Welcome to the fray. You'll enjoy running with the bug instead of away from it for a change!

Interglacials are short and then we enter the nasty brutishness of the glacial periods.

2nd Armor contains Tanks, Infantry, Anti-tank, and Artillery

You do not need a tank or be a tanker to join the 2nd Armored Division! The 36th Mechanized Regiment of the 2nd Armored Division is Infantry, which is refered to as Cavalry and may be mounted or dismounted on armored vehicles. The 899th Tank Destroyer Battalion of the 2nd Armored Division is also an infantry unit
which is equipped and trained to destroy German armor!

Calling all Tankers

If you have a Tank, are building one, or otherwise and need a Tank crew, please contact: Scott Bolden -
death@anpaintball.com. We are also looking for Tanks without crews to have some of our Elite, physically challenged players 'man the guns!'. Let Scott know if you have room.

Commander: Major General Keith “US ArmyManofWar”Mitts

XO: Brigadier General Scott "Death by Daddy "Bolden

When does registration close? Just wondering when we'll know what the final count with the 2nd armored will be.

Registration doesn't really close till the day prior to the event, but if you mean when's your
last chance to insure you'll be a member, that happens in just a few days. After that and all
they way up till the first week in May players wishing to be with a specific unit can note that
then they register, but ultimately it's then up to the Bunker's staff to actually assign you to
that unit. They do their best to put people where they want to be assigned, the only exception
occurs when the unit has already reached it's limit.

As to what the unit's strength is, that's something we don't discuss on public forums for obvious
or maybe not so obvious reasons. Unlike most other events, D-Day brings into play a number of
aspects not typically seen in most other sceanrios. Aspects such as Intelligence gathering, pre-
mission planning, player and unit training are only a few of the things both we, as well as our
German counterparts take very seriously.

Why not join us and see for yourself why we say, "it's only a game till you've played it."

They typically have 2-3 deadlines.

One is around April 1 and that's the cut off for being able to select your own unit. Sometimes they have extended it a few days to allow for late registrations in the mail. This year the actual game is one week later in the year so I don't know how that might effect the dealines.

The next deadline is to pick your side - Allies or Germans. Since they want the game balanced, they keep the numbers at a 5:4 ratio (Allied:German). By cutting off your choice of side they can make that work. That ratio seems to work pretty well with the Germans defending and the Allies attacking. The Germans start in possession of 95% of the objectives on the 800 acre field, and it's the Allies mission to take and hold those at specific times.

There is also a deadline for increasing the price from $70 to $100 (for the entire week). That's mostly for walk-ons. The vast majority of people pre-register.

Even after the deadline for unit registration ends, I still suggest that you request the unit of your choice. If they can accomate you, they'll do their best. There's just no gaurantee at that point. Same thing with the deadline for choosing you side.

So we really don't know how many will be in most units until the end. But I know Keith and Scott ar expecting the 2nd Armor Group to fill up. They've done so much good work recruiting around the SE and other parts, they've lined up so many teams, I'd be surprised if they didn't max out. They been working it hard. Keith half track is a big hit and we'll be amazing. The other half-tracks will be cool two. They just won't have Engler reproductions on them.

I hope that helps.

Definitely. Thanks so much guys for being so helpful.

Just got my letter from allied command today. It says to email the head of my unit but I'm thinking he's probably on this forum.
