GRUPPO KALAG is a dedicated OPFOR airsoft team. Our impression
represents as the paramilitary operatives against and or representing real-world treats and their tactics depending on the game scenario.
As an OPFOR unit we sometimes represents as special forces or clandestine fighters against real world treats as well as filling the niche of the “opposing side”, the Guerillas, Resistance, Rebels, Insurgents, Freedom Fighters and groups branded as “the bad guys” or Terrorists.
As the OPFOR the mission of Gruppo KALAG is to emulate these real-world threats in airsoft games and skirmishes as well as MILSIM/TACSIM operations: be a plausible, flexible force using a composite of actual worldwide forces.
In addition, we also emulate USSR and Soviet forces in Cold War era and the new Federation Forces to complete our sense of an OPFOR team.
Brief History of OPFOR:
During the Cold War the OPFOR was a threat-based sparring partner for American soldiers who were training to fight waves of communists. Doctrine was taken straight from Warsaw Pact manuals. But that threat crumbled with the Berlin Wall in 1989.
Today's OPFOR no longer fights scenarios with template Soviet maneuvers. Instead, the field manuals adopted a capabilities-based approach to mirror current world treat situations.
As an OPFOR, Gruppo KALAG is constantly innovating or updating so that we're not a predictable airsoft force.
“we'll pose as many threats and challenges as we can. We'll overwhelm them and, if they are successful, we'll raise the bar."
Team Background
Gruppo Kalag started as a group of friends playing with single bolt ACMs back in late 2004, eventually forming a team as "Ghost Platoon" back then with the growing of the local ACM airsoft community in 2005. We are based in Cebu City, Philippines.
By early 2006, we were loosely known as the 'KALAGs" meaning ghosts or spirits in our dialect the term stuck so instead of Ghost we rename our team as Gruppo (group) Kalag. With the new designation we also started to dedicate ourselves as OPFORs and started to collect the appropriate gears.
We love doing unconventional forces impressions and having fun in airsoft events and games.
Preferred main airsoft arms: AK47 variants.
Secondary arms: m4 variants
Team Impressions so far:
Abu Sayaf, NPA and other Militias
Desert Warriors or Middle-Eastern Insurgents/freedom fighters
CIA-Special Activities Division ( Afghan impression)
Mujahedin/Taliban and Other Coalition Forces (OCF)
Vietcong and North Vietmin Army
NEW!:
Soviet and Russian impressions.
We do not involve in any politics, we do not discriminate anybody, and we do not condone to violence. These guns are replica only and we used these impressions just to have fun and to scare the socks off of the airsoft "good Guys" aside from participating in weekend games and large OPs.
