Would that be the old cement factory on the Shoreham to Stenning road....?

Forget the cement works, we've looked, the Asbestos and pikeys make it a no go.

I've thought before that the old Shoreham Cement works would make a fantastic venue for a Stalingrad game, it certainly looks bleak, white and creepy. As to whether anyone would be able to use it for an airsoft game I doubt very much. It must be a health and safety nightmare and uninsurable, but it would certainly be amazing if someone could wangle it. I found some pics

EAG have been running games in Worthing for over ten years now and are always on the look out for new sites in the area, there's none, honest we've looked at every angle. We can't even get into the tunnels under Devils Dyke.

How about the Drakelow tunnels for a spot of fighting in the sewers of Stalingrad?

Not quite the same as above-ground urban I know.

Cheers

Yes we had considered both Drakelow and UCAP tunnels for a Rattenkrieg scenario but both sites have already been used quite extensively and recently so it's probably too soon to re-visit either.

So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."

It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

MoD sites aren't available for small fry like us. They also come with their own problems, namely that you can be booted off by the real army at any time up to game day. It's happened to Josh a number of times.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, but we're already on it :good:

What a shame - this looked excellent and we've been polishing our ppshs - no doubt it would have rivalled CiA's original Arnhem game, which I still rate as one of the best we've been to.

Shame - I'd been hoping to get to this. I'll add my voice to the several who'd like to see something a wee bit further north.
