Well TA3 will be held alot sooner then we all thought biggrin.gif

QUOTE (wormbyte @ Jul 26 2006, 22:40 PM on ASCUK)
Well the next TA event is in preperation.  I don't want to say too much at this stage but here are some snippets of information.

TA3 will be played out in a woodlands environment, in North Wales, amongst 2000 acres of forestry plantations.

It is likely to have a two staged start allowing some players to experience 40 hours of game play, whilst the remaining players can expect a full 24 hours of game play.

It will be, generally speaking, a more slower style game but with explosive and intense engagaments at times (in the tradition of TA style games), and yes the whistling maroons will make their return!!!

Seeing that the event will take place in North Wales, we might want to bring it forward to late September due to the drop in temperature around October time.

The scenario will put the rebels on the offensive this time.

A complete management team will be used in this as well as all future TA events to provide a higher level of event organisation.

Much thought will be given to the event to make sure the game is finely balanced and that both sides can enjoy an equally enjoyable experience from the event.

It is with great regret that Dave Thompson (slim_shady) has decided to step down from the role as my "TA Event Partner".  It has been a pleasure working with him and I wish him all the best for the future and I certainly hope I will see him at airsoft skirmishes as well as future TA events.

So because of Dave's departure, TA 3 will also see the introduction of my new event partner, Rob Varga.  Rob has many years of airsoft experience behind him but even more years of management experience.  Therefore Rob will assist me with the organising and running of future events while I concentrate on the gaming experience within the events.  What this means to you is that future TA events will not only be a unique experience, but operationally they will also be run in a very slick manner.

The website will be launched within the next couple of weeks and the booking pages shortly after that.  Tickets are expected to be about £60 for the 24 hour players and £70 for the 40 hour players.

Town Assault 3 - The Hornets Nest.

And so it begins......

Then again, I'm probally missing something about this game, and how awsome it will be.

Anyone established where this is yet? I know IED and Dragon Valley are in the same locale and claim such sizes (and as already mentioned, they are a lot cheaper but then the games are usually a lot smaller scale).

USP Compact is nearly working. Just a little more TLC to get her cycling properly :)

USP .45 arrived. It's gorgeous!! :D 3 days to get here from UNCompany! Again they never failed me. And now it's time to buy green gas because 134a won't let it cycle properly :D And the silencer is sweet too! :D

The age limit for TA2 was 18 - But as this is being played at an actual site, then perhaps they will be more lenient smile.gif

Marlowe - As of yet, the site that has been choosen is Alpha Omega in North Wales - There website is down at the moment, however there forum on Ascuk does not say anything about TA3 - so who knows sad.gif

Oh and I hope to kick your arse this time tongue.gif

A bit about the site smile.gif
QUOTE (Airsoftmap)
Alpha Omega Airsoft

A non-commercial privately run site in the Clocaenog Forest, 15 minutes drive South of Denbigh, North Wales. A milsim based site run by ex-soldiers it encompasses nearly 2000 acres of dense woodland, tracks, roads, lakes & scrub. Reasonable fitness levels are recommended for some of the larger type scenarios we play.

No on site facilities, no hot food provided, no toilets, no hire equipment or weapons. Bring everything you need to fight & function. Full day and weekend skirmishes with missions through the night. Defences & positions being added all the time.

It is run by ex-soldiers, so the tactics used are that of the British Army.


Here a few picture of the site - Though they dont really show that much sad.gif - I don't think we will have the snow though tongue.gif

Look Here You will have to be a member of Ascuk to view these though I am afraid.

Well I have just had a further read on the official forums (link near the top of the page)

It looks as though the number of places available are alot smaller then last year which is a disapointment sad.gif

At TA2 we had close to 500 attendents.
As of yet the number stands at around 200 for TA3 - despite haveing such a massive playing field.

I will keep you updated though smile.gif

Booking systems should be up shortly - perhaps in the coming weeks.

As of yet, as said above, the age limit has not been officially decided. However, I would imagine that they would let 16 and above this time.

If you live in America and have no intention of coming to this, please stfu about how much it costs.

It sounds me to like they're having a stab at a mini Berget, with the all-immersive outdoor playing etc.

So you can have OP's, bashas, listening posts, ambushes...
"Well I've had a word with Joe, and he says instead of making a cable and sending a signal for my TAT B's, I can do a jump into a DZ from 600-metres with an Epson printer-scanner on my back, and then tab 10 miles over undulating terrain, at night, to unlock an officer's user account after he got the password wrong three times."
