Skirmish Wear - How do you do it?
6 January, 2010, 21:03
Hello, after I was wondering what kind of gear do you wear for a bog standard skirmish. I like to keep it light and simple, I cannot understand the point of running around in a 1 hour game, with 25 magazines, tac lights, helmets, 2 pistols, it confounds me (yes, I know that isn't proper english :p). Not saying it's wrong mind, just that I find it odd. If you run a look like this, would you mind explaining why to me?
Cheers! UP.
Edit: I am not saying this is the wrong way to do it!!! I'm just curious.

Even at GZW, I'll only wear DPMs and a vest with a couple of spare mags (or a bag of BBs if using my shotty as a primary), a couple of power bars and pistol/spare mag

I think generally, you have 1 or 2 hour games as a skirmish. I didn't know GZ did that, may have to pop down there sometime.

Re: Skirmish Wear - How do you do it?
Yeah at the site where I play the only break all day is also lunch, other than that it's just 5 minute stops in the field between objectives so if you need anything you need to take it with you! I tend to take enough for an 8 hour game, food, water and ammo wise if at all possible all in my SAAV

Re: Skirmish Wear - How do you do it?
I trialed my new loadout over christmas leave, a Warrior 901 elite chest rig, OD combat trousers, combat boots, a grey Sweatshirt with a Browny grey tshirt over the top (baseball style), in the morning I wore a baseball cap with sordins but in the afternoon I wore my Protec helmet with sordins and used my short gun, it was too cold for pistols so I didnt have it with me, that to me was a high speed low drag loadout, and by god without the drop leg clattering about it doesnt half make a differance to movement speed.

Re: Skirmish Wear - How do you do it?
i tend to just use an assault vest carrying 3 mags + 1 in the gun which should easily last me a couple games aswell as lending ammo to my mate when required lol also use it to carry a few smokes and quick loader(s) keeps me fairly light and mobile. tried going for full webbing set which i found to much and made it difficult to get about through bushs etc
thinks maybe he should go with the heard
