Atacs fg or au?
 
Hey guys, I'm looking to upgrade from regular old woodland bdu's. I want to get atacs but im not sure which I should get, the au or fg version? So I attached some pics below of the place I play on so hopefully you can help me out! I'm also open to other suggestions!

Btw thanks to Angry for the pics haha.

FG will disappear in those bushes, but AU will do the same in the buildings... I'd go with the FG, it's probably more important to be camouflaged in foliage than beside a concrete wall.

Thats what I figured as well man, just needed a second opinion really. Thanks a lot man!

During greener months, the FG will disappear into the environment. During the browner months, the AU will be more effective in those same environments.

Get one set of both. Problem solved. :D

That's what my team did :D

I unfortunately do not have the budget for that haha. Thing is, its only green like that 2 or 3 months out of the year, 4 at the absolute most and im usually gone away on military training than or for a bit of anyways. Hmm we'll see lol

AU still rocks even in the greens

Go with an FG top and an AU bottom - similar to what the brits did in Helmand province to blend into a mixed environment. The AU bottom will blend into the scrub and the FG top will blend better with the leafy parts.

Thats what im thinking as well after looking at that link. Its not the best, but it works plus it'll work all year round whereas the fg will not be as effective year round. Basically pound for pound I think the au would be the better choice.

Here's a few images of the not so green time of the year like it is almost always lol
