My largest was 7v4 and my team won easily 4-0. My toughest was a 2v4-when you put in 6 experienced players it makes for a very interesting game. Despite being outnumbered and on the defensive most of the time, we won
5-4, taking a 2-1 lead at the beginning and barely holding on.

For me, it was a FFA involving somewhere between 40-60 people, but only about 35-45 water blasters. Those without blasters made use of pretty much anything they could from plastic cuts to an entire cooler of ice water being dumped on an unsuspecting victim. :goofy:

About 3 vs 7, and I only had pump action squirt guns :(

That summer I went out and bought a CPS 2700, and never got a chance to use it in a big battle again.

Water War 3 to be precise. 11-12 vs 3. We got soaked by the 3. Never underestimate what determination and athleticism can do.

Mine was 4 v 5. I won the 5 even though they had more people and firepower.

Let's see... probably around 30 people, but I've been in several battles that big.

Who do you play with? I've tried to get more people to fight with but most of the people think it"s for little kids.

My team is composed of all kinds of people. Jockish, nerdish, and in between. The youngest age in the Ridgewood Militia is 16, so water fights are NOT just for little kids. Almost all of the members will be turning 17 this school year, including myself, and the team is only getting larger. The only person who won't turn 17 will be turning 18 instead. :p

I have never actually been ridiculed for having water wars. The attitudes are different in this area.

The largest battle i have ever been in was back in 2003 it was a 7v7 soak fest. Me and my friends against some high school kids. Since it was a soakfest it was difficult to select a winner.

My biggest ever was at a friend's Tang Soo Do picnic. There was about 50 kids there ranging from 6 years old to 15 or 16. A pretty good range of weapons too. Max D's and CPS 2100s and even a couple 1000s. My "team" (Leprekan, My brother, Me, This other girl, her cousin) were armed with 2 MD 5000s, 1 2100, 2 1000s, 1 Monster X, 1 WBL. It was extremely fun.

We don't battle in May, but we do have as many wars as possible during June-September. If there is a time you're interested, by all means come! USSA once wanted to attend a Waterbridge-Ridgewood Militia war, but disappeared from online soaking. Tech, tactics, and everything else typical of hardcore teams is present. We don't go overboard with camo, but in a special war that could change. If you do decide to come up, which team would you choose to fight with? :p

All the 5 years I've been in Elementry school, we have a HUGE soakfest for hours at the end of the year! Dang they were fun!

My largest ever was 80+ ppl (maybe even over 100), about 2 or more of these every year whenever we feel like. Needless to say, everyone was saturated. :) People just love water fights here.

No idea, maybe because there're too many overprotective parents who lodge complaints if their kids' cry after getting soaked by big guns (by another little kid) and they're more inclined to blame the equipment rather than the other kid's bad marksmanship.

If you go up to your average friend here, he/she probably would join in the water fight if he/she (more likely he, but no offense) had time. Of course, tell him the details, don't give him the idea that everyone just stands there and gets each other wet.

The battle was organized by my U.Y.O., so it was easy to get interested people (yes we have a lot of people). Hot weather here too, so.. yeah.

It was those stupid overprotective parents who got rid of the cps 2000.

Maybe in early August then, since I'm working during the Summer, and I go back to school mid August. As far as teams are concerned... you'll just have to wait and see mwahahahaha.
