Its a piece of pi$$. You just have to use common sense. Declare your gear.

"Imitation firearms with no ammo in a lockable case". That is literally what got us through the ferry ports each time. Most times you get priority boarding as well. There is more information on the thread posted above.

I am sure if you ask nicely, that the IAA could give you a letter that could help smooth the way. You could also request a letter of invitation from the site you are travelling to.

• We travel on the 21.15pm Stenaline ferry out of Rosslare.
• We arrive in Fishguard, Wales at 00.30am.

We are all traveling together on a 53 seater coach hired by the club. This coach will bring us to the site, wait and bring us back to the ferry and home. We are getting this for €1000. It makes much more sense than everyone traveling separately and allows us to avail of a good group discount.

SEAC is a non-profit club and is only facilitating / group booking the trip in order to get great value and to have a great time. Therefore all pricing is transparent and explained below. The nature of doing it this way means that the pricing can fluctuate slightly between then and now because of numbers going and exchange rates, etc.

We could have just slapped a €150 a head price on it but EVERYONE PAYS WHAT IT COSTS AND NOT A PENNY MORE.

The Ferry is €32 a head. This covers the ferry, coach an driver. If you want a comfy cabin it'll cost you extra but in the interest of realism, there shouldn't be much comfort on troop transports . This price is based on a minimum of 20.

The Coach is costing €1000. Therefore the cost is to be divided by the amount of us going. 30 lads = €33, 40 lads = €25, 50 lads = €20. The capacity of the coach is 53 people.

The Site cost is also based on the amount of us going. 30 lads = £55/€61, 40 lads = £45/€50, 50 lads = £35/€39.

Examples of cost based on the amounts going follow...

30-39 People:
Ferry €32 Coach €33 Site €62 - TOTAL: €127
Payable: €60 deposit + €36 the day of going + £27.50/€31 at the site

40-49 People:
Ferry €32 Coach €25 Site €50 - TOTAL: €107
Payable: €60 deposit + €22 the day of going + £22.50/€25 at the site

50+ People:
Ferry €32 Coach €20 Site €40 - TOTAL: €92
Payable: €60 deposit + €11.50 the day of going + £17.50/€19.50 at the site

YOUR SEAT IS NOT GUARANTEED UNTIL YOUR DEPOSIT IS PAID

All prices are correct at the time of posting.

From Dublin to Wexford (bus)

Reading, UK


FRI 6/11/09 – 16.39pm


Mr. Goose and his team enter the Barclay’s Bank branch at 130/131 Friar Street. They successfully lock down the bank and gain access to the vault. Several of the team fill black hold-alls with cash and jewelry. They leave the bank at 4.48pm and are met by the first of the Police on scene. The getaway car is disabled in the ensuing firefight and the robbers fall back into an adjacent abandoned shopping centre.


SAT 7/11/09 – 02.30am


Mr. Goose and his team have been holed up in the abandoned ‘Friars St.’ shopping mall all night. Police reconnaissance has determined that the team of bank robbers has extensive military training and that they have ‘dug in’.


SAT 7/11/09 – 8.15am


Det. Mackey and his ‘Strike Team’ arrive on scene. The FBI is also in attendance in an ‘advisory capacity’. Mackey’s tactical analysis…”If we don’t go in hard and fast now, we’re going to have to level the building to get ‘em out”


SAT 7/11/09 – 9.30am


The ‘Strike Team’ is given a green light and ‘deadly force’ is authorized…


GAME ON…

C'mon lads, that's some value to play on an amazing CQB site over in the UK for about the same amount of money you'd drop on a night out.

Just to confirm some of the site rules...

1. Site FPS Limits
   328fps (+5% variance) on ALL RIF's. (With 0.2g BBs) Chronograph will be in operation at the start and during the day. For normal days, unless advertised otherwise, there are no ammo/mag capacity limits. Some areas of the game area will be single shot only, therefore RIF's that are incapable of firing on single shot will not be allowed in those areas.
   
2. Pyrotechnics Rules
   Only pyrotechnics sold by First & Only or made by TLSFx will be allowed on site. BFG's are allowed but only with 9mm blanks, 6mm short Blanks or caps. Only non-toxic or non-military smokes can be used on site with a max burn of 6o sec and have no effect other than screening. A grenade or thunderflash going off in a room means instant kill to all occupants unless behind hard cover (concrete wall, barrier etc). In larger and open areas, a grenade will instant kill every player within 15ft radius unless behind hard cover (concrete wall, barrier etc).
   

On-Site Facilities

Working power sockets, lighting, Men & Women's toilets, kitchen, shop, onsite battery charging, changing areas and dedicated customer car parking. The on-site shop will sell BB's, Pyrotechnics, gas and a range of other Airsoft equipment.
