Am looking for a local (Essex) site to try out my WW2 airsoft gear and and happened upon this one:

http://www.airsoft-billericay.co.uk/

Does anyone know it? If so, is it any good?

Am not a big fan of mixing WW2 with modern, etc equipped players (being out-magged is one issue!) but want to get out and play without too much travel. Unfortunately, the WW2 weekenders are generally too far away for me at the mo (though I see Gunman has a training weekend at Tuddenham in October).

Cheers for your thoughts.

Steve

Steve, what's the issue with distance? Is it because you don't have transport? If so, you could try to cadge a lift with someone coming from the same place.

I've certainly not heard anything bad about them - and news of bad sites tends to travel very, very quickly in this hobby!

Now we're a country we're run by a..........

Headshot: Thanks for the thought. :D Distance is in part a health issue at the mo - I've got transport but at the minute am reluctant to travel too far for too long - all being well ( :roll: ) 'normal service' will resume....

Kermit: Thanks.

Am particularly interested if anyone else has played there as WW2. Also, if anyone can recommend other sites in or near Essex (especially if WW2 is actually played) then that'd be very helpful as well.

Cheers.

Pete no doubt could have a whole game on his own and play both sides with the kit he has :lol: (note yes I'm jealous)

I skirmish there every month its a good site with a couple people turning up in american ww2 kit occasionally. They have just finished fortifying a big area with sandbags. when i get my ww2 101 airborne kit im going to skirmish there with it but i doubt that will be for a while.
free money plez :roll:
