If anybody wants to share hotel rooms, please organise between yourselves
 
I'm up for sharing with 1 person (male for obvious reasons), so if you're interested in a room share let me know.

Something like that.

Thanks! Looking forward to it 

Except if Eddtheduck shows up. He's got dibs too

Like I said. First come first served. No problem

Generally our fest are open for all to join. Member or not. The point of the fest is to have fun with a bunch of idiots. Doesn't take a clan to make an idiot (just an xtreme one though!). hah
 
For non-members it's a good chance for them to get to see a side of the clan some never do and might convince them to hang around more

Sign me up!

I have to say that the hassle of booking rooms en masse did give us better rates and also it locked down comers (mostly) because once you sign up and someone's money is in play, you're less capable of simply bailing out at the last minute.
But this works for me.
 
I haven't decided on fly or drive yet, I might drop by my step sister on the way up and take the duckmobile. If I do, I will b eable to ferry up to two idiots plus JohnRambo to and/or from an airfield to the hotel and back. (I owe JR a ride after York. Everyone else is first come first serve and if you're over 6ft you're going to have a BAD fucking day sitting behind my tall ass).
 
Are we opening this up to regulars who aren't members again this year, or are we strictly members-only this time around? I have a feeling some of the Battlefield regular Zonks might be inclined to show up for a few beers.

If suggest before hand if possible. Going after is going to be more expensive because school holiday prices kick in.

Ok, so to avoid any hassle, a handful of us in discussion on teamspeak, said it would be easier for everyone to book their own rooms. If you want to share with someone, then please discuss with said person and arrange payments to each other so you can book the room.
 
The date is the 21st to the 23rd July 2017.
 
The hotel venue is the intercity hotel Hauptbahnhof in Berlin city centre near Tegel airport.
 
For anyone interested, the best prices around £149 (€170) for the 2 nights for a room with a double bed or 2 twin beds. These are the non-refundable options. The free cancellation options add an extra £30 (€35).
 
Flights should be in to Tegel airport to minimise the taxi costs to the hotel.
 
Flights from the UK are around £140 (€165) at the minute from Heathrow.
 
Flights from Newcastle are around £195 (€245).
 
Flights from Stockholm are around €145
 
Flights from Oslo are around €160
 
Flights from Copenhagen are around €95
 
Flights from Rome are around €210
 
Flights from Bucharest are around €200
 
Flights from Paris are around €140
 
Flights from Dublin are around €210
 
Flights from Schippol are around €150
 
These are all flying into Tegel. If you fly to the other airport, it will likely be cheaper but the taxi fayre is going to be around €20 each way from the southern airport to the hotel, so weigh that in your decision of where you fly too.
 
People that are a yes so far.

Some people are sick of playing 9 year old games, if all you Cod4 lot could run BF1 you would all be playing it now.

Well firstly...was that a guy or a girl...2ndly, why?

Well firstly...was that a guy or a girl...2ndly, why?

Many soldiers sign up over here because they believe they're fighting to protect our land. The problem with that is, the cut backs in our armed services budget has seen our forces cut from 200k Army, 200k Navy (including Royal Marines) and 150k Airforce totalling around 550k in the 60s and 70s, where now it is 140k active army and 40k reserves ready to give us 180k personnel ready to go.
 
Secondly they're in some godforsaken country fighting for control of resources or establishment of a puppet government, which does what the main invading government asks.

I am mistaken and you're correct.

Matunixe I tried to play BF4 a few times but it's always dead. BF1 seems to be the way now.

You will need to still do the thermal pad on the power conducter because the water cooling doesn't touch that

Righty, a lot of people have said a lot of things about what happens when you complete the single player game...here is what you get. My advice, go through on hard first to just do the missions, then repeat on easy to pick everything else up.
 
1x Mauser C96 "His lordship" skin (Mission 1: For mud and blood - completed with all field manuals and codex on hard)
 
1x Auto Revolver "Straight Flush" skin (Mission 2: Friends in high places - completed with all field manuals and codex on hard)
 
1x Cei Rigotti "Fianne Verde" skin (Mission 3: Avotti Savoie (is that right?) - completed with all field manuals and codex on hard)
 
1x Howdar Pistol "Frontiersman" skin (Mission 4: The runner - completed with all field manuals and codex on hard)
 
1x Russian 1895 Rifle "Desert Dweller" skin (Mission 5: Nothing is written - completed with all field manuals and codex on hard)
 
1x Landship "Black Best" skin. (all field manuals and codex have to be collected on all missions and game finished on all missions on hard)
 
1x Mercie Gunner "Trench Clearer" skin (Watch the epilogue and let the cast and crew credits complete through without skipping)
 
As for any round boosts....I've yet to have it apart from being on a winning side.

 
Here I am...very tired...4 hours sleep since Saturday...got to love caffeine and teething kids [emoji30]

Warbonds... Lol

Me and my girlfriend is down as well!

Jay...I kid you not, I showed that to Edd and I called them earlier! They're willing to do a group discount on a group of 20, but that's an upfront payment which frankly I can't afford.
