BARsrule2 Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Wow, amazing place. I wish we had a good CQB playing area that wasn't too small in California. We have a decent one, but it's small and not anywhere close to me. I'll have to make my way to Britain one of these days. Link to post Share on other sites
ThePatriot Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 is that an actual airsoft field? looks intense Link to post Share on other sites
Gadge Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yep thats the whole area used for games. There is more but its out of bounds. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkPhoenix Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Damn that place looks great. The only CQB place I had was Orchid Bay, and that's over an hour drive from where I live. It was a small area, but fun. Link to post Share on other sites
ThePatriot Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Got any other pictures of the field? I'd be interested in seeing what it looks like up close. Link to post Share on other sites

Grim Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Hey Gadge. Did you manage to identify that urban camo? Grim Link to post Share on other sites
Gadge Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Sent you a mail i thought Basically i'm not positive but it looks like 80s VDV amoeba pattern or possibly a naval infantry pattern. I'd have a look at kamoflage.net, most soviet patterns are on there, yours is not a pattern i own.. Link to post Share on other sites
Kousnik Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Mine? Mainly because at PU the urban areas are very dusty and dry and brit dessie works very well, but some missions use the outlying woodland so i slip a sas smock on and a ###### hat to break up the outline. If i'm playing at phoenix woodland it temperate DPM all over. It also helps break up a big block of solide colour. Same reason the RM Commando wear DPM smocks with snow trousers in mixed snow/forest areas. Its finally a more GW1 or afghanistan look where its arid but also bloody cold at times and they were not making sas smocks in dessie on large scale availability then. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Cheers. I didn't want to sound rude or anything - I was just genuinly wondering why since you use a British Army loadout, why you frequently mix patterns as its not something that I have seen (officially) done before.

Grim Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) Hey gade i just checked Kamouflage.net and i believe my unknow camo may be Yugoslavian M89 pattern died blue. Other than that i can find no trace of it any where. Check it out the pattern seems consistant. Grim Edited March 22, 2007 by Grim Link to post Share on other sites

Its done in afghanistan too. Link to post Share on other sites
ColDaz Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 When new desert smocks are issued and you go on patrol at night they can also seem to 'glow' as they haven't worn in. Hence greens are sometimes used. And as you said, breaks up the outline further. Link to post Share on other sites

I suggest getting in touch with PlasticMag, he should be able to tell you if it's a Jugo pattern or not. Link to post Share on other sites
