Hello! New Wannabe From Exeter!

[Nick G]

Okay, full day it is.

So how many people typically turn up to this kind of thing?

I appreciate it varies by site, but for the sake of argument let's say Survival near Torrington.

And what, I just turn up and I get put into a team? Or is it like school football getting picked last!? ?

Haha yeah I imagine Nerfs are a bit too advanced for beginners, have you seen the size of those darts compared to BBs!? 

At the moment they are limiting to 30 players which makes for nice tactical play. In terms of teams, it's often one barn against the other but you can request to be on the same side if there is someone you know. Safe zone is sub devided at the moment to keep everyone spaced apart for covid.

Yeah but like I say call first to book and reserve rental gear. Then after signing in the organisers will assign you a colour.

Okay so, so Survival in Torrington has a spot this Sunday, so I'ma probs gonna go along to that just to see what the crack is, and go from there.

If I love it, which I'm sure I will, I'll go to the one on the 2nd May as well, which should give me time to heal a million BB exit wounds.

Let us know how you get on.

I was very happy yesterday with my full head protection. Helmet, goggles, face mask + earpro.

Took a few pings to the helmet so worth the extra bit of sweating.

And it kept the sun off.?

Unfortunately it just found a gap between my hat and eyepro...! One in a million shot! Haha
