Spring '09 COMBAT CLASSIC:
The Battle of Riva
Ridge
The scenario will be
based off of the WWII battle fought between American and
German/Italian
forces.
Below is the information available as of right now. More posts will follow as information is confirmed.
General:
Date: April 4th and 5th
Location: Lake Frederick camping
area on West Point.
Detailed driving instruction will be posted here
soon. This area will provide more camping room than the past few years,
better access to the Thruway and Central Valley, and brand new challenging
terrain that West Point is known for! (Experience on the ground is no longer
an advantage…this time!)
Registration: $50, registration gets you both days of play, free camping, free air and CO2 both days, and an entry into the prize raffle/giveaway at the end of game play on Sunday.
Paint: Prices to be determined, two brands will be available, FIELD PAINT ONLY.
Facilities: Free camping, portable-restrooms, water tanks all on location
Chronograph/firing modes: Chrono will be at 280 FPS, all firing modes allowed
Important Notes:
Pre-registration info will be up as soon as possible along with maps of the playing area.
No alcohol, drugs, or firearms allowed. No pets, no fireworks, no open fires or campfires. No Nazi Swastikas on uniforms or accessories. German and Italian WWII-era uniforms are ok. Check with officials if you have any doubts before the game.
GUN HITS COUNT
Tanks will be allowed, must have the ability to tape a "kill box" to them via masking tape. Tanks must have a visual elimination indicator (i.e. a white flag). Tanks must register before the game and have all of the aforementioned equipment.
Anti tank weapons are allowed; the only projectiles that can be shot are the small foam footballs. Chrono velocity will be displayed later. All anti tank/special weapons will be checked by the head referee and approved before use.
