New setup for Field

[Madrigal]

Well, I figure I can use A-TACs FG for pretty much any milsim in Ontario, just because of the colours. Over that, I am going with my tan lancer vest. Then a tan condor battle belt, drop leg M4 pouch and thigh rig. I just think the full tan over FG will look and function really well

I'm eyeing a set of Emerson ATACS FG or Emerson Vegetato's right now, but I'm leaning towards the ATACS though

A-TACS just seem to be the perfect blend of colours to fit so many different environments. It's like an all-in-one BDU

I like a helmet myself - nothing is worth a laugh more than someone firing off a burst and hitting you in the head, and everyone within 20 feet of you looking around to see what/who was getting "ka-ching-ka-ching-ka-chinged" as plastic meets thick fiberglass.

Better than my scalp/neck, in any case..

I also like, and run ATACS FG .. it works well in Ontario fields/bush/forest. Topped off with OD webbing, and all is golden for gaming.

If a milsim requires a different BDU pattern.. always an excuse to add to the closet - but a base of ATACS FG is good enough for skirmishing.

*edit* - get a basic minimal gaming setup, and add-on from there. If your base budget is $800.00 - while prices have come down in the past year, $800.00 is a bit low for start-up with all bells and whistles. As you are doing here, do your research to make sure you are buying only once... but i would highly recommend doing a lot of reading here and elsewhere to see what people are doing, as well as observing what other people are running in-game, before you get all fancy with your purchases. You don't need all the toys, to begin with... a basic setup will do of webbing and/or chest rig setup with appropriate pouches, a primary gun and a few mid-cap mags (hi-caps are so noobish, don't be a noob.. even from the start..) good boots, eye/face protection and some basic camo. ATACS FG is considered "premium" as far as patterns go, and is priced somewhat higher than surplus camo. You don't need a sidearm to start.

Better to get that sound off of your helmet. Ask wildcard, he'll tell you about digging bb's out of man's head after he tried to run away from a M134 few years ago Nevertheless, I have a couple of them but still don't wear brain bucket/face mask.
