If you have a piston soaker such as a Stream Machine, bring a cooler and plastic container for filling water with that can double as a supply box before you fill it with water. If you have a pool, that's even better since simple piston soakers won't be affected by chlorinated water.

I'd take at least 20 litres of water, which would be stored in a variety of different sized bottles from 600mL to 3L. Around 30 already filled water bombs stored in an esky, along with about 100 that aren't filled. I would also take some food, drink and a portable water bomb filler, as well as a portable QFD if I had one.

How about clothing? In a casual water war, you usally wear regualr clothes or swimwear. However, in an extended water war, especially in a location such as a forest, what would you bring to wear? Many of the old-timers here like to wear camo or other military-style outdoor gear. I'd like to go to an army surplus store and get a green army jacket.

For water fights I prefer to wear cargo pants and a t-shirt (usually sleeveless). Cargo pants give me more options in terms of carrying things, and they protect my legs from mosquitos (which is a big thing where I live). And I always, ALWAYS, wear dark colors.

I often wear a dark windbreaker in a water war but I usually end up taking it off because the sun's heat would make it very uncomfortable. The plus side was that a water balloon that struck me on the side didn't get me wet. Other than that, I just wear swimpants and sandals.

Praise the almighty one if I could have a war big enough like that last 3 hours. If it were to last that one, obviously bring along a portable base or set camp up in a base you built. You may want to bring some food, like Peanut butter crackers or something, but Id bring a huge store of ammo if were to far away from a hose. Bring backpacks for each soldier, and make sure they have the basics, and maybe some towels to dry off. Always bring a big stockpile of backup blasters, and containers (buckets anyone?
) for water balloons being stored for over a couple of hours already made. With that let the games begin!

a 3 hour war huh? If it was me, I would just bring a few things.
Extra drinks just in case I get thirsty.
A multi tool that is 100% waterproof. Some multi tools are only water resistance, like the Leatherman Wave.
That is about all... You really don't need alot of supplies to last three hours. Three hours is not three days.
For carrying stuff, I would just use a backpack that is water proof. I would leave all my "non water warfare" items, like food, in my base so it won't slow me down. Just hope your friends won't rob your food than you should be okay.
