Zack the Mack and Faddle cordially invite all red-blooded, able-bodied Nerfers to beautiful Long Island, NY to kick ass and take names in the second LINO, Faddle Battle 2! Direct all logistics questions (How to get there, times, etc) to Faddle, not me!

WHERE: Minnesauke Elementary School, 21 High Gate Drive, East Setauket NY 11733. Public transportation via LIRR is available.

WHEN: Saturday, December 5th, 9:30-5:15. War will be held regardless of weather conditions.

WHAT: 3:15 and variants, Count-Up, The Shoe Game, Zombies (Maybe), Aggro Crag, Defend the Core (Possibly), Free Donuts (Definitely)

WHO:
- Zack the Mack (+4 Maybe)
- Faddle
- Compound (From FoamUniverse, Maybe)



Urban Storm: Tight, pulse-pounding close-quarters battle between trailers. Narrow corridors keep you on edge, and an enemy ambush could lurk behind every corner. Perfect for team-based and objective games.

Castle Thunder: A playground with plenty of tactical cover, opposed by a tall jungle gym with numerous points of entry. Dart between cover to storm your enemy from the front, or sneak in through the sides. Classic Aggro Crag action and tactical deathmatches.

Havoc Grove: A run-and-gun master's heaven. Slip through the dense cover of the grove, or storm the enemy in the open area. Either way, expect an onslaught from all angles. The ultimate multi-team or every-man-for-himself arena, or a strategic challenge for teams.

The arenas are compact and favor smart, agile play. There's rarely enough distance to allow for standoffs, and plenty of cover so agile players can break them up!

Important Information:
- Eye protection is mandatory. We'll have extra goggles.
- This is a school. No camo, no realistic blasters.
- You're responsible for your own ammo.
- I will be selling Stefans at $30 for 100. They're a bit tight in CPVC, a bit loose in thinwall PETG, and perfect in 17/32 brass and stock barrels.
- Faddle and I will have blasters and supplies for sale.
- There aren't many restaurants in the area. BYO munchies.
- Most battles will be close-quarters. 100+ ft shooters are discouraged. No singled Titans or other unsafe blasters allowed.
- Transportation between the Stony Brook LIRR station, the ferry, and the war is available. Post for more details.

There's a chance that I could come, depending on whether or not I plan to go skiing that weekend.

[JATDO]

I would need to see how long it would take to get there. If it's close we shall see.

[faddle]

Good news there will be donuts, Possibly munshkins.

Sorry to bump in again. Compound from foamuniverse might come, and I might be bringing a friend or two to the war.

Confirmed attendance. Can't possibly make it at 9:30 though, that's when the ferry leaves Bridgeport.

[Dragon216]

Change of plans guys, looks like I'll be too overwhelmed with work to make it down.

[JATDO]

Sorry I definately can't make it.

[Ubermensch]

I'm afraid I also can't make it--I'll be heading up to VT that weekend.

[DX-Robert]

I'm not so sure if this is going to work out anymore...I didn't expect a Saturday morning track commitment. Is there any chance of a date change?

[Zack the Mack]

EDIT: According to Faddle, the date is set in stone. If you can't make it, we'll see you at the next LINO.

[Dragon216]

I wouldn't be able to make it anytime this weekend. My apologies

[DX-Robert]

Yeah, I won't be able to get out of it. You know, this is the first time I've ever had to bail after confirming...in 4 years' worth of wars. Hope you have a good time, see you at BFNY IV perhaps.

[faddle]

My war was not a sucess. Here are the bad things. One noboudy came to my war, two I was waiting six hours to see if anyone would come, and three I was feeling sick all day. I will have another LINO in a few months.
