Battle For New York II

Date: July 19th.
Start Time: 10
End Time: When people are tired. (5?)

Directions:
Parking lot.

Photos:

The other base for the main playing field.


Logistics:
- Bring lunch. We will be at least a ten minute walk from the street, and don't want to have to have people leave for lunch, as it will likely take too long between getting cars and getting to town and back.
- Bring bug spray. Sometimes the bugs can be pretty bad, but you never really know.
- Be sure to try and pick up your darts. We want to leave the park as clean as it was when we got there.
- I would wear long pants. I've seen poison ivy in the park, and I would think there are some ticks too.
- Optional: A light First Aid Kit in case you cut yourself running through a thorn bush or something of that sort (i.e: just a couple of band-aids and some disinfectant).

If you are allergic to bees, fear not, we're not going to using the location that had the bee's nest in it.

Attendance (as of 7/18: 14-16):
-Nightshift (5)
-Chalywong (+1-3)
-Duxburian (+1)
-Skitzo
-Blasphemy (+Dad)

Yet to confirm:
-Oni Kadaki
-Splitlip

I could possibly make it depending ont he date.

Edit: I'll check my calendar for July 12th.

Edit 2: I can't make the 12th cause I don't have a ride.

Edit 3: I'll check for the 19th. I can make it along with one friend.(Check my post on the next page)

12th isn't the BEST for me, but if that's the best for everyone else, I will probably be there.

Last September's Battle for New York was one of the funnest (besides the bees, of course.) home wars I've ever been to. Talking with the rest of my group, we agreed that the 12th of July would work best for us. We're pretty flexible, though.

And by rest of group, meaning one person we really don't even care about... So yeah 19th is fine. I also think we may have more than 6, probably more like 8 to 10, but only our pretty good players. I'm hoping we can do Outpost (a game that works perfectly there) along with all the standard games (3-15, gunslinger, etc)
If anyone needs to take a train, the mamaroneck station is very close, and we could probably get you a ride from new Rochelle if you're taking Amtrak.

Thanks. You just can't resist putting me down every chance you get, can you? I'm one of the 6 consistent members we still have left in our clan.

Assuming nothing else comes up I should be there on the 19th.
Just got fired from Dunkin' Donuts so my schedule is wide open.
I'm actually going to be in the area on the 14th and 15th for college orientation at Purchase.
I'm bringing bee spray or something this time, maybe some honey.

I'm a maybe at this point. The weekend before the war I'm going to a big scenario paintball game so my funds will be pretty drained. I could probably swing it if I can hitch a ride from omc or something.

Keef isn't able to come so that jeopardizes my chances of coming, I might be able to hitch a ride up with a 2nd friend.

I'd love to go, but the 2 hour drive is pushing it at these gas prices. I'd be coming from 08016 if anyone wants to hitch a ride and chip in for gas??

When speaking about a swallow, always make sure you know whether it is an African or European swallow. It is very important.
