  • Fight the Night

    It’s not often night fighting crops up during skirmish days (all in the name), but occasionally you might get the opportunity to play out in the dark. It sounds fun, and usually is, but what do you need to change about your kit and your playstyle to adapt? In this article, I’ll share a few…

  • Stepping it Up – England vs Scotland 2021

    “Without a doubt the best England performance in the history of this event” “The best Scottish and English Performance over the 14 years Land Warrior and Stirling have run this game” “I have never seen such relentless determination from an England team” Some high praise indeed from the organisers as England vs Scotland returned to…

  • Secrets Revealed!

    The more I watch the global sniper community on social media, the more I see people willing to show sometimes a little too much. Between ourselves, when it comes to tech or ghillie work, sharing these ideas is a great thing. Ideas can get passed around and developed, analysed, criticised (see Mission : Critical), before…

  • The Camping Guide – Keeping Warm

    One of the things that puts people off camping the most is that it’s generally viewed as cold, wet and uncomfortable. In the tents section, I’ve covered the shelter side of things which removes the wet factor. A good sleeping bag (seperate section here) is your best weapon against the cold but what else can…

  • The Camping Guide – Sleeping bags

    Everyone needs sleep. The sleeping bag is a vital piece of kit because not only does it give you something to sleep comfortably in, but it will also keep you warm and alive overnight. There’s quite a bit of choice and a few different details to consider, so I’ll begin with the oh-so-important temperature ratings…

  • The Camping Guide – Tents and Shelter

    Shelter. Sleeping quarters. Workshop. The tent is your base camp for the weekend, is likely to be the most expensive piece of kit and you need to choose carefully. It needs to keep you protected from the elements and give you the space you need to sleep, store kit and get yourself organised. Survival rule…

  • The Camping Guide

    What kit do you need for an overnight camp? And how does it change when you need to bring all your airsoft kit along too? The guide to the best bits of kit to pack for a weekend away. For most players, skirmish days are our introduction to the sport. It’s where we go to…

  • The Ghillie Guide

    The Ghillie Guide

    The complete ghillie building guide. I’ve been working on a few little camouflage articles lately, but decided that instead of having lots of seperate articles to flick through, I’d just put them all in one place, and have one resource to help you build a suit from scratch, or help develop your current one. Rather…

  • Why #vsrforever

    What is the best airsoft sniper rifle? The eternal question. I’m going to put the case forward for the VSR platform. Anyone who knows me from social media will recognise the hashtag above. It’s not just a love of the rifle though, I do have reasons for recommending it and I thought I might as…

  • Are snipers just lazy campers?

    Camping, laying around in bushes. Are snipers lazy players? I was following a post in a general airsoft group on Facebook and there’s clearly a very different perception of the sniper role from those who do it, and the wider community. But I don’t think it’s fair to label us snipers as lazy, or campers.…
