Mooncruiser, I'd agree with that. Modern airsoft is much like 80's paintball. Skill is emphasized over gear and players were honorable. In AA I'd say things are about as they were before my little break...some good and bad (granted, as I see it), meaning it's at least stable. What's great about AA is that my second game was Op: Savage Garden 3 in Reno (Turd, not Cali...and yes, the Maxim stories did and still do frighten me to this day), and AA only fielded a six man team at that game. We made the first "name" for Arizona airsofters at that game and did well enough that we were all remembered at the next big game we attended. I missed LC4 recently, but heard that AZ took nearly a platoon to that event. There's a change I applaud big time and I'm very proud of AA's growth. I'm glad to be back and look forward to building it further in any was possible...though with adult players!! (ducking multiple thrown objects...)
man, if all of you old farts could hook up at a game again I'd weep to play alongside you one more time. Good memories, gents.
