Looks a bit like your average airsoft field 
Looks like we should have staged it in a welsh valley
Ah yes but, if you went to Monte Cassino today you would see the same type of thing, green rolling hills etc. But look at the war time pictures of Cassino and it looks like a Barren cratered moonscape with hardly a single tree still standing! The quarry is spot on for it IMO!
Γ’β¬ΕI wanted to come to the Volga at a specific location at a specific city. By chance it carries the name of Stalin himself. So donΓ’β¬β’t think I marched there for this reason Γ’β¬β it could carry another name Γ’β¬β but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take Γ’β¬β and you know Γ’β¬β we are very modest, we have it already."

We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

Oh yes.
The Hollywood version will always trump the real thing IMHO 
These are all original photos from the Gothic line 1944. you can see that it is very rocky in places and once the green grass and trees have been chewed up and spat out by constant bombing and artillery, that the underlying ground is dusty, rocky and chalky. Very similar to our venue! There are actually a few bits of the gaming area which are green and have foliage on them. It is certainly as close as you are ever likely to get with a UK airsoft site!

Very nice, I can see I've got to get one of those polka dot scarves.

Defo on the polka dot scarf if you know somewhere cheap post it up everytime I look for one they are 325 
I have enough Ascot scarves to supply the British Side. Hurrah!

This should do the trick, cotton not silk but the right colour and dot size. you could make 2 or 3 out of the one scarf!
