Bored with 15 minute team-deathmatches or capture the flag airsoft games?
Had enough of “paintball games with airsoft guns”?
Want to work tactically with team-mates to complete objectives but never have the time or space available?
Sick of wearing a coloured armband?
Come and try a very different airsoft experience to the average skirmish at one of our “Green vs Tan” Filmsim Open Weekends!
The event specifics have not yet been finalised, and will be published here as soon as they are ready.
Any story, team specifics etc will usually be published within a couple of weeks before the event.
Two rival private military companies found themselves on a collision course. Vanguard Solutions (green) and Ironclad Global (Tan) both trying to obtain the most lucrative contracts and neither are willing to give the other the opportunity to succeed and on multiple occasions undermine each other’s operations.
Cause multiple international operations to fail! The Intelligence committee have back listed both companies as there was no solid proof of whom was the biggest fright to international security.
After intel was leaked about Ironclad Global (Tan), Vanguard were welcomed back into the Intelligence community. A month later Vanguard are issued intel of a downed F-16, satellite confirmation that the plane has crashed in the region of Eversley and been given the mission to remove out possible S.A.M Sites and regain any intel of who was behind it. However the Ironclad Global also got this information via a leak and are looking to settle some scores completing the mission be Vanguard, so they can prove themselves the better.
Locate and destroy the enemy S.A.M site to ensure safe airspace for extraction. You must do this by uploading a virus to the Computers attached to the S.A.M sites. This can only be done by Engineers
Locate and find the plane crash. Secure the plane’s black box and escort it to the extraction zone. When at the extraction zone pop smoke for friendly helicopters to locate your position for extraction.
Eliminate Strike team that Killed the pilot and take their colours.
Expect a Large enemy counter attack, during the extraction.
Mcoms are to be used only by Engineers, do not move the m-coms – DON’T SHOOT OUR MCOMS
HVT ARMBANDS will be physically represented by Coloured Armbands.
Each HVT will be supplied a Arm
If you are calling for your team medic and bleeding out an enemy player can come up to you and count to ten, once they have counted to ten you must give them your Armband
Armband must be visible
If you find an enemy with multiple Armbands you can only take one (Get some Friends to rob them also)
These are items for the secondary objectives.
Black box can only be moved by the Attacking team.
IF KIA while carrying the box you must leave it where you fell.
Regen bag works as a hard regen
Make sure you let your team know where you have put it
If the flag is out the bag it is live
If the flag is in the bag it is dead, take it back to your hard regen then you can redeploy it
Don’t regen off your bag if rounds are coming in, it is destroyed, take it back to your hard regen you then can redeploy it
To destroy an enemy’s regen bag, put the flag into the bag and leave it where it is.
Green vs Tan is taking us back to old school Filmsim where teams are depicted by their fatigues, GREEN being one team and TAN being the other.
We’ve also gone back to some pre-lock down games and given them a modern more Filmsim vibe.
Nobody likes having to wear armbands, identifying friend or foe by their uniform provides much more immersion, especially in a story-driven scenario like you’ll find in our Green vs Tan Filmsim open weekends.
The rules are based on our standard Filmsim Ruleset, although specific scenarios may use additional or modified versions – these will always be covered in the start of day brief.
But what if I wear a ghillie suit? What if I wear black?
Black/civilian; is used to bolster the team lacking numbers or used as a third team. Please keep an eye out on our game rules for the teams.
Ghillie suits will be put on the colour vibrant they have, for example this would be a green team ghillie as it is the prime colour.
It’s worth mentioning that if you want to play on the same team as your friends, you will all need to wear similar colours.
Our Filmsim games are not about “shoot loads of ammo mindlessly at the other team”; that’s a skirmish game, and you can find that at just about any other airsoft site.
If you just want to run around, spraying ammo all over the place, in short scenarios without thinking too much, then Filmsim is not for you. Have a look at one of our Skirmish Weekends instead.
Our FilmSim Open Weekends are designed to offer a more involved, realistic, and fun experience than a basic skirmish offers without being too complicated for new players. The rules are a little more involved than normal skirmish games, and specific rules or mechanics may be added according to the scenario being played. We recommend familiarising yourself with the general Filmsim rules in advance, and listening carefully at the morning’s briefing.
Filmsim open days present a more accessible and casual experience compared to the more full-on weekend themed events and MilSims run by our sister company Filmsim.
If you enjoy our Filmsim Open Days but want more, then we recommend you try one of the full weekend themed events found at https://filmsim.co.uk/events/. Like our Tan vs Green open weekends, team recognition is based on your uniform (so no armbands), but games last all day (you eat, and sometimes sleep in the field), and rules of engagement apply (especially to Government forces).
The weekend will usually have some kind of story/narrative behind it, and we encourage players to get involved with this, preferably with some role-playing (or dressing up) where they can. The story may develop throughout the day or weekend, depending on the course of events during gameplay. Sometimes we run multi-weekend narratives, with the outcome of one weekend affecting the dynamics and story of the next. For example, if a weekend ended with a Special Forces team missing their extraction window, the next weekend may continue the story with them being persued by an angry enemy as they try to reach a secondary extraction or a safe house.
The story will usually be published on our Facebook Page a couple of weeks before the event. We love it when players come dressed up, and are willing to get involved with role-playing rebel freedom fighters, crazy drug dealers, or whatever other weird faction has been written into the game. There is no obligation to do this, but we can guarantee it’s great fun!
Game sessions are longer (usually two hours, breaking for lunch, then another two hours) with multiple objectives to complete, sometimes involving more complex mechanics (e.g. you need a specific person to accompany an item to its destination, or an objective may require several conditions before being complete). The extra time also permits co-ordinated pincer attacks, ambushes, stealthy flanking manouevres etc, that are just not practical in short, simple skirmish games.
Unlike on our full Filmsim or MilSim events where your uniform and weapon type is usually specific to the faction/team you are on, there are usually no restrictions on what you can wear or what type of weapons you can carry at our Open Filmsim weekends.
Green vs Tan weekends are the exception to this, we assign players to a team according to what they are wearing to avoid using armbands. See “What’s Green vs Tan?” above for details.
Most players will be limited to semi-auto only to encourage more tactical play, as well as making that heavy, expensive LMG you encounter a lot more fearsome when it starts spraying!
We also limit the number of weapons, and the quantity of ammo players can carry in the field. Magazines can only be refilled at respawn points (e.g. HQ or mobile field pack). There are few things more annoying in a game than trying to take an objective when there’s someone dug in real good with four guns and infinite ammo…
Very much like some of our favourite FPS multiplayer computer games, players choose their loadout based on class limitations. You can change your loadout/class at any point during the game by visiting a respawn point and swapping out as required.
For the full filmsim rules please follow the link – Filmsim Ruleset. These are the base rules, specific games may vary this ruleset as needed, so it is important that you pay attention at every briefing (even if you think you’ve heard it a thousand times before), as any changes for that particular scenario will be covered in the main briefing.
We want everyone to have the best experience possible at every one of our events, regardless of whether it’s your first airsoft experience, or you’ve been playing for years, whether you come on your own, or with a bunch of mates.
We have an excellent reputation for welcoming new players, helping them to learn the rules, and ensuring that they are included in the games in a fair manner, pairing them with more experienced players where necessary. There’s nothing worse than putting all the regulars on one team, and all the new players and visitors on the other. We don’t do that. We ensure that the teams are as balanced as possible, and are not afraid to mix them up during the day if it’s obvious that one team is just dominating.
We enjoy competitive play, but not to the point where half the players go home miserable because they never stood a chance.
With no paint marks or electronic hit registration, airsoft is a game based entirely on honour. Every player in the game has a resposibility to play fairly, and honestly, to ensure that every other player has a great day.
We’ve learnt from our negative experiences at other sites and from paintball games, that if you force a player to sit out while everyone finishes playing (especially if they’ve been shot very early on) it just encourages people to cheat. You pay us to play airsoft, not spectate, so we make sure that the only time you sit out watching is if you’ve overdone it and need a break to recover.
We also have a great team of volunteer marshals, who help us out because they love giving people a great experience. We have hi-vis marshals overseeing the games, and we also have marshals embedded within the teams, to help feedback any potential issues or bad feeling before it becomes an issue.
It’s a very frequent occurrence in airsoft to be completely convinced that you’re hitting someone, and they’re ignoring it. Almost all the time you’re actually missing. Repeat issues with a particular player should be reported to a marshal, who can monitor them.
We have a very low tolerance for “cheat callers” who, instead of speaking to a marshal, decide to start shouting at the other player, and telling their team-mates that the other team is cheating, and very soon half the players are grumpy, and start cheating becasue they think that’s what the other team is doing.
Almost every time, the pellets are dropping 10ft short of the target, but look like they’re hitting.
Occasionally, some people can get very angry, and upset at some perceived injustice in the game. We usually remove these players temporarily, remind them that it’s a game, and once they’ve calmed down, let them back out again. We do not tolerate abusive/threatening behaviour or violence, whatever the reason – offenders will usually be asked to leave site.
There is a huge range of airsoft sites and game styles to choose from out there – overly aggressive and competitive players, along with those who enjoy causing more pain than is necessary are advised to visit a different site instead.
All of our sites have a limited range of ammo, gas, pyro, and various accessories available for purchase.
Our Eversley Camp Alpha site is also fortunate enough to have catering on-site.
We try to provide a solid two hours minimum game time, both morning and afternoon, it is recommended that you take plenty of water and some rations/snacks out with you to keep you going while you’re in the game zone.
Cash & card payments are accepted on all of our sites. We rely on mobile internet connections to process card payments, Camp Alpha can be particularly troublesome for coverage on all networks, so we recommend having cash available, just in case.
In line with accepted industry business practice, tickets purchased for a specific event are not refundable unless the event is cancelled.
Details can be found in our Terms and Conditions of Ticket Sales which you agree to when purchasing a ticket from us.
Please also consider the Terms & Conditions of Entry to Events.
We operate outdoors all year round, and do not cancel games due to inclement weather (unless it is impossible to get to site or deemed too dangerous).
No-shows will not receive a refund unless exceptional circumstances apply.
If you find that you are no longer able to attend an event, or have booked the wrong date or venue, please get in touch with us as soon as possible (preferably by phone if the event is a couple of days away).
We are always happy to transfer tickets to a different date or venue if we are given sufficient notice, to avoid you losing out. We may offer website credit if that is more suitable.
The games are played in woodland and semi-derelict buildings and require physical and mental exertion. If you have any medical conditions which may affect your safety during the day, please approach the manager in confidence before the game starts so they are aware and able to offer suitable help should the need arise.
Please try and pre-prepare as much of your kit as possible so we can give you the maximum amount of trigger time.
You are welcome to camp over the evening before the game. Not only is there a great social atmosphere in the evenings, but you’ll have plenty of time to sort your equipment out.
In the mornings, the following times apply:
Every player has a responsibility to ensure that they arrive on site in good time, to get signed in and kitted up; we want to be able to head straight out into the field after the briefings.
We expect players to be pretty much ready by the start of the 09:15am briefings. It is especially important for rental customers to arrive early as we will need to familiarise them with the weapon they are using.
We only have limited quantities of rental guns for each site, so players requiring rental equipment MUST book in advance to secure the equipment.
We supply a gun with a high-capacity magazine, eye & face protection, and 1000 rounds of free ammo. Additional ammo is available to purchase at £10 for 3000 rounds. We also offer the option to upgrade your free bag to a 3000 round one on arrival for only £5. It is difficult for us to predict how many rounds you will get through in a game, as it depends on how trigger happy you are!
The provided eye & face protection is usually supplied in the form of a steel mesh mask (like a fencing mask) as they are not prone to steaming up. Wearing glasses underneath will likely lead to steaming up, we recommend contact lenses if you have them.
We do not provide any clothing, please ensure you dress for the expected weather, and consider a change of clothes for the drive home in case you decide to crawl through a muddy area! Sturdy boots which provide ankle support are strongly advised, as are long-sleeves, full-length trousers and gloves. A hoodie will help provide additional protection for your neck and ears.
Save money by booking discounted tickets below. Discounted tickets are available to pre-book right up until midnight, the night before the event.
Non-booked players arriving on the day with their own equipment will always be accomodated but entry will be charged at full price (usually £30).
Rental kit MUST be booked in advance, as we only have limited quantities available.
Please note that we chrono using the weight of BB you are set up for in order to accurately gauge the energy that your gun will be producing in the field.
Sniper and DMR weapons are permitted to operate at higher energies but are not allowed to be fired if your target is within 30M. You must also have a standard power (1.13J max) back-up weapon on you to fall back to if your enemies get within 30M (e.g. pistol, SMG, or short shotgun etc).
Any guns in the “standard” category are only permitted to use ammo weights up to 0.32g due to the potential for excessive pain and potential injury at close ranges.
We take great care to ensure the accuracy and reliability of our site chronographs, if your muzzle energy exceeds the limits in the chart below when measured, you will not be permitted to use it. We recommend when tuning your guns that you set them to around 10-20fps below the limits.
Special offer! Weekend walk-on tickets only £40. That makes the second day cheaper than half-price!
