Finally sorted the first date. July 12th & 13th in a brand new area within Salisbury Plain Training Area. Check out our website and FB Page for more details. Hope to see as many of you there as possible. -
Hopefully!! I'm sure that theirs something else just around the corner though!

Too true!! I'm going to try and deconflict as best as possible with other events. Might take a rain check on August, it's probably better for us anyway to be honest as it gives us more organisational time , plus my business partner should be settled in his new job by then and be on a settled rota back in this country. Completely understand about the MoD policy and thats a risk that everyone takes when using their training areas, but it's worth it when it all comes off. From what I've just had explained to me over the past couple of weeks they have had a rethink on how they treat civilian users now and whilst they can still be bumped, the opportunities are fewer, which can only be a good thing I suppose. Should have a few dates by Friday anyway so I'll do some research on other events and try and negotiate a date that doesn't clash with anything

We're based in the Midlands but our events will be held on MoD Training Areas all over the Country. We were hoping to be holding the first few events near us but for one reason or another we're now not able to do that.

Hi all, After months of planning and waiting around Green Zone Mil Sim are now within touching distance of being able to finally advertise for our debut event Op UNIFIED AGGRESSOR. We have asked for a date in August and should hopefully have a confirmed date by the end of the week. It will be conducted over the course of a weekend and we will be providing coaching on different elements involved with the scenario. The teams will break in the evening for a chill out and then continue the next day as the opposite team, giving players the chance to learn extra skills and play from both sides. All coaching will come from serving members and they will be subject matter experts in the fields being taught. All the staff have recent Operational experience and can ensure that the latest techniques are being coached to make the scenarios as real as possible. We will be pulling out all the stops for every event we host and ensuring that all the money made goes back into the game to make it as realistic as possible. We will also be giving a percentage of every entry to a charity called Scotty's Little Soldiers which is a charity that raises money for the kids of the countries fallen heroes. We will provide drinks and refreshments all through the day as well some hot food after the first game finishes. Please take a look at our website, follow us on Twitter and like our Facebook page to ensure that you keep up to date with all the latest news. We need as much support as we can to make sure our debut event is the success that we know it can be, and enable us to plan and run more in the future.

Great news we're back on! Should have a date for the debut event by the end of the week. It will be on a new area but will be much better suited to the scenario we're running. Keep an eye on our website www.greenzoneairsoft.co.uk for more details. You can also follow us on Twitter @GRNZone_Airsoft and FB: Green Zone Military Simulation LTD. We're finally happy again after months of hanging around we can start to get things moving again. Spread the word and hope to see as many people as possible there. -

Just an update as to where we're at right now! Things have been a little quiet at the moment due to a misunderstanding on our part with the MoD. As it stands from an events point of view we're all ready to go. The scenarios are all written, we've got the training team assembled who will deliver the coaching, with IED experts and Snipers to deliver Sniper training. All our extras and actors are all in place and the dems/battlefield effects have all been provisionally booked. All that we need to do now is confirm the availability of the areas. We're hopeful that we'll have a decision soon and then we can officially launch the event. So things are still moving slowly, but at least they're moving! We're committed to getting this event up and running as we've invested a lot of money and time into getting it to where we are at the moment and will not see it fail before it even gets off the ground! -

Hahahahaha! We'd love too, but unfortunately it's securing the real estate. We don't want to rush the first one, as this is what we'll be judged on so it's important it's good! -

Well update from yesterday's visit to the show! We had a very productive day and managed to talk to a lot of very friendly & helpful people. We've been very fortunate to have received full support and backing from AA & AI Magazine who are going to help us advertise and push the event and also come and cover it to write a review. After an extremely lengthy discussion with Ben from AI Mag, we've decided to move away slightly from our initial full on Mil Sim experience and conduct more of a Training weekend experience. We will recruit the help of serving subject matter experts to ensure the skills being taught are the latest and most up to date! We will break Saturday evening and lay on a few drinks and BBQ and give everyone the chance to chill out, discuss, and recover from the days scenarios before heading out to do it all again early Sunday morning. We're still going to throw everything we've got into the scenarios and they will be as realistic as possible. We should have all details ready to be published Mid March when our new website and social media sites go live, as well as linking them into both AA & AI news feed on their sites. So keep an eye out for further info and I'll get back to writing some scenarios -

We're planning on registering with as many official bodies as possible. Tomorrow will hopefully be really helpful for us. -

Latest update! After a meeting this afternoon with our accountant we've now officially registered the Company! Next week will see the final stages such as Bank, Public Liability Insurance, UKARA Registration and then we can start building and developing the scenario. Website design will begin this weekend! All being well we'll be in a position to push live our website, social media, and advertising for the first event sometime around March 10th! This will give us about 2 1/2 months to get all the moving parts in order Exciting times -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Thanks a lot for the advice Dutch. We'll certainly take a look at that. We need as many people as we can for the first event, but realise that this might be easier said than done as we'd be a new event and an untested entity! The scenarios are developing well and we're currently looking into prices for different options for the weekend. We want to keep the cost as low as a possible for the first one to attract more people but put everything raised back into the game to make it as exciting as possible! So far if our numbers work we're confident we can put on a pretty good event -

We will do for defo Baz! I've just PM'd you. Thanks for the offer of spreading the word too, advertising is going to be key for this. We've a lot riding on the success of the first event -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Well the company will be registered in a few hours and then it's all systems go. We've then got to open the bank account and take out the Insurance. The website and all the Social media sites are under construction and we're aiming for our first event end of May time! We're off to the Airsoft Show this weekend to discuss a few options with some companies. Thing's a re developing well now. We will hopefully start advertising properly in a couple of weeks when we launch the website etc, and are hoping to touch base with Airsoft International Mag this weekend to discuss placing an advert in the magazine for the next few issues. -

I don't think it would ever get intercepted as it would be re supplied forward by the exercise directing staff. That's good to know though. We could accept requests for all Ammo and Grenades, Pyro etc. why only reload in a safe zone?? It would be good to reload under fire in certain scenarios -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Another thing we're thinking of doing to add realism and I'm not sure if people would be interested in doing this, but would people be willing to pay a bit more for entry if they didn't have to buy any Pyro or Ammo etc? We'd resupply when requests came in as if it were real. That way people would have to watch their ammo levels until re supplied. Just an idea, what's everyone's thoughts? -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Without a good Comms plan then the whole Sim would fall apart before it even got started. We're currently looking into a few different options for radios. I'm not going to start trying to reprogram radios but we will certainly look at different options and I f I need to buy a radio licence then I'll do it. Red & Blue Forces will all be on different Fx with separate Battle Group, TAC, and Fires nets. We're looking at injecting as much realism into it as possible. What we'd quite like to do at EndEx is spend about 30mins with everyone in ine room and do a hot washup! What did people like, what didn't they, what would they do again, what would they change etc, this way we can keep building on every event we host. -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Haha! They're not that bad! I suppose it depends on how real you want to make the Sim! We'll take a look at some other options as well rather than Clansman for the Battle Group net. TBH I'd prefer not to use Mil Radios as they're a pain in the a** and I can't really be bothered with hassle of applying for radio licences. We defo need two separate Radio Nets though. A section and Battle Group net. We've been approached by an investor if we need anything so purchasing good equipment shouldn't be an issue! -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Yeah well that's our plan too. We would accept calls for fire over a " Tac Net" with dems already in situ. -

WAH64_Man replied to WAH64_Man's topic in New Players & Arrivals
Yeah that's the kind of thing we're looking at. Inter Fire Team/Section Comms to enable teams to communicate, but then each Section/ Platoon has a dedicated signaller to speak to Zero for any Contact Reports, Requests for Resupply, Casevac etc! The people who have their own radios, are they completely compatible with each other? So can one persons radio talk to another even if they're not the same? I've looked at Radio licences which aren't to expensive and I can get hold of the Mil Clansman stuff complete with all the ancillaries and elevating kits for a reasonable price. Things are looking really good at the moment and we're extremely close to going live! We've had great news back from the MoD so things are coming along well What radio is that Baz JJ?
