Working games out at Fox hole

I want to Open a discussion about the partial use or the Full use of the Fox hole area.

Eventually trails will be cleared but there may be times were not all the field actually needs to be used....

Think of any Scenarios that will go well with this map...the placement of bases, CTF Flags,spawn points, use of go-cart patrolling vehicles or possible night games...and Down pilot or similar extraction events.

Games using the roads may only be good if we limit how far players can flank... otherwise any camper can just pick people off the road....A real good road only game would be a pistol only battle!


The map below has no names or landmarks for anyone to find it....Only posted so you can imagine what can be done with it.

I have a general idea of a game type we can use the roads for.

One event I had in mind is a defend the general type game,, 2 teams, one is US forces split into 2 squads, one squad is a patrolling/scouting squad sent ahead to relay enemy whereabouts, the other squad will be the elite 4 man squad plus the armies general. The goal is to take out the general to win the game before the squad has reached an extraction point, there will be no respawn, unless we add one medic per squad and the medic must tie a white band around the players foot. I think this might be a very fun and simple scenario.

how about sniper hunt if there are multiple snipers? they each use walkies and get a head start. everyone else gets unlimited re spawns so that the snipers can't camp.

I spotted a shit load of tires dumped around the area... I estimate maybe more than 60 tires that can be collected and rolled over to any location to be stacked as sandbags making pill boxes, fox holes, bunkers, wall, barriers, and even a pyramid shaped sniper tower!

we can place these along all 4 corners of the block and in some areas within....at the road side were there are street battles... a few mini bases that must be taken!- Checkpoints!

We need no Sand bags!...Roll those things into position!

sand bags/ tires would be awesome!

When will you guys be going out there to work the trails? See when we can get together on the weekday to whack some bush. I am off at 3pm so I can get there around 4pm and work for about an hour or two. I also see in the map that we can probably clear out the 1st block (where we were parked) to make a smaller playing area. Let me know what day. Wednesday works for me.

Wanna meet up?... I'm down for work!

I need some cammo paint...Lots of camoflage spray cans!... anyone wanna donate since I and Claw have spent too much money on material gear....Check out our new team gun rack!



I think it is still too bright white, so I figure we need to use spray paint so it still will not be noticed or seen.

I wanna collect those tires and start building them like sand bag barriers....Any one wanna roll them over!?

Fox hole is gonna actually look pro!

Possible Map base positions ...maybe with some effort they can all be built.

Collect enough tires that are ditched and believe me, there are plenty of them!

Bases and stuff made from stacking tires!





Scout out the area for all those ditched tires!

well that looks pretty easy, do we have any plywood?

this can be done in minutes! ahh, but we must stack the tires first


im talking like i have played wiht you guys already, ill show up this weekend with 2 friends

Here is a base made extensively by recovering nearby tires!

This is of another Location by other airsofters taken off the Internet... Location unknown!



Pictures taken are shown it being constructed so it was messy!

i'll see when i can come and help out. how about we spray paint parking spaces? that would make it look really pro

Seems interesting what you did with that map there but you need to realize this area is under security watch from time to time. Being that we used to play there and have been confronted by MPs in the area. I dont know if you want to invest so much time and material to then have them possibly come in and destroy everything or have you remove it.
That AO from when we used to play had alot of tires and plywood everywhere as well as garbage piles and they came in an cleared everything. This was while the school was being build so im sure they still keep an eye on that area.
Either way, its some good ideas.

Who is the owner of this piece of land, public i guess?

they talked to the city to get permission, I can now imagine having one down here in miami!

Materials are readily available and are littered in the area, just need to roll them to the spot!

I have taken into account of security so we will build our first structures hidden and not to be ever seen from the possible main roads, even the school may still be using the rear road for access so we should keep the area publicly invisible!

I might have to work this saturday. If not, I'll be there with equipment.

Just remember that some of us have been playing there for years. The more you advertise and the more you construct the more chances you have of getting it closed down. Secrecy is of the upmost importance here.

damn dude thats really good!! but ahhhh please dont pull the pin on my grenade and keepit safe! you have no idea how hard it was to put it back

i have a idea for an easy removable bunker but its hard to explain.also we should make 2 main bases on either sides of the feild.they should be big!we will be able to play scenarios like base infiltration or just all out war and what would be awesome is ctf

I could always talk to the security personnel there. However, take into consideration that, as it was said previously, secrecy is of the utmost importancy here. Therefore you guys shouldnt be buiding too many things/structures. Just use what you have and go with it.

The field needs some extra work modding it... I need some guys to help roll out a few more pill boxes using the tires collected in the general area to form a few more battlefield objectives...

The center base built by me and team claw needs work...too much vegetation actually ruins the attack and defend-ability of that point.

Soo much for secrecy.

I took the liberty of staying late and modified the whole center base field area.

The Flag base has been split into 3 tire structures.

A tire sandbag pill box stands guard facing the street.









A much larger sandbag bunker was erected near the Center of Fox hole.











Both tire fortifications are well defended circular walled structures and are placed in areas to fend off a 360 degree attack.

The Tire tower with the Flag on top was left standing to mark the dead center of the field.



As a fan and builder of Sandcastles I hope you all later find a good use to any defensive elements that will hopefully be put to good use....I have taken an interest in studying defensive battlefield structures and where they are best placed.

map indicating current structures... the yellow marked areas are for a future objective spawn point...I will add those in later.

Today we actually ran out of tires as most of them were all recovered and used to build yet another pill box base complete with a flag pole objective... it is flying the old Japanese flag and is the base that is our parking zone but still in the battlefield.

consider this base a starting point in a game and a landmark for such to help organize games.... some man holes were also covered by additional tires for safety!

The map will show some marked areas where pill boxes are standing and flying flags as base starting points.



These bases have flags and have been placed at a respective distance.... Fortunately a truck dumped more tires today so I hope to build an objective base located at the Hobo clearing on the other side of the center field.

center field can always be a base capture point.

I have posted a most current map of bunkers and flag positions for the FOX hole.

look for the black spots indicating tire bases or other man made sandbag type defenses.

Tire tower in the middle will later be reduced for more bunker builds but the flag positions will remain as they are.



Details on the German flag bunker:

This base is built mostly for a frontal defense facing west towards the center.

This area is concentrated on attack and defend and will work well if all streets are off limits- (Rivers scenario!)

Street bunkers or pile boxes and sand bags:

Located in the north street designed for skirmish line attacks for advancing and retreating purposes.

Center Japanese Flag base:( Tire Tower)

Currently an objective center field land mark. The area is too densely wooded to attack and a base is not actually needed.

nearby off center is a large tire bunker angled for a defensive of tire tower, It faces the North street.

HOBO base:(not on map )

built by a HOBO it is deep in the woods on the far west end of Fox hole and yet confused with the tire tower Japanese flag base.

Area is planned for something special, but only after I finish half field.

THE GOAL:

Build FOX hole so that it is slightly speed ball and like that of extreme rage but with recycled materials from the surrounding areas and keeping it militarily simulated for scenarios!
