Overview: The FCS Mega-Skirmish will incorporate stealthy squad-based gameplay on the Friday night, adrenaline-packed head-to-head gameplay on the Saturday morning, and intense tactical operations on Saturday afternoon. Numbers are kept small to allow players more options in how they tackle their objectives, and our renowned squad-mechanics and emphasis on communication encourages players to work as a well-organised unit (as opposed to a horde of gun-toting kamikazees). An ammo limit of 300 rounds per game also means that players are encouraged to pick their shots wisely, rather than spray and pray. Whether you’re a sneaky ninja, a dynamic gunslinger, or a devious tactician, there will be something at this event for everyone.
