GeorgePlaysAirsoft Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 The ship is the former MV Horsa now Penelope A if you want to track it. A group called Sealink Historic Ferries is seeking to purchase it (not sure if they have yet) and restore it, with UCAP presumably using it meanwhile. http://ucap.co.uk/ucap-airsoft-venues/coming-soon-ucap-vanquish/?fbclid=IwAR2tqx32RjOb1LjZYQZ9h1y8DrYRftTBg_rm2X2xOqk6XOiZRTe5jltehrs
Uncle Pauly Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 Deserted town of Pripyat, Ukraine, near Chernobyl. As a side note, I have a mate who lives out there and has license to take people around the area (he's an ecologist), but it might not stretch to airsoft skirmishes ? One for my bucket list.

Personally I think a theme park would make an awesome location, especially a place like Alton Towers. A huge game day where each hour the objective changes and both teams have to make their way across the park as quickly as possible and secure different locations and hold them from the other team. Moving from rides, to the castle, areas in the garden etc, would be epic. Whilst I'm writing this too does anyone remember the Camelot theme park. Last time I drove past (some time ago) that was all abandoned and over grown, just imagine if an airsoft company bought the grounds...I mean its nice to dream Cam Man Did a day a few years ago at Pleasure Island, Cleethorpes

One for my bucket list. pripyat looks cool but I could probably do without coming away with a "healthy glow" lol, I'd go with a similar location without the rads, famagusta in Cyprus, ghost town in the zone between North & South, literally instantly abandoned mid tourist season in '74 when the Turks invaded.
Luke85 Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 Knew Pripyat would get a mention somewhere.

Luke85 Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 Portsmouth is a long way from Yorkshire, but this could be well worth the trip.

Unfortunately the Turkish police would take a dim view of realist looking replicas. I asked my wife, it's a non starter :-(. Next AFUK meet should be bullpup only ?

They are good and have been my favourite for a long time.

If we can find a site basically central for everyone from around the country I think it could be a go’er of an idea ! ? Me personally I’d love to put faces to names , and to see if the bulk of the regulars really are as bad a bunch of social f**kups as I think we are ! ??
Jaylordofwaargh Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Would be up for meeting. I would not confirm to uniform/loadouts, but softer here; also given the team/passion thread....? Theatre is key for dream locations right? My thoughts would be abandoned hospital, half built/complete housing estate-can\mid range heaven... more sites/ideas to follow
