So step one, go to the local games and see what the crew is wearing. A lot of times that'll be clue one in the safe area. Clue two comes into play when you get on the field. Now you start looking for the folks you can't see and what they are wearing. Then you can see what pattern you're going to want for where you are.
If you're really into this you'll wind up with a closet full of gear so if you really want the Italian stuff, grab it up.
On Multicam, it's designated as "Crye Precision Combat Uniform" in the US military. Stuff that isn't used doesn't get a name. Who gets to wear it and when hinges on the CO's state of mind. Folk in the world of airsoft have really jumped on the bandwagon, but once you perform the "who can't I see test" it starts to look pretty popular.

Definitely agree with you there. I think multicam would work a hell of a lot better in the desert than ACU, but for some reason the recycled newspaper pattern won in the end. Bah.
All HT uses are the old-school US Army Woodland and Tri-Colour patterns, with Coyote-coloured gear. It's worked well for us so far. I try to keep an open mind, though - if I ever see something that would really work well, I'll bring it to the attention of the boys.
