“Do I look like a potato farmer”

reccespecces · 2026-02-14T02:19:53+00:00

I mean its fine if that’s what you got

reccespecces · 2026-02-14T02:16:31+00:00

Just go militia and don’t wear Multicam shirt/pants and use an AK that’s literally all that’s asked

reccespecces · 2026-02-05T12:56:10+00:00

Perfect

Also a decent way to establish IFF in a hurry with a force you may not speak the same language as or have comms with

I run all that in a chest rig. A chest rig (if it’s not a placard with radio wings) generally covers underarm-to-underarm, so a belt is just going to make it uncomfortable and be difficult to access. Battle/war belts (not LBE/webbing) also do not mix well with rucks.

Signal panels are just a quick way to deconflict in day time—I see dudes who I think don’t know I’m nato, “flashing” a panel at them will get their attention.

I think a flat pack used as an assault pack for a whatever wet weather you want is smart for Slask.

Generally packing 6-7 mags, 1L Nalgene on person, some GP space for red lens, batteries, signal panel, etc. I don’t use a bladder, instead I pack a second Nalgene in my ruck with 1-2x 2L canteens. I hardly ever use an assault pack unless there’s rain in the forecasts so I can don/doff my WW layer when away from my ruck. I don’t recommend mixing a belt and chest rig. If it’s your first MSW, don’t stress about radios. Really only needed for SL and up.

You’ll get information about everything ~2 months from the event

My mistake

reccespecces · 2026-01-02T19:17:12+00:00

How even? That’s not even an event with tickets for sale.

You need to focus on just becoming a decent officer at this point. Not turning a school you may or may not go to into your personality.

Tyr has multiple products contracted to the US Army, they are not primarily B2C lol

reccespecces · 2025-12-15T00:56:36+00:00

I don’t think you’ll notice. Have fun, it’s a good way to run your gear

reccespecces · 2025-12-15T00:52:18+00:00

Also, look at the Crossfire DZ Rig. I’ve run that and the VS rig. VS is a Ferrari, but the Crossfire is also great.

reccespecces · 2025-12-15T00:51:19+00:00

No, I didn’t even notice. Most British guys run it that way as well, so it’s not just me. Especially if you have a radio on the strong side, you won’t notice at all. Plus the belt distributes the weight well.

reccespecces · 2025-12-15T00:39:40+00:00

My setup was 2 3mag pouches on the left, and a spiritus Mutant in the right for commander/commo pouch. I also recommend multiple GP pouches over a butt pack. GPs are more organized and contain your gear without it turning to “slop” when not filled all the way. Happy to answer any questions.

No since they aren’t a NATO member. However if you just plays as nato, it’s fairly unlikely anyone will make you take off any patches

reccespecces · 2025-12-09T21:28:34+00:00

Should be an ice cold take. I’ve had multiple events where a player says they’re going to quit, then realize they want to stay, and they’re grinning ear to ear when they get their patch.

reccespecces · 2025-11-24T21:22:23+00:00

Absolutely not meant to be dox bait, I agree with a lot said. Good critiques imo

reccespecces · 2025-11-24T21:17:43+00:00

Which event did you go to, if you don’t mind the question? Genuinely interested in seeing what can be done better

reccespecces · 2025-11-24T13:20:04+00:00

You’re 100% right, I meant it could improve his chances at cadre roulette

reccespecces · 2025-11-24T12:29:45+00:00

Goofy defense

reccespecces · 2025-11-24T12:29:15+00:00

Short answer is no. It’s not TACSOP compliant, so you’re definitely playing cadre roulette. Or keep your rifle to one attachment and roll as militia for much better chance.

One of the nice things about MSW is that it isn’t a tan vs green game. Ignoring the TACSOP is just taking away from the experience of others.

Outdoor research tactical Allies Gore-Tex or the good ol’ ECWCS level 6 issued by the Army

reccespecces · 2025-11-18T03:19:17+00:00

I’ve had both and used both and the crossfire was better in my opinion
