Airsoft uses recently closed theme park for special event

Cornwall is set to host a combat-style team event this spring where players engage in battles using plastic balls. Airsoft International has revealed that its AI-500 event will take place at Flambards Theme Park in Helston on April 11.






Cornwall is set to host a combat-style team event this spring where players engage in battles using plastic balls. Airsoft International has revealed that its AI-500 event will take place at Flambards Theme Park in Helston on April 11.

Airsoft skirmishing, the sport in question, involves participants eliminating opponents by striking each other with spherical non-metallic pellets fired from replica firearms known as airsoft guns. Unlike laser-based games or paintball, this game operates on an honour system, with players encouraged to exit the game once hit, given that the lightweight pellets do not leave a mark like a paintball.

The skirmish typically features two opposing teams (such as a red and yellow team) who are assigned a task to complete. This could range from a simple objective like capturing the opponents' flag to a more intricate mission such as locating and securing a downed pilot, then escorting him back to your base while warding off around fifty opposing team members, all within a 30-minute game time.
