Dude...AEG's aren't even allowed. You can only bring pistols.

Pay attention. It doesn't cost anything.

how do you recommend I lower the FPS of http://www.airsoftpost.com/xtreme-full- ... 31135.html to get it to 330 FPS without a velocity reducer?

Dude. Read the entire thread. The location will be announced when it gets closer. Pistols only. No velocity reducers. No nothing. If you can't meet the requirements, don't bother showing up. Simple as that. :roll:

I am slightly bothered by the fact that you would even consider bringing that to a game. I do believe I have seen it said on numerous web sites that it should be used as a target gun due to the fps being so high.

I think I can speak for Alex here when I say, DO NOT BRING THAT TO THE GAME... Unless you plan on using it for just the target section, that is a different story, maybe...

This is a competition style game, and because of its fluid-nature, there isnt a real defined end-time. Depending on when your group of adeventurers arrives, and how long they spend in the Gypsy Camp with the sub-missions, determines when you go on the main mission. How long it takes you on the main mission, determines when you're "done".

Things are intended to kick off at about 10a. If your group completes the sub-missions quickly, you can get into the main mission sooner than a group that takes their time on the sub-mission.

I'm not even sure a velocity reducer would work on that gun. The velocity limit is 330fps tested using a .20g pellet. Tombstone gave the best suggestion that I can think of "use a different gun"

Well, I am still interested in attending, but without knowing where this is happening I didn't feel safe pre-paying, and now that I'm not pre-paid, this game seems a little our of my price range for what we know so far.
Can you give an ETA on more information? or is part of the game exploring the greater Northwest trying to find the site of the event? ;)

Abe, here's a rough rundown of the event.

Players show up at the Gypsy camp. At this point they have no local currency and whatever pistols they brought with them. Within the Gypsy camp are opportunities to get money and guns. Some of the mini games involve shooting ;)

Once the players are armed and have played around enough in the Gypsy camp they'll find a way to get across the border and begin the rescue mission of their colleague Crispin Manicotti.

Right, well, thats all well and good, and covored in the players handbook,
what i need to know is if it is going to take place outside of my now car-less range.

If I remember correctly, I believe it's near the same site (or possibly even the same exact one) where Santa's War 2 was held. That's just what I've heard.
