I think you must differentiate a Milsim from a Skirmish Sniper. In skirmish I agree with you. A Spotter does little. But in Milsim, they are just as useful as your rifle.

Back in Portugal, they are many time mandatory, primarily for safety reasons. A Sniper event or an event with Snipers, are many times longer than 36 hours (24h minimum) and in very huge areas (bigger than 5 square km). You don't want to go on your own into that. If something happens (like a fall, sprain, snake bite, sudden illness, etc) you have no one that you can relay to help you out or call for emergency personal.

I find a Spotter very useful, for gaming matters too. Its an extra bagpack to carry some useful equipment (like good photo cameras and PC with internet, or some abseiling equipment), its a useful extra par of eyes for recon or just to get your 6, and it is an extremely useful 2nd opinion help, if you don´t know exactly how is the best way to complete a mission, or just in navigation issues.

Whoa, that sounds pretty awesome. I'd love to have a major-league game like that.

Hi im new to the forums and have been running as a sniper for about a year so I thought i'd have a look on here and see how you guys do it.

Interseting part about have a spotter. I run one sometimes mainly for the social aspect. He delibrately draws attention then scampers back into my killbox, tis most fun....

Open Yard

My friend from school is having an airsoft war today. His yard is really big but has no trees or anything to serve as an obstacle. He just told me that they built a field for the war. As it is winter where I live, we could still have frozen snow to use as barriers. I only have a CO2 Pistol. I was supposed to be the medic. My neighbor has a DMR that he's letting me borrow. Being a marksman around dead grass would I still need to use a Ghillie Suit?
