What do I need for overnight...
 
Okay so this maybe something almost too crazy.. but..
I'll be going to my first overnight game, there will be 8 people... everyman for him self..
I'm wondering what essential airsoft and survival equipment I may need?
I'm thinking lotsa ammo for sure.. what else?
All help and info is greatly apreciated.
Thanks.

I'm thinking:

Flashlight(s)
Water
Food
Normal Gear
Adapted Clothing (gonna rain? be cold? etc)
Sleeping bag?
Airsoft gun(s)
Ammo
Walkie-Talkie/Communication Device

Those food packs where you add water, they any good? .. And as for communication all we have is a whistle incase of something

I'll let a soldier answer if their food is 'any good' :p

Yeah whistle is a pretty good idea if something turns sour or everyone needs to meet up. But nothing replaces a good cell/walkie talkie if you need to contact someone (another player, parents, friends, police, etc).

hahaha.. I don't know what else to think of, a fire may attract too much attention >.>
A tent being more home-like, thing it could be pulled off?

Glow sticks will prove to be useful Im sure.
Also, a multitool and a first aidkit.

Well you will need some Night vision a Infared laser along with strobes to mark targets those are used for prep for an airstrike. another good thing is Cats eyes on your teams gear and infared tabs they will make it so you can se them. make shure your enemy is wearing non infared coated materials so you can se them. and a gun is also good.

*Note - Not kidding, know where it is, how to get there the fastest way, & designate an emergency vehicle. Think of yourself & your teammates.

Sweet, I think I'm pretty set for gear..except for the food issue.. anybody got any ideas? I really think an open fire cooking something is really noticable.

Have you considered outright cannibalism?
Veteran Milsim players have been doing it for years.
Ask around - it's the "in thing".

protein bars and granola bars work well bring a ton of water also its needed

TokyoSeven August 23rd, 2007 03:25

Trail mix is always handy to have.
Good for a snack or if you need a quick pick me up. Better to go with the kinds where the nuts havent been cooked and salted, so they still have the majority of nutrients in them.

Am I going to be able to carry all this stuff semi easy? XD hahaha... and yeah I've considerd canibalism... is my pinkie finger really all that important?

- Comms
- Glow stick/narc beacon/strobe (so you can be found if you're injured)
- Food (cliff bars are a good choice). Avoided salted foods. They'll make you thirsty.
- Water
- Toilet paper (when nature calls, she's usually not asking for ammo)
- Extra layers (it can get colder at night)
- Spray bottle with alcohol (as a disinfectant and for washing your hands in the field)
- Cyanide capsule (in case you can't be found or saved)
