+1 for combined chest-rig + backpack. Balances much better, does not bounce around and you do not have two sets of straps on your shoulders which helps in routing comms wires etc. The only drawback is that you really need a rig that is easy to take off, otherwise it is too cumbersome to access your ...

And last, bring a skin creme against inner thigh rashes . The commonly appear amongst people who are not used to walking a lot and your army trousers won't help exactly, they don't breath. Compression shorts or other underwear that stays _put_ and reaches almost down to your knee, for the win. They...

Comfort +3C bag was more than adequate in B9, the main problem was that it was a choice between sweating to death in the bag or opening it and getting sucked alive by mosquitoes. They stinged right through my shirt and even the mosquito net. In B8 the nights were somewhere around 3C and I had hard t...

What others said about feet. Hilly areas will indicate very soon if you have badly fitting shoes as your feet slide around, and guys with overall good fitness can still wreck their feet as there is not too much downtime for blisters to heal properly. I imagine that this is even more pronounced if yo...

Request to Berget Crew about in-game videos: can you somehow share the raw unedited videos taken by berget crew? Just convert it to some reasonable file format and push it out as torrent. No server bandwidth wasted there and no need to wait for the edited B10 trailer before we get to see the videos....

^ what was said above. The pizza mission seemed like a bad 70's war movie, with a crummy van packed full of guns and three very nervous guys in the front seat. I would still like to know why our van was blown up at the Poldavian northern checkpoint at the bridge? Did we miss something, or was it jus...

BTW we came back for revenge that day at about 1:30 at night, was it zanzir that left in the transports? We came down the mountain and attacked from the real bunker where the road divides into one going to eastern road block and the other heading down/up to graveyard and plateau. I believe so. We (...

ZBO fireteams were very independent; we were typically given a task and free hands on how to perform it which made for very interesting gameplay. We (K team) did not have any specific orders to link up with NAF forces at any time...actually we were a bit careful also with NAF forces even with blue b...

First day, artillery was in an intersection when a firm car came from both sides, one carrying about 8-10 ppl, they said they carried vips, i wanted to get you away from the car and frisk you, search the car and take valuable intel but i was denied in doing this due to the stratigic disadvantege we...

Probably calling dibs for your chestrig, gun and boots, before the camp BBQ starts...

On arrival to Safezone , late Tuesday, there was serious disbelief about being able to pull off the Firm/Zansian trick with our tents being within BB shooting distance from the safezone. We tried using several routes to/from the SZ, but it was pretty clear that at some point someone would notice the...

Finnish/Oulu contingent has pretty widely relied on Wayfayrer ready meals which are identical, or at least almost identical, to ones you find in British MRE cartons. Google the brand to find resellers; mostly seem to be available in UK. For this Berget I relied on dryfood (in the morning), wayfayrer...

+1 on folks saying that bases should be in-game. BE rules provide 6 hours of down-time every night and no one mandates you to participate in defense. That is IMO a good compromise between all-out 24h game and "milsim lite" with completely off-game bases.

One night me and my guys did have a problem with the Pizza delivery service. It's not a surprise since even The Firm's side branch (Combat Zone Pizza Delivery) had troubles with Poldavian sentries shooting up our perfectly innocent pizza delivery vans :) Overall logistics - the only thing that I ab...
