Hudson Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Hi, I'm from a little down the road, in Teesside. Do you have an idea of where you're wanting to play yet? You've got a decent number of sites to choose from up here. NSC just outside Newcastle No Limits in Gateshead Beacon 155 outside Sunderland NTAC in the same area Dirty Dog at Shildon District 23 at Billingham Adrenalin near Richmond Plus a few others a little further out. Shop wise, you have BZ tactical near Stockton: theyre pretty much the only real store in the Northeast, though you also have Just Paintball in Darlington if you're just after the essentials. I believe No Limits also have a small on-site store, though I've never been so can't confirm what it's like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like outdoor/ woodland go to nsc if you like indoor/ cqb then no limits (never been there myself) If I was you I’d go to both and see what you like (taking into account factors like: car park size, safe zone, facilities etc etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to NSC once; it was okay but nothing that grabbed me. Will head back sometime and see what it's like to compare then & now. I've never been to No Limits, as I'm just not a big fan of pure CQB & it's a bit of a trek to go for that. Regular sites I go to (or did before 2020 happened) are F&O Stealth woods; a bit further south, out of the area so I didn't include it, Dirty Dog, Beacon 155, Humber Airsoft, and HQ Airsoft. the last 2 are also a bit further afield; about 2 hours drive away from me. My experiences of the local sites are: Dirty Dog - a good mix of outdoor and CQB, but lacks large woods and often gets a bit too busy for my tastes. Beacon 155 - okay, but suffers from attracting numbers sometimes and currently not running due to this situation. NTAC - I've only recently been for a wednesday evening game there. Not too bad, better than I remember it being; though it was under different owners last I went. District 23 - Alright, but as mentioned, I'm not a CQB-fan, I can't do more than a couple of hours there personally, and quite on the small side. NSC - Seemed like a good site, but when I went, the games seemed very restricted and locked you into only playing in small areas at a time with little room to flank or move. Adrenalin - Suffered from similar complaints to NSC, though they've recently started running full-site mini-milsim games which I've yet to try out; I'm booked in for one at the start of September, so fingers crossed it's good! There's also sites run by Battlezone Paintball/BZ tactical; one at Scotch Corner and one at Yarm. (I believe they only run the Yarm one now as SC struggled to get players). That's okay, but obviously very paintbally and again, you're locked into only playing on smallish arenas at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy8746 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I've been playing at No Limits airsoft now for around three months and its a great little site . Great staff and loads on hand to give you advice on what suits the site . Its fast paced and the games can be over quite quickly but it runs from 13:00 till 18:00 on Sundays . Get a face mask and some kind of head wear if you do fancy it. No Limits is easy to find and not far from team valley for buses on hand things like that.
