Okay, so, this is my first thread about an actual meet-up or place, so if I miss anything important or put anything out of place, please do let me know.

[b]The event is located is at D.T.E. Swynnerton, Cold Meece, Staffordshire, ST15 0QN. Google map'd below:[/b]

Weird storyline:
[quote]The morning after the royal wedding celebrations the nation wakes to the news that the Crown Jewels have been stolen in the most daring raid of the century.
Believed to be the work of a foreign terror organisation the race is on to track down and secure the jewels before they leave the country.
The authorities are paralysed by red tape and indecision whilst the criminal networks of The North and The South each mobilise their troops to ensure the haul does not fall into the hands of the other.
TIME IS PRECIOUS
Control of the haul will give the Northern or Southern factions the leverage required to force the other into meeting their latest demands in the historic North V South struggle which has divided the country for so many years.
Every petty thief, street gang, and organised crime network in the UK is on the hunt to outsmart, outwit, and outfight the terrorist jewel thiefs, and their hated North or South competitors.
You will join as a LONE CRIMINAL, or as member of a CRIMINAL GANG, and fight for the North or South cause.[/quote]
[quote]THE HEIST is a game for control of territory which will lead to clues about the whereabouts of the jewels.
Timed objectives spread throughout the game zone will ensure the winning side will require mobility and strong command & control infrastucture.
This year Warped will be appointing not only North & South Generals, but also a range of associated positions to aid both sides in maintaining communications. If you, or your squad are interested in taking on a role(s) please let us know when you book your ticket(s) or when you register your squad.
Gameplay will be varied, and the battles will take place on a re-arranged game area. Even if you have played our last two games at Swynnerton you will be surprised by the variety in gameplay our new setup allows.
Short walks to huge firefights, sneeky insertion for mission completion, and intense CQB and Urban battles are all woven into the DNA of this fantastic game which caters for all player styles.[/quote]
[b] Tickets: [/b] £55, or £50 if bought online.
[b] Rental: [/b] £25 to rent all equipment needed for 3 days, including mask, gun etc.
[b] Food is supplied [/b]
[b] You are allowed to bring tents, caravans or whatever you want to camp. There are facilities available to sleep indoors if you wish, but it is at an extra charge.[/b]
There are also special tickets you can get for other things such as a small speedball arena.

Snip: The fuck am I talking about?
I would like to go, me and my mates were planning on going paintballing soon, so this could be perfect.
Liverpool here myself, I think I'm going to get a train down or something.
You southern twats and your fancy flying machines
does the fighting continue into the night?

I'm not sure actually, but that would be pretty awesome.

'tis a jolly good time to prance upon the wud and kill some Scots yes?!
[QUOTE=LewyJudge12;28056589]I'm not sure actually, but that would be pretty awesome.[/QUOTE]
wait so is it one constant battle over a huge terrain or just a large number of small regular matches that cause territory to change?
[QUOTE=spog;28056604]wait so is it one constant battle over a huge terrain or just a large number of small regular matches that cause territory to change?[/QUOTE]
It's said to be one big game, but it's unlimited lives, so if you get shot you can rejoin the battle instantly.
There will be smaller matches throughout the other days though.
That looks intense, never seen anything like this.
This looks pretty great, any age restrictions?
Damn! The only North vs. South thing we have over here is the civil war!
this sounds like mega fun. the previous facepunch paintball event was a huge success and everyone enjoyed themselves. £75 isn't such a bad price for 3 days though, but does that include paintballs or will we have to pay extra for that. not sure i could afford it anyway but i'd definitely be up for it if i found some cash somewhere.
Sounds like a fun idea.

Count me in I'll be there for sure! Would anyone like to share a tent with me, I have carrots and and 2 yoyo's to spare.
[editline]14th February 2011[/editline]
Also if someone has a Tonka play set please bring it. I will let you borrow one of my yoyo's.
[editline]14th February 2011[/editline]
Also if you want to be in my tent you have to wear a leather vest 24/7.
[editline]14th February 2011[/editline]
And you must refer to me as captain.
[editline]14th February 2011[/editline]
And you must laugh at my jokes even if they aren't funny.

Seems like a fair deal. I have the tonka power tools kit, this cool Captain?

Not that I know of, except the party for alcohol obviously.

£35 for 2000 paintballs apparently, which is good considering it's usually about £50-60 on any retail website.
Why did i read this as "North v South Korea Paintball" event?
[QUOTE=$$>MUFFIN<$$;28065112]Why did i read this as "North v South Korea Paintball" event?[/QUOTE]
Oh god that would be awesome.
[QUOTE=LewyJudge12;28069655]Oh god that would be awesome.[/QUOTE]
North Korea would probably pay some Chinese people to pay for them, just in case some of them try to do a runner.
Can we get an overhead view of the area you'll be playing on? Google map just showed Great Britain.
Had an event like this in my town, it lasted from 9am-4pm of pure fighting and reinforcements sent in every 10 mins, and there was series of missions and side missions during the whole operation, it was pretty fun, at the end all the people from each team lined up and took turns shooting, just like the old fighting style, worst part was, I was on the front line and was shot right on the mask

I'd fuck up all of you but I'm not in England.
In my personal view, I would want Scotland to win. :love:
North are going to bag it. We're superior :unsmith:
I'm from Derby/Nottingham, The Midlands. Would that be north or south?
