American MilSim's OP: Faded Giant

Postby dos_Santos » Thu Nov 01, 2012 9:56 pm

I arrived here at the AO for American MilSim's OP: FG, at the Goverment Training Institute (GTI) outside Barnwell, SC, several hours ago, and all I can say is WOW. This never-been-used nuclear facility (built to be used as an enrichment facility), is home to AMS's newest milsim series on the east coast. It is spectacular.

In addition to the main event, they will also be conducting DAM's (an additional fee) for those squad's that seek a more intense experience. It involves a planning stage in a briefing room, then a timed execution phase. In the past they have used pyro, land and aerial vehicles for this experience. Despite this being their first event here, and smaller numbers, I believe they will be employing everything they can to generate an immersive experience (minus the helo, but GTI can provide anything from M1 Abrams to UH-60's and any other type of vehicle, for a nominal fee.

AMS has also formed Milsim Mechanix in conjuction with Multiple Application Group (M7) milsim team out of Nashville, and will be conducting an Urban Operations and Low-light Operations course on Friday. I paid in advance for the UO course, but may throw in the LLO course as well.

I will pop back in here to give an AAR, and just maybe this will be come a destination event. More information can be found on American MilSim's Facebook page.
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon

Yea, I am curious too, which was why I "risked" $60 for the MMX course (okay, I really want the feathers). I am interested in the content as they market it for the mil-simmer, and not necessarily un-needed "real world" ninja tactics. I have only heard one account of their ops from Blue about Broken home, and though he enjoyed it, he told me it was underwhelming.

To be fair, I happen to be on the east coast for work so most everything was paid for getting here. Then AMS is comping my entrance fee, so the least I could do is support them by purchasing the MMX course. I like the guys running it, and I'll give them some leeway as they are really coming out of a transitional period (re-branding/marketing, and coming out of legal lawsuits), and really trying to up their game. In the end, I want to know if it's worth it for a guy in the PacNW to pay nearly $1000 to get here ($400+ airfare, camping is free, but realistically lodging is the easiest at $73 /night, $150 for food, $200 for transportation; then there's all the gear one wants to buy getting here).

I am guessing this will be mostly an east coaster gig. Hopefully it's awesome anyway!!

We shall see...
