Santas War 7: Retaking NANDAR Post 17

Santas War 7
Retaking NANDAR Post 17

Visit us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/events/426429864085814/

Retreating from Santagrad, The Grinches Army came across part of the Top Secret “Naughty And Nice Detection And Ranging” Array. The NANDAR Array is used by Santas Intelligence Service to sort out the Naughty and Nice kids, and directly feeds the mainframe that controls his list. The Grinch intends to feed conflicting signals into the sensors, which will confuse the mainframe and result in an obsene number of ‘Naughty’ entries, changing who is recorded as Naughty and who is being Nice – hampering his logistics network.

Santa, needing the best troops in the Grand Army of the North, has selected the elite E.Co 506th Parachute Elf Regiment, to re-take the NANDAR post and push the Grinchtruppen back to Grinchistan.

Ready yourself for Candy Cane Clusterbombs, Gumdrop Minefields, Grinchly Shenanigans and Hijinks.

Ready yourself for Santas War.


Location: the mountains above Estacada (directions at the bottom)
Time: Game Starts at 11am
Uniform:
Grand Army of Santa - Red Armband
Army of Grinchistan - Yellow Armband
Yes, everyone needs A Yellow or Red arm band that is visible from all directions. If you’re wearing a Ghillie Suit, we’ll have to wrap your arm in such a manner that the Ghillie doesn’t cover the band. If you don’t supply your own armband, we’ll have duct tape on hand to use.
It’s custom that people call what team they’re on. Feel free to do that; we just won’t be recording it and keeping track of whos doing what. Sadly, event organizers have lives too and keeping up with who’s on what team isn’t something we’re in a position to keep track of.

Event Cost:
1 New In Box, Unwrapped Toy (You, or people you know, are unemployed this Holiday Season. Lots of other people are in similar situations, and their children are looking at a bleak Christmas Morning. Skip that Big Mac, skip that Latte, and put your money towards helping a kid this year. There is no such thing as bringing too many new in box, unwrapped toys to donate. You never know, you just might be helping one of your friends this year.)

FPS Restrictions:
Automatic/Semi-Automatic weapons – 400FPS
Bolt Action Rifle – 550FPS
Ammo:
We'll be using biodegradable BB's for this event. We'll be chronoing your rifles with .20g BB's

Waivers:
We'll have a downloadable waiver uploaded soon. Everyone needs a waiver.

Featuring Special Characters:
Santa Claus:
Grinch General:

Special Rules:
This is a fun and light-hearted game to help the Toys for Tots. It is not a hardcore milsim game. Please use extra consideration above and beyond what we're used to using when playing, and remember to have fun. Don't fire excessively at any one target. Remember that some Special Character players (Such as Santa or the Grinch General) may be 'effectively invincible' for whatever reason. Have Fun, and don't get all bogged down in the tiny details.

Normally, when we die, we put a brightly coloured rag on our heads. This game isn't about camouflage, and we're using brightly coloured rags and arm bands to denote which side you're on. Instead, if you're wearing a head-cover, take it off, and hold your rifle over your head while going back to your spawn point. Its inevitable that you'll still be shot, so use consideration when shooting, and understanding when being shot.

Administrators will be on the field, observing major combat areas. To enhance gameplay, sometimes areas will be declared off-limits. The administrators are not out to get you, they're there to keep things running smoothly and make sure that everyone is having fun. If you're having a problem, don't get mad, find one of us, and we'll sort it out.

We will be observing the normal 400fps limit for semi-automatic-and fully-automatic guns in outdoor situations, and a 550fps limit for Bolt Action “Sniper” guns. We'll be using .20gram BB's at the chrono station. There are no magazine restrictions.

Please be prepared for the weather. This is the Pacific North West in December. Odds are, it'll rain. Bring a change of socks at the minimum, and we highly encourage everyone to bring a change of clothes. In the event that conditions become unsafe due to poor weather, we’ll call the game early. Otherwise, expect to play from about 11A-3P

This is an all-ages game - this does not mean, however, that we are there to babysit you. Airsoft is an adult game, and everyone in attendance is expected to act like an Adult. If you are incapable of acting like a mature responsible adult, regardless of age, you will be asked to leave.

-----------------------------------
Directions to find the field Update: It was brought to my attention that Squaw Mountain road was recently renamed to Tumala Mountain Road. Updated directions follow.

I am going to assume that everyone knows where Estacada Oregon is (if you are not so sure, find Google maps, it is your friend). Pass through Estacada going east, and continue to head east on Clackamas Highway (sorry, I dont know the highway number, its either 214, or 224 or something). As you approach the top of the hill, you will see Fall Creek Road. Turn left onto Fall Creek Road, it takes a couple twists, then becomes Divers Road. Almost as soon as you're on Divers Road, you come to a stop, at Tumala Mountain Road. Turn Right onto Tumala Mountain Road, and follow it for about 10 miles until you come on an unnamed road that has a Big a$$ sign that says "Santa", turn left and you'll see people, cars, and fun.

Also, I looked up the Latitude/Longitude and MGRS coordinates to the parking area for those of you who can't live without GPS -
45.256345, -122.117110
10TER6927411806

There will not be an address to this field. Follow the directions when they're posted and you'll find it. If you need an address, my rabbit tells me that "123 Shady Tree Lane, Squaw Mountain Hutch" works when she sends rabbit-mail letters to her cousins. If that address doesn't work on mapquest or your GPS, just follow the directions posted.

I will be watching the FB page much more than AP, but will try to remember to come here also.

But, any questions are best asked on there as it is part of my daily life, and obviously AP isnt ;)

The event is public so feel free to share it!

Sounds like fun. Do you think cash donations for Toys for Tots would work well too? It's easy to do online and having funds to distribute toys is important too. The site says less than 2% overhead, which is really good for a charity.

As of right now we're going to keep it as 'Entry=New toy'
I will check with our local contact to make sure they take cash/check donations in case anyone would like to give in addition to their toy.

I'm just going to pimp the FB event link again - it'll be easier to see how many people are coming (in case I plan to bring some sort of snacks)

Santa's official sniper will be there.
Promoters who charge $40 for a game they just copy and paste, does not give a crap about you, they care about money.
