Demark (Copenhagen airport) law question

I am trying to put together a guide for other Americans to travel to Berget. Due the fact that there are only two cities from the USA that have nonstop flights to Stockholm and one of them being Newark, NJ (strict gun laws) I am trying to see if Copenhagen is a good airport to fly through. Would I b...

Berget 10 date query

I know that it is early to be thinking of exact dates for Berget 10, but the advance window for booking airfare has opened up. In the past few years the trend is for airfare to only increase, especially from outside the EU. So hopefully the dates for 2010 will be debated and decided upon soon as cur...

But nobody carried one. This is a suggestion to make it small enough that anyone can have it (even have extra to hand out.)

I would think that the rules for Berget 10 on a PDF printout could be carried by each game master who could show the rule(s) to the player(s) if needed. This would settle any arguments over rules.

Need help sending a package from Sundsvall to the USA

Before Berget, I ordered some items from Begadi, which does not ship to the USA. Unfortunately, it took them several weeks to ship to my hotel in Sundsvall. So after I get back from Berget 9, I received a call from the hotel that my package arrived. I asked them to ship it to me and I could provide ...

I thought that the NAF base was clean and suitable. The parking was a little far off, especially when carrying gear up hill back to the base. With all of those Polly's attacking you could have at least stopped to give me a ride once. :D

Rule card ----------- I was surprised when a ref was demanding that people move their armbands to the RIGHT arm. I thought it was the left arm. A PDF file of the rules could be printed out and carried by each ref (each player, too.) There would be no confusion about the rules. Team strength --------...

Having actually served as an officer in the US military, I have seen over my years of airsofting that it can be hard for people to put down the gun and take up a strategic leadership position. It takes a different mindset and you always have to keep the big picture in mind. I want to thank all of th...

How could that be confusing? If it is on his head, he is dead. If it is on his arm he is a Poldavian. Even a color blind person could get that right.

Our food was not available to us after the Kiosk was closed, so we were unable to get it at all. We recommended that the food heaters be set up in the HQ but did not see that actually occur. We sent someone into Harnosand to get some food so that we could make up for the lost meals.

B10 paid meal suggestion

While I thought that the pre-paid meals were good, I was only able to have two of them because we were out in the field most of the time and when we got back the kisok was closed. It would be better if we could have a cold boxed lunch and dinner that get delivered each day so we could take them with...

Well I checked my airsoft guns in a Pelican case at Washington, DC on my Lufthansa flight. I had to change planes in Frankfurt to get to Stockholm and I had my permit ready. Unlike the US, you do not collect your baggage to connect, so when I passed the Zoll I did as the permit said - I told them I ...
