Check this out - August 24th - 26th (starts Friday 1600 - Sunday) national weekender event at Ground Zero, Hampshire.

http://www.groundzeroweekender.co.uk/

Neill suggested it might be an ideal event for the 9th SS Hohenstaufen to attend! Anyone interested? I have a big tent I can bring. :D

Last year was aproximatly 6-700 and it worked they used their whole site and it takes about when I drove my landie round it it took about 20 mins to do the perimiter paths its a big site and it seemed to cope well.

YES ABSOLUTELY its a gas! if we go as a ww2 team we need to co-ordinate which side we're on.
Its always a good weekend! be prepared to be knackered!

Hmm, so all the admin is pretty tight with 600 players.

What are the FPS limits?

Its all pretty good.... GZ is not your typical airsoft site. Instead of lots of short games the games tend to roll out over a whole day so if you want be really involved you can or if you want to just take it a little bit easier you can do that too..... no official lunch break either.

Site limits are as far as i know 325 fps for AEG's and 500 fps for snipers, 450fps for aeg snipers with auto disabled...
the only downside is they only allow bfgs there have been too many fires with hot burning stuff..

Well if a few of us are going, it would make sense to register ourselves as a team if we want to be on the same side.

Checked with our local site and there will be about 30 of us comming over from Guernsey so we'll have to hook up at some point.

OK, there are three teams at this event, bravo, delta and the others. I usually play bravo but with this event we usually play 'the others' - might i suggest that all other members of the thirdreichs superior forces do the same...? booking early is essential
I think it would be great to have a team of dedicated ww2 airsofters...... perhaps we could have a subplot of timetravelling soldiers etc etc :)
