Guide: Part IX - Water Combat Team - Munitions Officer
PROFILE - MUNITIONS OFFICER: The munitions officer is
vital for any water combat team. Good mun. officers are able to carry good
amounts of water and able to refill basically any water weapon quickly
and efficiently. The mun. officers role is vital since, without water,
the combat team would find their weapons being left high and dry while
the enemy easily drenches them until they are cold and wet.
Since the mun. officer's job is to watch over the stockpile of ammo,
their job is to guard the water supply and ensure water bottles, water
balloons, back-up weapons, etc. are filled and ready for use. Typically,
mun. officers end up guarding the base (if there is one) or water bottle
supplies when the team is on the move. As the enemy may find filled water
bottles a good target to go for, the mun. officer should be aware and be
well-armed to deal with any incursions into friendly space.
TIPS:
- should maintain group's supply of water bottles, water balloons,
back-up weapons, etc.
- must be familiar with various methods of loading water weapons quickly
and efficiently
- must always work for the good of the team
SUGGESTED WEAPONRY: Can use any weapon type, but munitions officer's
role is defend more than attack. A good medium-to-large-sized weapon would
be recommended.
SUGGESTED NON-STANDARD EQUIPMENT:
- walkie-talkies if available
- lots of empty 500mL, 1L, 2L bottles
- water balloons
