Well, as if I weren't geeky enough being a lifelong wargamer and working in the computer industry, I have now added airsoft to my resume of geeky interests. Here's a Youtube video of the close quarter (CQB) combat airsoft field that just opened in my hometown and yes, that is me in the OD green fatigues and black tactical vest. YouTube link Dave |

Its very intense. Much more so than you would think. Wandering through those dark and often smoke-filled corriders and rooms watching and waiting for a baddie to literally pop out of the woodwork really gets the adrenaline pumping. If your looking for something to do while your not pushing toy soldiers around, I highly recommend it  Dave |

That's all great and fine, (and a very nice video with good production) but I didn't see any cute Japanese fallschirmjager girl snipers link Maybe if you had a chibi SPG
link Short answer, is you're not too geeky, the Japanese have you beat: link Wyatt |

Redbeard, one of the player's that night, had his wife along and she played. I don't know why they didn't take any video of her. Of course, Saturday night airsoft is not the best venue for picking up chicks, nor playing 40k on Friday nights or historical miniatures on Sunday for that matter. No wonder I'm still single *slaps forehead* Dave |

Love the cardboard Hanomag
Swastika car regalia isn't so cool. Park it on my street and the locals would probably test the "I <heart> violence" statement to destruction. |
