OPS Another big field

Time to create another big field again. Corner portals were Fiets Knooppunt 51 (near Haarlem), Welkom Ibis Schiphol and West - Red Wish Art (Amsterdam near Basisweg). The first two were already linked up and part of another big field towards Schiphol's Bulderbaan. I estimated this field around 15k MU (silly me).

On June 24 I collected keys from the base portals along Schipholweg and was going to make the field, but then the BAF over Europe (Summerbreeze) happened and the plan had to wait.

The next day I left from work at 16:45 and planned my route back home along the S107 (off the A4), clearing a path up through Nieuw-Sloten, Slotervaart and Osdorp. Sadly there were quite some new blockers since the plan's conception, but still a manageable amount.

I had to Jarvis three portals along the way. Sorry to all the proud owners of these. I did not spend time to kill and rebuild them (lazy me) because I was on a tight schedule: home in time for dinner at 18:00.

Eddy8 and Ano Niemp both offered to clear two portals in Osdorp. Finally it was Ano who, after clearing several portals with names very similar to 'Memorial Stone' and 'Meervaart', got the two I needed. Thanks Ano!

MunchnetNL was helping on the intel side of things. He worried me a bit with warnings about blockers but it turned out these were already removed by me, or just about to be removed. Luckily no new blockers went up during this blitzy field operation.

ScarePT was ready at Sloterdijk station to Jarvis the last portal with a blocking link, standing by til the last moment. After I jarvissed 'Rotonde Kabab' I proceeded northwards to the tip of the field, West - Red Wish Art.

I suck at estimating mu

This operation was completed within the hour and I made it home in time for dinner too! Amazing teamwork and my idea is that fast plans like this one are low-risk and high-fun projects. More to come.

OPS Field over Osdorp

On June 3 & 4 2015 I created this 16.890 MU field over Osdorp. It was a single layer field with the corners Amsterdam, West - Spiegelbeeld (Geuzeveld), Arnolduspark (Hoofddorp), Speelplastiek by Josje Smit 1963 (Amsterdam Slotervaart).

The plan started that afternoon:

There are a bunch of P8's in Osdorp. I think I will change my plan and take them down this evening (instead of doing the banner mission 1600)
https://www.ingress.com/intel?ll=52.356594,4.79888&z=16
that's 20 P8's right there
Anybody want to help me?
[Fortifer • Jun 3, 2:07 PM] 

What I used to do in LM was just put a big field over it. 
Make them go to the far away corners. 
Though I doubt that will work in Osdorp as the ankers will be close to someone elses hood 
[MunchnetNL • Jun 3, 3:20 PM]

Will clear and hack in Hoofddorp, then tonight try to complete the field.
It would be useful if there are people in Osdorp tonight or tomorrow morning to remove the green rubbish if this field succeeds (and stands)
[Fortifer • Jun 3, 4:17 PM]

(later that day... Fortifer killed the P8's at the Osdorp waterfront and sneakily cleared a blocker in the process)

Is roolio here?
Osdorp waterfront is down, going to circle to lijnden now
Please kill the other p8, frogs are recharging
[Fortifer • Jun 3, 9:41 PM]

Ben nu in osdorp
[Stefan Piet • Jun 3, 9:43 PM]

Ik ook!
@waterfront
[Roel • Jun 3, 9:44 PM]

(Roel & Stefan start shooting down P8's)

Waar blijft jouw field nou? :-)
Roel • Jun 3, 10:27 PM

Ben aan het opruimen in badhoevedorp
Nog minstens 45 min
(Fortifer • Jun 3, 10:33 PM]

Nobody said it would be easy (-;
[Laurens • Jun 3, 10:33 PM]

Darn, er ligt een link van hoofddorp naar schiphol
En ik moet wachten om keys te hacken op een van de hoeken
Tap tap tap
Weet er nog iemand een mop?
(Fortifer • Jun 3, 11:31 PM]

Pom pom pom
[Roel • Jun 3, 11:31 PM]

You can do it!
[NatachaBabette • Jun 3, 11:34 PM]

Zo die is weg
Kan iemand even kijken of mijn veld nu vrij is? Lastig op telefoon
[Fortifer • Jun 3, 11:56 PM]

Volgens mij is het vrij.
[Laurens • Jun 4, 12:01 AM]

Eerste link ligt
[Fortifer •  Jun 4, 12:12 AM]

Wil als ie ligt wel een screen zien en weten hoeveel mu ie waard was 😉
[Smokey • Jun 4, 12:13 AM]

(Fortifer tries to find his way through the ghetto's of Geuzeveld to the last portal...)

Fukking geuzeveld

[Smokey • Jun 4, 12:40 AM]

I am glad
[Fortifer • Jun 4, 12:40 AM]

Thanks to all the agents that helped and supported me in making this, my first, large field. From now on, making big fields is my main interest in Ingress.
