USMSC at MegaCon 2012

We had a blast at MegaCon this year with Mindgame Productions and the United States Marine Space Corps in Orlando, FL. Some of my favorite moments, captured here:

MindGame Productions is the longest running airsoft-events company on the east coast. Established in early 2005, MGP is based in Florida with team members spread through Florida, Georgia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Texas. Company events have been focused in Florida, but MGP has also run events in Ohio, Indiana and is always looking for opportunities to develop new events in the south-east.

The USMSC is an organization for fans of the military sci-fi genre. Whether you're a fan of military sci-fi authors, or you love films or tv shows such as Aliens, Starship Troopers, Stargate-1, BSG and others... all are welcome in the USMSC. Our organization celebrates the comraderie, drama, epic struggle and the horror of the military experience as realized in everything sci-fi.

USMSC, TerrorWerks @MegaCon

TerrorWerks is ON! The U.S.M.S.C is in da' house @MegaCon, Orange County Convention Center, Hall D. If you are in the area, please stop by and check it out.

If you've ever played Call of Duty, Doom, Duke Nukem, or any first-person shooter video games, and wondered what it would be like to experience the pulse-pounding adrenaline rush of combat (without actually risking life and limb), then swing by the TerrorWerks booth - West concourse, Room W221a and b:

1-7pm today (Friday, March 25)
10-6 pm Saturday, March 26
10-5 pm Sunday, March 27

Sign up for a quick tour of duty (about 45 minutes) with the USMSC (United States Marines Space Corps)! We provide the gear - tactical vest and airsoft rifle - so you can test your abilities in simulated combat. If you survive, you can call yourself a USMSC grunt! Our recruiters are walking around MegaCon, looking for a few good candidates. Just look for the handsome guys in dark digital camo with a tactical vest on, and they can show you the way.

Gearing up for MegaCon!

MegaCon is March 25th - 27th, 2011, Orange County Convention Center Hall D, 9800 International Drive, Orlando, FL 32819.

Hello Children! Welcome back to Galaxy News Radio... with your host... Three-Dog!

Well we've all been hearing a lot of talk about the Republic of Dave. From what I hear, an increasing Deathclaw infestation out of Old Olney uprooted Dave from his old homestead and this self-proclaimed head-of-state is looking for new followers and a new place to call... well... I guess call the Republic of Dave. All I know is that the central Capital Wastes are a pretty dangerous spot and I hope Dave has some serious fire-power to back him up or I think the Republic of Dave is going to see more armies storming back and forth across it than Poland.

I know a lot of us have been getting worried about those Slavers out of Paradise Falls. But the Three-Dog is here to help shed a little light on that gloom and doom. The Regulators have upped their presence in the Central Wastelands and I hear that they are establishing an outpost out of the MDPL-11 Power Plant. Believe they have a couple merchants that have set up shop down there as well so it looks like the long arm of the Law in the Wasteland is helping to do its part to bring some stability to our lives.

Little public service announcement people... in order to help the Wasteland Census and make sure there is ample food and missions for everybody... I can't stress just how important it is to pre-register. And that just doesn't mean posting on a forum that you and those mangy shooters you call your posse are coming... but actually pre-register online and pay for your admission. Lunch counts, staffing and mission planning is all driven by pre-registration. It'll save you some pre-war money... but it's an important courtesy for both Waynes World and MGP... your gracious hosts of this little apocalyptic blight we call the Capital Wastes.

In the meantime... get to repairing your wasteland outfits and armor... make sure those weapons are working and be sure to look around your own personal homestead for any pre-war relics you can't live without... but that you think our wasteland merchants may want to buy from you.

And now... a little music... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsxJmzkX63c&feature=related

IMPORTANT! The Wasteland series of events have lots of action but are NOT traditional MilSim games. Strict uniform/costume restrictions will be in effect to recreate the setting of the game. Please read the Survival Guide (Players Pack) and review the forums for more information on factions and uniforms allowed at this event.
