Milsim West Veteran - Things to know before going - Tips 

How'd it go?

@@tommyboy5924 fucking amazingly! I loved it so much. I 100% recommend msw

@@Tommymad1 awesome to hear! Been on the edge of going to one for awhile now lol. If you go solo, I assume they just throw you into a squad?

@@tommyboy5924 Yup. Funny thing was my squad was a group of first timers except for our SL and TL, but it was honestly great. We were in the fast attack platoon, and since we were all new, could awkward our way through it together. Although it stops feeling like your first time after the first night

@@Tommymad1 awesome! Thanks for the info

You know you can go as long as you have a parent or guardian

You can go by yourself at age 16.

@@matthewmacquarrie4549 well you technically need them to sign stuff for you still so they technically still need to go just for thay

Did you go?

You must bring your own

Weight. What you bring, you have to carry. A plate carrier is heavy, and the protection it offers doesn't mean anything against BBs. Some milsims have tried to balance this out by giving people with plate carriers/actual balistic helmets an extra revive. Ultimately it's down to you whether or not you want to bring it, and maybe more importantly, whether or not you can walk / jog / run A LOT wearing one.

@@GPOLICE so running foam plates would be a partial solution?

So if i just run the carrier and no plates (which is what i do for a normal game) i would be fine? Edit: i dont really sweat or get hot with it on and iv worn it for almost 3 or 4 hours straight with no issues at all
