Strike Back Events wanted everyone to know about their open house day, hey there’s a free BBQ and brews going!
Strike Back Events are hosting an open house day on the 8th April 2023 at their new outdoor grassed field CQB site on the edge of Bishops Waltham in Hampshire.
This is a free event and a BBQ lunch will be available at lunchtime with limited numbers, free tea, coffee and hot chocolate will also be available, other refreshments will be available to purchase.
Afternoon games will be held for anyone that brings their own kit.
RAP4 are holding a realistic tactical game which will use mag fed markers:
Time is running out to hold your spot in this summer’s hottest tactical game, "Operation: End War – The 11th Hour," held at Battlefront Paintball in Hubbard, Ohio, this July 27-28. Real Action Paintball is proud to be the founding sponsor of this revolutionary scenario game, which pits players against each other using only magazine-fed markers in a true test of tactical skill.
"Operation: End War – The 11th Hour" will be produced by .68 Caliber Productions, who produce a host of wildly popular events throughout the summer. From World War I and II –themed games to this event’s futuristic global conflagration, the staff at .68 Caliber Productions is experienced in putting together topnotch events that players love.
.68 Caliber Productions and Real Action Paintball are working hard with Battlefront Paintball to bring this game to life on their extraordinary field…and to reward players with some extraordinary perks. The field is an old gunpowder manufacturing plant that suffered a catastrophic explosion decades ago and was abandoned, left to be reclaimed by nature. When the field opened, they cut back some of the foliage and carefully created a tactical paintball dream field where partially destroyed buildings, thick forests, log bunkers, watchtowers, and other terrain features combine to make a fantastic post-apocalyptic field that ideally fits the storyline.
We’ll get the weekend kicked off on Friday, July 27th, with an amazing clinic put on by local SWAT team members. Check in, pitch your tent – you get free camping access all weekend long with your preregistration – then grab your gear for the "SWAT for Dummies" course.
Don’t have a magazine-fed marker to bring to the game? No sweat – you can reserve a mag-fed marker package from RAP4 when you preregister…which is, incidentally, the only way to make sure the field will have a mag-fed marker package for you when you arrive. Your rental package will include an MKV mag-fed marker, three magazines, mag pouches, a tactical belt, and an HPA tank. Bring your own goggles or rent some at the field, and you’ll be all set.
The "SWAT for Dummies" course will also include an overview on the proper use of your MKV marker, so that when it’s time to run through their drills, you have the familiarity you need to get straight into the action.
Then on Saturday is the big event, pitting teams against each other on the amazing Battlefront Paintball field as you vie for global dominion. Have yourself a nice cookout that night, and stick around for Sunday, when players are invited to a day-long open play extravaganza – have a rematch with your opponents from the day before. Use the tips and tricks you learned on Saturday. Have another adventure…
…and once you fall in love with the MKV marker you carried through "Operation: End War – The 11th Hour," you don’t have to leave it behind – you can purchase it after the game, and even put your rental package fee towards the purchase price as a nice discount!
Brit Tac Events have emailed in the details for OP:OCEAN FURY AT SENNYBRIDGE FIBUA 7-9th September 2012
OP: Ocean Fury Somalia: Port city of Kismayo 3rd August 2012
Kismayo is a key asset for the Somalian pirate gangs, allowing supplies to reach areas under their control and providing a lawless heaven for their operations, and it is believed that Kismayo harbours the main banking operation channelling ransom money to the Al-Shabaab terrorist organisation, the loss of this facility will de-stabilise the pirate operations on the gulf of Somalia undermine support for Al-Shabaab in Somalia.
5th August 2012 Amisom troops begin combat operations to bring Kismayo under control of the Somali government, this has been met by brutal opposition and the realisation of a government controlled Kismayo looks bleak
10th August 2012
In the course of their combat operations, Amisom have, however, located several alarming pieces of intelligence that hint towards a large scale Al-Shabaab planned attack on the West. Despite their best efforts they have not been able to gather any further solid intelligence relating to the method or timings of the planned attack.
In light of the worsening tactical position of the Amisom forces and the possibility of a terror attack on a scale not seen since 9/11, the International Community is now paying much closer scrutiny to the region.
15th August 2012 An urgently devised Classified U.N mandate is passed to provide JSOC assistance to the Amisom forces, Combat Troops from the U.S and U.K have been put on stand by to be despatched to the region with the operational goal of bringing the Southern port city of Kismayo under the control of Amisom and the Somali Government.
The operation will be a “Black OP” spearheaded by U.K Special Boat Service Troopers and U.S Navy Seals, with the aim of sweeping through the city to locate and secure any intelligence relating to the planned terror attack and, if possible to capture (Dead or Alive) the Al-Shabaab leader Ahmed Abdi Godane. This will coincide with a with an assault conducted by Amisom troops, whose aim is to destroy Al-Shabaab’s operational capability at ground level by targeting the Somali pirate gangs, Al-Shabaab fighters and their assets.

Dragon Valley Airsoft are running their "Year Of The Dragon" weekender on 2nd-3rd June at Caerwent Training Facility near Chepstow in South Wales. The event will take in a rather larger area of the base than the area used for regular Dragon Valley games.
For this year’s event we’ve chosen a present day setting and a WWIII theme; Chinese forces raiding communication hubs around the globe in an effort to erode western dominance of the information superhighway.
"Year Of The Dragon" will bring a rolling campaign over an area of 150+ acres containing over 30 buildings and other structures, banks, wooded areas, ditches, railway lines, roads, tunnels, you name it!
Gameplay will involve the two sides in a pitched battle for control of key areas, and also for control of the all important communications infrastructure that modern society is so reliant upon. Where would we be without the World Wide Web, social networks, mobile phones and SMS messaging? All of these will be pivotal to success in the "Year Of The Dragon" campaign. Of course, we’ll also be throwing in a big helping of props and enough pyro to keep Guy Fawkes happy. We’ll have daylight until late into the evening, so Saturday will be packed with more airsofting than any sane person could need, followed by more on Sunday!
Cost for two packed days of play is £75 (£25 deposit, £50 on arrival at the event). Camping on site is available, car parking will be adjacent to the camping area which is very close to the game area – so no 3 mile forced marches carrying full kit.
There’s loads more info, maps and photos of the game area, plus booking details at www.dragonvalley.co.uk/yotd

Hi, We would be grateful if you could let your viewers know of our 5 Man CQB Open Competition at Sopley Camp, which is an old RAF Base near Bournemouth, Hampshire. Pathfinder Group Military Simulations are holding this event between 31st March at 10.00am until 1st April at 16.30pm.

C3 TACTICAL have sent over details of their upcoming zombie LARP fest. The amount of thought that’s gone into it is evidenced by their thorough documentation and planning. The event starts on the 30th:
We C3 lads have an exciting new game starting at the end of the month called Dead & Alive. Its a zombie survival game with a difference[..].
It combines airsoft and LARP(ish) elements for a progressive zombie game that sees players advancing a character as they complete missions and objective based puzzles.
It also allows for zombie players to progress, we didn’t want to leave the poor souls out!
In addition to our regular Sunday missions, we are working with Tier 1 again to bring you some more involved combat experiences.
For those who want to take their gaming a little more seriously, to face the challenges and reap the rewards, the following events should fit the bill!!
1st/2nd October – Training / Milsim Weekend with Tier 1
28th/29th/30th October – Operation Warpath Pt 2 by Tier 1 (come hunt the Taliban some more !)
Due to the success (and good fun had by all) at the previous MA events, there has been an unprecedented demand for places for this Arnies social event, even though the event is not until March 19-20!
20 of the 30 available spaces have already been booked up, so if you are considering coming, decide soon to avoid disappointment.
Regulars Only?
The event is open to all Morning After / Arniegeddon veterans as well as any member with the ‘Forum Regular’ status.
If you have not had a chance to take part in previous Arnies events and do not have enough posts to have Forum Regular status, don’t worry – find two of the regulars attending to vouch for you, or, if a friend is already attending, they can vouch for you.
But why?
This may seem like an odd approach, but the emphasis at MA is fun above all else.
Many players have attended huge (50+) social events before. While the scale is usually impressive, invariably the actual overall experience had by all is not. MA aims to ensure that, through having a small group of fun-seeking individuals, everyone enjoys the weekend – not just a select few.
Remember: if you’re not booked you can’t join in!
If you want to take part, go to the booking thread. If you’re interested but not sure about the nature of the event or whether you are eligible to attend, contact me or visit the Morning After forum to see what sort of antics we usually get up to and the feedback of the previous events.
This is the final update for Morning After 6 before the hilarity commences on the 20th!
With 30 players who have either paid or have confirmed attendance, we only have limited space left now. If you want to come please contact me asap to save a place – leave it too much longer and it’ll be too late!
Just to remind you, this is a chance to meet other Arnies regulars as well as quite a lot of the Arnies Moderating team – and then shoot them lots!
Date: August 21-22nd (Gates Open Friday 20th at 5pm – arriving on the Friday is best if you want to meet people before you shoot them!)
Cost: £50 (a range of payment options are available – see the payment link below for details.
If you’re interested or have any questions, feel free to pm me. Please remember that this is an Arnies event – but you are welcome to bring guests if you check with me first!
