A great filming day at the Rangemaster 2005 Tactical Conference in Memphis!
Tom Givens, the owner and chief instructor at Rangemaster, runs a hell of a match and conference. One of the things I really liked was Karl Rehn's force-on-force simulations. I heard that Karl did a really good job of running simulations, but I'd never had a chance ot participate. The simulations were excellent...Karl gives the various roleplayers private, and sometimes conflicting, instructions, which adds an element of chaos — sound like the Real World? — into the simulations.
Another thing he does that I really like is he carries the simulations past the point of shooting — what happens when the police come; what happens if new innocents stumble into the situation? It's very good training, and it forces you to think.
Ditto for Tom's stages — always cool when the targets shoot back! That, plus the incredibly informative seminars, makes Tom's annual conference a big bargain. More later...
This is a SHOOTING GALLERY you;'re not going to want to miss! Figure mid-July...
Michael,
ReplyDeleteI had a blast at the conference. Glad to meet you.

Is there a certain skill level that one should be at before attending the Rangemaser Tactical Conference?
