The last airsoft game I ran, which incorporated a few role-playing elements, drew a bit of interest from the gaming community, so belatedly I publicise Ops here.
This is an airsoft event based on the Irish gaming con model. There'll be five games as it runs from Friday evening (err, yeah, this Friday) to Sunday evening. The nature of the beast is that you'll need your own kit, although begging, borrowing and stealing have worked in the past. Bare minimum we're talking about is boots, goggles (these can be rented on-site though), and an airsoft gun with some non-winding magazines, which if you're feeling flush can be purchased to own forever at the event. Drop me a line if you're interested! (or reply here of course) Here's the game blurbs. There's some other stuff happening too, and information is available on the website at: http://ops-game.info/ Shane Sparks to Tinder Ogen's Hole was like any other Badlands settlement: a small insular community centered around a water source, populated by hardy civilians with no interest in inter-league politics. When Northern Guard forces showed up in the surrounds the villagers initially sent a message reminding them of the settlement's independence; when the Southern MILICIA sent a response force the villagers went to ground. Despite the official public line on their “regular patrols and goodwill enhancement” both parties were mostly there because of the other and were taking full advantage to recon the area for future military purposes. Of course, with so many troops in such close proximity the outcome was predictable. Dying of the Light The jungles, forests and plateau's of central America are home to terrors of all kinds. Some are natural. Some are of our own making. Who do you trust in the dark? (a game of suspense, pacing, thinking and nerve. Requires the use of radios so BRING THEM!) Aftermath: Once Upon a Time in Hellsgate The Last War has blown itself out; survivors of the apocalypse scavenge the carcass of the old world to live. This poisoned town once had another name, but commanding the entranceway to a major city's irradiated husk it's become known as Hellsgate. It's a lethally volatile place, where the rogue town militia and the criminal Sweetwater gang vie for control of the zone, the resources and the trade. Their uneasy truce won't survive being shaken up, and the arrival of an opportunistic mercenary unit might be the match that's needed to burn Hellsgate to the ground. The Sweetwaters are over there, the Militia there, and us right smack in the middle? That crazy bartender was right: there's money to be made in a town like this. Last Night When night begins to fall on the sleepy town of Woodinvale, the shadows and fog rolling in bring with them more than just a chill shiver. A living nightmare erupts as the once-peaceful community is overrun with the restless dead ... scratching and clawing their way to the surface with an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Now only a handful of unlikely Heroes are left, banding together to fight for their very lives. On a night that never ends, the only thing worse than death ... is becoming infected. No One Gets Left Behind Gregor Abbasov's terrorist organisation has been neutralised. All that remains is to eliminate the man himself. He has fled to his home village of Garamammadi in the lawless Caucasian state of Mazajan. Taskforce "Celestial" has been sent to kill or capture him. The clan Militia in Garamammadi will defend their own to the death though, and the need for plausible deniability means "Celestial" can't leave evidence of their origins. In this part of the world people don't have to carry a gun to be hostile... -- I found out, long ago It's a long way down the holiday road ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
