New CQB site opening in Leicester

[Lambster]

People who know me will likely know that I have a bit of a thing for The Embassy in Leicester. It's local, it's great to play in and the marshals are great. Unfortunately, the site is closing as the developers are now beginning building work. Last game is 24th May.

Today, First and Only announced a new site in Leicester. The Towers Hospital. 1.2 Million square foot of CQB in an old hospital built in the late 1800s. It looks like it could be exactly what I was looking for and it's within walking distance of my house!

Colour me excited. Where have they made the announcement? Just intrigued as to how much of the building will be used. Plus, zombie games.....

 

[Lambster]

Zombie games would be awesome!

They made it on the First and Only Midlands facebook page

Sweet, I'm sad to see the embassy go (also my regular site) but this looks like an epic replacement

 

[Nutster]

Isn't that the old mental institute? (if that's the pc way of saying it)

 

[Lambster]

Yeah it is. Hope its a bit eerie too

 

[Happy]

Zombie nights will be amazing if that's the case

 

[Qlimax]

That'll be a quality site just a shame it's ran by F&O not a fan.

 

[joshcowin]

not too far from me night games would be scary :wacko:

 

[Potential Threat]

It's fully booked up now but I think I read felix has took the cap off the amount of booking. Shame I've made other plan cause I really want to try my new kit out. I'll be there before the end of the month though that's for sure

anyone else going this Sat?

 

[Lambster]

I'll be there sat.

Would have but my cars in the garage at the minute and I hate using public transport to get to skirmishes. Sitting on a bus in camo usually gets you dodgy looks haha

Why I'm sad the embassy closed - my mate lived round the corner so I could park at his and walk there.

 

[Lambster]

Where you coming from mate?

 

[Happy]

Loughborough, but I'm actually going to be responsible and get the car sorted this weekend

 

[akey]

lamb keep an eye out for 2 guys with DEA patches, that will be Greg and I

 

[Lambster]

I'll be the guy in SWAT style loadout with a TM 416

Sounds awesome, and the F&O Midlands guys aren't half as bad as Jamie's crew.

Shame it's so far away =[

Let us know how it stacks up against the embassy though guys. From what I've heard it sounds immense but nothing beats first hand accounts.
