Re: Milsim?

with milsim, you play all day long, well the one's i've played go that way

i've played milsims at urban assault at RAF Upwood, and there are objectives to do throughout the day, and then certain objectives to do before a specific time, or at a specific time or after a specific time

normally all day objectives are capture intel etc, the specified time objectives are hold a building at a specified time, or attack a building, move something from A to B etc

i normally bring out:
- enough ammo for the day
- water (3ltr camelbak)
- lunch to eat out there
- a large rucksack full of all sorts like a spare smg or pistols (incase my primary breaks)
- gas for pistol, spare batteries

Re: Milsim?

What about regen zones? And do you hike to each objective using maps etc?

Re: Milsim?

Mid or Low cap mags
Enough ammo to last the day
Hydration & food on your person
Spare batteries/gas
Tried & tested gear is always a bonus

Other than that you don't really 'need' much else, especially for your first forrays into MILSIM. It's a different story when you come to 24 hour solid games etc but otherwise it's not all that much different.

Re: Milsim?

the milsim's i played had a medic rule:

if you got shot, the medic would put a yellow band around your arm, then when you get shot, for a second time you go and regen back at base, or hq for your team

depending on the objective, we may have to walk to it, or get there whenever we felt like it if there was no time limit on it

there were maps provided, with objectves on the maps, showing you where to go, what to move to where etc, but most of us were regulars, and knew the site well enough so that we only needed to know the objectives and time
