Operation: Phoenix D-Day (Australia)

[HeDsHoTz]

Just thought i'd throw a few pics on here so you guys can taste the Aussie flavur.

These pics are from our version of D-Day, held in Rawson, Victoria. It was the weekend of the biggest, baddest bushfires Australia has ever seen. Topped out at 46*C (115*F)

Anyway, without further ado, I bring to you:-

awesome pictures! You guys have a very nice and well thought out scenario field and lots of cool toys. If I ever had a chance to design a field I'd make it like yours. A few little make shift fields we've designed I tried going for something like that but its just too hard with only a few people.

Nice field! Great pics too, were you snapping them and playing or just snapping or playing?

[DriverJ]

That would have been AMAZING to be at.
