    Is this a TA event? I had heard rampant rumours from people there, that there was some mad game coming up that would have civilians in the gamezone...as civilians. But from the looks of this it is not TA, looks interesting though, although the date will not suit me :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 269 ✭✭ASI Casper


    Nope, not a TA Events game. It's by 'First & Only Airsoft'.

    I'd imagine the 'civvies' will be garnered from the ranks of LARPs ( Live Action RolePlayers ). Sure there'll be something similar at Berget. There's a 'civilian' team for it.

    I'll not be at this event as the dates don't suit me either. I'll hopefully be in the Lake District that weekend.

    I'll do this if there's a gang going.

    EDIT: It's on 2 weeks after berget. Remember that right now it's 2 weeks after PR3. Wouldn't you go and play an auld game in Sennybridge right about now, yeah? You would, wouldn't you. Make it happen.

    Can't do this myself, since I'm attending a wedding in July in France, so that's that out for me.

    According to the thread, there are only 150 places for this event. There will be 4 commands. Prices vary from 85 to 100GBP.

    While there will be lots of interest, I doubt many of us will be able to afford this so soon after Berget. Remember that there's also a game scheduled for Copehill Down in mid-August. So many games, so little time.

    BTW, this event has been in my calendar for aaaages :)
