people, but it was a blast with what we had!!

The scenario is designed around a captured CIA courier. He was carrying several objects and had hidden them along his planned escape route. A US SF team is attempting to recover. OpFor is a Paraguayan military unit. Medic rules used a single medic with the “Sealed Card Medic System”. The whole time was just a blast!! Congrats to the combined Raptor/X-Ray elements that came together and worked well tactically for the win!

Sunday, September 3 will see the return of the B.R.A.S.S. training days!! All team members will need to have thier all thier field turn out gear, and please be on time! Remember training days are for team members only!

This was an awesome field! The possiblities here are endless! If he’s gracious enouch to let us go back, maybe Strategic Airsoft can come up with a scenario that encorporates both the woodland and CQB play!

Today we tried the Seal Card Medic System. With this system, each player has chosen 5 cards with an injury and a corresponding “out” time. The player does not know what they have until they open the card after being hit.
This is designed in part to keep OpFor guessing, as they do not know the opponents respawn time, and to add a touch of realism to the game. What did you guys think of it?

Also, the Raptor Squad and SA did great today!

Today saw the return of the “Dead Rags” to B.R.A.S.S.! I believe it was extremely helpful and avoided many unnecessary “dead man” shootings! It was great to see the Roughneck Squad down again! These guys are gonna be a major asset to B.R.A.S.S.!!!!

The B.R.A.S.S. War Journal is now operational!!   You may post ideas on how to improve the scenarios, game day reviews, etc! Again, thanks to Hammerhead for the hook up!!

Man this was a blast!! If you missed it, you missed it! Several real steel weapons were fired, including a few legal full auto’s, shotguns and the venerable Glock 21, full size .45 Sheriff’s issue pistol. A ton of fun (and expended lead!) was had. We will do it again!!

First, mad props go out to Hammerhead for making the B.R.A.S.S. website and the war journal a reality! And I must say a huge thanks to the B.R.A.S.S. team members! Especially Hammerhead, Bishop, and One South as they were the originals with me! But its been the entire bunch of you (Bishop, Hammerhead, One South, Skibum, Stealth1, Chemdog and our Inactive Reservists Matshark, Locksmith, and Padawan) for with out you guys, my need for adrenaline, and thirst for knowledge would not be fulfilled! I could not have asked for a better team! Thanks guys!!!
