Are YOU part of a local water warfare team/group?

This thread is for light team descriptions of current water warfare groups/teams. If you've got a team, please list it below. Include its name, approximate number of members, and rough geographical location (largest nearby city or even just State/Province and Country; please do NOT post any specific personal information on the forums). Feel free to also include any other miscellaneous information you think others might enjoy i.e. aspects of armoury, number of battles this year, primary opponents, etc.

Soak on!

I am the General of a rapidly growing team in Vermont, The Maple Mountain Marines.
Our army is still growing, but we currently have 8 members and hold meetings once a month at my place, on the upper part of a mountain in the West-Topsham county, which is about a half-hour drive from the capital of VT, Montpelier.

Our current battle field is 2 acres in size (ya, kind of small) and has two bases. A Tree-House at one end and a Fort at the other.

I am currently working on clearing a path going straight up the mountain and across a large Plato (wide, flat and mostly open area) at the top.
Once the path has made a complete square around approximately 7 acres of forest, we (My family and I) will run a fence line around the whole thing, then open it up for our herd of pigs to graze on. The pigs will clear underbrush, smoothen out the whole area and make winding paths through the forrest, which makes it an ideal forest battle-ground.
I then plan to construct a large, log, fortress on the upper south corner of the plato. This will be our teams main base, we will conduct training operations from there and if attacked by another team, this will be our stronghold.

We have no enemies to fight at the moment, but I'm trying to encourage some people in Western VT to start one of their own.

In addition to our small armory of Water guns, we have one working C-class (Light artillery) Douchenator WBL and one D-class (Heavy artillery) WBL which is currently in construction.

No teams for me, all I currently do is invite people for fights a few times a year (haven't really gotten it to work that well, this is my first year) and arrange the teams (if necessary) when the event starts. All the weapons we have that may be for use:

SC 400
MaxD 5k, Secret Strike*
CPS 1000, 1200, 2000*, 2100, 2500*, 2700
Oozinator, 2 Flash Floods
4 squirt guns
Blastmaster 660*
XP 310*, 70*
SS 50*

*Not owned by me

Edit: Updated.

We have some "teams", but before I go into that, I'd better briefly explain the situation. The mass of people happens to be a Uniformed Youth Organisation (UYO). The company consists of 4 wings, each about 25+ strong, each is led by a wing commander. There is already a rank system in place, I myself am a sergeant. Each wing consists of 4 squads of about 6-8 people, led by a wing NCO.
Because of this, we can have some pretty interesting battles. 2v2 CTF, 1v3 King of the Hill (see the map I posted for the hill), Star Wars (where teams have to find pieces of R2-D2 and build a spaceship), Nightgames, 1v1v1v1 mayhem, etc.

Besides the 4 wings, there are some ad-hoc water fight societies made of members of different wings:
Rangers
Stormtroopers

Local circuit size: No formal teams

Roster: 100+ people (all guys)
Calibre: Depends (when we feel like fighting serious with tactics and all, we just do it)
Battlefield: School complex (it's always big enough)
Organization: Anything from disorganized hordes to mobile tactical squads
Primary gametype: I guess it could be considered 1HK
Commanders: Either nobody or a few of us (I shouldn't mention names)
Wars per year: About 5 though not everybody participates in all, wars involving everybody happen about twice a year
Tactics: Personally I subscribe to fluid tactics but sometimes we just don't really care. Especially with so many to convey orders to.

Armoury: Once impressive, with 3 CPS 2500s, and someother CPSs (can't remember)
Now,
1 x CPS 2500
1 x CPS 3000
4 x Vaporizers
1 x Helix
1 x Liquidator
1 x XP Backfire
1 x XP 110 (nozzle broke, so now it's a great shotgun)
10 x Generic guns (standing arms)
A lot more generic guns (belonging to people)
1 x WBL
At least 3000 water bombs, scattered in the company storeroom, people's houses (most of the army is grenadiers, tactics change to accomodate that)

Equipment:
Lots of shields
Lots of light body armour
We were going to build a tank, but a bulldozer ran over the frame. sad.gif

Distinctions:
- Err, we're potentially very big?
- Very varied, there is some of every era and calibre.
- Use a lot of water bombs due to gun shortage.
- Use and pioneer urban armoured tactics.

Where are you located?

by **SilentGuy** on Fri Nov 24, 2006 3:52 pm

He's in Singapore--same as hamster from WWc. Nice to see you here, by the way.

by **mr. dude** on Sat Feb 03, 2007 8:41 pm

Croc and I, as well as another few friends of ours, form a team of 3-4 (I still don't know if the fourth guy wants to be on Croc's team).
Our armoury lacks any real punch:
MI FF+ 1 MI aquapack
x2 Blazer
x2 Splat Blaster
Lightning
Scorpion
EX 630 (Croc has a review on it somewhere)
Max-D 5k
XP 110
Hydroblade
Gremlin
Yellow Jacket
Xenon
Many squirt pistols
Piston homemade
FF?
Krypton?
/APH\
/CPH\
?=belongs to our fourth member
/\=still in progress
I might have missed a few things, but you get the picture.

We fight around my neighbourhood or at a park.

Well, Waterbridge is still here in New Jersey, though to be honest, we're doing pretty poorly these days. Waterbridge was founded in 2002 and has been here ever since, though we have fallen behind our upstart rivals, the Ridgewood Militia, by alot. The official roster has over 20 members, but we have a chronic problem fielding more than 4. Equipment is another problem, with few members being able to field their own weaponry. We're going to give this season, or last, one good push before we all go off to college.

The enemy commanders have told me that Waterbridge and the Ridgewood Militia are the model teams on the continent, so I suppose its about time we got our act together and started kicking some butt!

My team is the M.W.D.N.E (The Mighty Water Dragons of New England) we currently have 5 permaent guys and a few recruits in training. We are mainly located in Holden Ma but we have 2 other forts in Worcester Ma just south of Holden. We are always looking for new recruits but before you join you have to pass our training. It's not to be mean it's just we want them to be ready for the battles

My team, the Star Eagles, consists of soakerman, and a few of my cousins. Most of the time, though, we just fight with each other because there's no one else to battle. That might change this year, though! :goofy:
