One of the main types of events run by Stirling Airsoft is the 'Combat mission'
These are typically one off scenarios which contain multiple objectives for both sides of the event to achieve.
While generally much smaller than the larger AOW events the Combat mission is usually the toughest and most realistic military simulation exercise Stirling offer. Operating in all weather conditions with all those attending on hard routine (totally self suffienct in areas with little to no comforts) these events rely on those attending to think on their feet, work well in teams and be able to keep going to get the objectives compleated no matter what they may come up against.
Setting up OP's, conducting CTR's or reacting to events as a QRF, combat missions offer the participants a constant challange. Combat missions normally require those involved to be able to navigate by map reading (this is taught upon request), be proficient in radio comms procedure (VP) as well as crossing trenchs, rivers, barb wire fences, climbing mountains and other such realistic aspects that you would need to overcome and adapt to if you were part of a real life small military unit.
Operating through the night means that during combat missions we will usually have a stag system setup, this is to ensure that people can all get some rest but the reality of the event continues - if there is an attack then everyone springs into action. Being willing to do your shift on stag, be willing to stand too at 5 AM just like the Bristish army still do as the sun rises as this is the most likely time the enemy will attack.
Most of our recent Combat Missions have been conducted in the Black Mountains on the border between England and Wales. Our Rural operational area spans more than 4 square miles, the entire valley pictured below.
Stirling Airsoft Combat Missions are designed to be as real as it gets. There is NO substitute!!
