Today at Northern Alliance.

The site is on the edge of Dishforth RAF Base and includes all the old WW2 Bomb Stores and Bunkers, some overgrown with trees. as well as open grassland and a fantastic CQB 'Labyrinth' consisting of three bomb stores surrounded by concrete walls and earth banking. Passages and doorways have been cut between the individual compounds. It's Hell in there!

72 pictures from todays Skirmish on their Facebook Page. There will be video highlights later.

In the CQB Bunker 'Labyrinth'

Looking like a pro there!

 

[CaptainSwoop]

I forgot them!. In the CQB my left hand got shot to pieces. I have 3 bleeding knuckles and 4 big welts. It's agony.

Fighting in there is so close you can just about touch each other.

 

[CaptainSwoop]

I was having Hop troubles as well. I had to keep the Mags pushed up and forwards to get them to feed.

 

[Dan88]

Nightmare.

Shot in the hands is far worse than in the face in my opinion.

I got shot 3 weeks ago from about 2 feet on the knuckle of my little finger with gloves on, I'm still struggling to bend it now, it's agony.

I know I have zero experience with airsoft but I think I really love the look of the outdoor, wooded places compared to the indoor places.

In bad weather you'll soon prefer CQB, I've skirmished in mud bordering on Battle of the Somme levels. It was fun, but hellishly difficult to move around in.

 

[AirsoftTed]

I prefer Woodland sites myself if I had to choose between the two. However I do much prefer the predominantly woodland sites which have villages and the like for a bit of FIBUA

 

[CaptainSwoop]

Anyone in North Yorkshire or the North East will like Northern Alliance. They have wooded areas, bunkers FIBUA and CQB all with the backdrop of an RAF Base.

Plus, they have the best toilets I have seen on any Airsoft site (a not inconsiderable consideration

that gun gets heavy and with such a narrow field of vision, a tree comes in handy to give my left arm a little rest

Like a boss!

 

[Richie Boyle]

the range of the gun isnt good enough but it will be upgraded from 270 to 330fps. in the meantime, i have found a role within a team as a spotter. that scope is amazing and far exceeds the guns limits but i can keep the team informed on whether there are enemy hiding in and around the 'town' then take a supporting role to keep their heads down while my guys move from cover to cover

You could remove the totally unnecessary bipod.

 

[CaptainSwoop]

Or the huge sights.

 

[Richie Boyle]

i cant remove the sight. i have found a role for myself as spotter for my team. it worked quite well on sunday since i was being asked if there was still a guy in a building and i was able to let them know that there was 2 guys in there and i could keep their heads down while my team moved

Sounds like you know what your doing and have a good strategy/tactic going on there!
