So long as he isn't watching videos on how to break into a government building dressed as Sam Fisher, you should be fine.
Brilliant.

Re: Atacs Ghost

I see your point. When I discovered NightOps for myself I also tried leaving the house with the mask on, moving slowly and thinking about every next step, taking cover every now and then, sneaking my way to the objective, and sometimes it worked. The feelings you get when another group of late party...

Re: Atacs Ghost

I don't agree with Psychlonic on this one. Cities are very, VERY challenging, though rewarding, environments to be operating in and not only are they becoming more populated these days, but there are more and more CCTV systems popping up everywhere, so staying "totally unseen" is not really an optio...

I use a pair of mechanix M-pact finger-less gloves
Why would you run finger-less gloves on OPs? Don't you worry about leaving them prints?

Re: Wait a second... (DokuWiki)

I always thought that we haven't been using the Library page possibilities to its full extent. Systematization does help a lot.

Your idea sounds really nice. Can't wait to see it in action.

Re: Camouflage vs. Solids - What You Should Choose

Yeah, I also think that going full black is kinda suspicious and adding some tan/camouflage helps. The problem with urban camouflage is that it has to blend in with the environment and at the same time not look too conspicuous. Get 1 grey hoodie I'm not sure about hoodies. I've tried it once on an O...

Re: Mission/Operation Planning

Looks cool but I would definitely add photos. Sometimes right before the operation you feel like you have completely forgotten what the place looks like.

Re: Camouflage vs. Solids - What You Should Choose

A bit late but I face the same problem now when I am buying additional gear. You've already said that a proper camouflage works better that just black but I have some concerns: 1. I operate 95% in highly-urbanized environment of a big city and I can't even say if I should choose Multicam or black. C...

Re: About masks

I've seen Xanatos wearing a mask made out of sniper veil. These usually come in 150x50cm, so normal shemagh/bandana technique doesn't work here. How do you tie them to form a mask? Is it better than a t-shirt mask?

Re: Blogposting

Sounds strange to me. Firstly I don't think that training a single thing for a whole month is a great idea. Skills like lock picking need to practiced on everyday basis because they rely on your muscle memory solely and on the other side, "stealth running", whatever this is, is not worth training th...

Re: Stealth technique-Youtube

If we care for their PERSEC so much, then why would we save these videos and upload them here in the first place?
My point is: if we are doing this, then we should probably make it sorted in the library for people to watch it.

Re: Stealth technique-Youtube

Yeah, I think it was yours playlist Vengeance. Is there a way to upload it somewhere else?

Now that I'm thinking we have a library on this site. Why don't we keep some of Stealth Technique and Shadow Work videos there?

Re: Stealth technique-Youtube

Thanks for the archive. Btw I've seen a playlist of Shadow Work's videos on this site a while ago but I can't find find it now. Would be greatly appreciated if you send it here or in PM.

Re: Is this site dead?

What do you mean by "dead"?
People still post their stories and ideas here. I have a lot of OPs in my mind and I'll try to realize them when the temperature is somewhat normal in my area.
Btw I haven't seen Xanatos' stories for a while even though he comments pretty much everything.
