A weathered matte-black airsoft rifle resting across a stack of battered metal ammo crates painted in chipped navy blue, each stenciled with bold white "OP BLUE CIRCLE" markings. The scene sits in the corner of an abandoned warehouse with cracked concrete floors, scattered shell casings, and torn mission maps spread beneath the weapon. Cool, diffused overcast light pours through broken high windows, carving sharp highlights along the rifle’s rails and optics while casting long, dramatic shadows. Captured in photographic realism from a low, three-quarter angle with a shallow depth of field that blurs distant pallets and netting, the mood is bold, tactical, and cinematic, evoking a high-stakes Tarkov-style milsim event staging area.

Game Rules

Essential safety and conduct standards for every Op Blue Circle battlesim event.

ALL RULES MUST BE FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN THE PLAYER BEING REMOVED FROM PLAY OR THE SITE. 

1. Eye protection is to be worn at all times in the playing area and is only to be removed when in the designated safe area or if advised by a marshal. 

2. It is advised that head protection be worn, but this is at your own discretion. 

3. Do not climb up or on trees or buildings.

4. Be aware that there are fallen trees and logs on the ground, and care should be taken around them. 

5. Some areas of the woods or buildings are slippery and uneven, and players should take adequate care when entering or playing in these areas. 

6. Be aware of branches or other obstructions at head height; this is another reason for wearing eye protection. 

7. Magazines should be removed from weapons and chambers cleared before leaving the playing area. 

8. Pyrotechnics are in regular use; DO NOT attempt to pick them up as they can become very hot and some types explode, which may cause burns or loss of fingers if being handled after ignition. 

9. Players under the influence of drugs or alcohol will be refused entry to the site. 

10. Cars are parked at the owner’s risk in the designated car park.

11. OVERKILL, avoid overkill at all times. It only takes one round to eliminate someone. 

12. Suitable footwear, in the form of ankle-supporting boots, must be worn; no trainers. 

13. Weapon muzzle velocities must be within NI legal limits; random checks will be carried out.

14. No targeting of Livestock or wildlife at any time. 

15. No targeting of members of the public outside of the Skirmish area or vehicles, including trains.

16. Noncombatants are not to enter the skirmish area. 

17. Anybody may be requested to leave the site at any time if their conduct is deemed to be unsuitable by the marshals. There will be no refund in the event of this happening. 

18. All players must sign a waiver before the start of the day’s events.

Rules, Safety and Integrity

Our ruleset keeps hardcore milsim fair, safe and enjoyable for everyone, protecting players, staff and site neighbours across Mid and East Antrim.

An interior of a dark, abandoned industrial stairwell serving as an airsoft extraction point, with cracked concrete steps, rusted railings, and peeling blue-gray paint. A glowing blue circular LED panel is mounted on the wall at the landing, labeled as the designated evac zone for a milsim event. Spent magazines, empty BB bottles, and laminated dog tags are scattered across the steps. A single high window leaks in cold, bluish evening light, while the panel casts an eerie neon glow, mixing to form dramatic, high-contrast highlights and deep shadows. Captured in photographic realism from a low-angle upward shot, the composition feels claustrophobic, bold, and high-stakes, reminiscent of a Tarkov-style last stand.
A close-up overhead view of a meticulously organized airsoft loadout laid on a dark, textured rubber mat, centered around a blue-circled battlesim event patch. Surrounding it are color-matched mid-cap magazines, a weathered plate carrier with blue accent webbing, labeled med pouches, a rugged field notebook filled with handwritten objectives, and a GPS unit displaying a segmented extraction route. Cool, directional studio lighting from one side creates crisp reflections on polymer surfaces and deep shadows in fabric folds. Shot in photographic realism with a top-down, flat-lay composition and sharp focus, the mood is bold, methodical, and mission-focused, perfectly suited to promoting hardcore Tarkov-style milsim events without showing any human presence.

Field Rules and Procedures

Check engagement distances, ammo limits, medic mechanics, night-game requirements and chrono procedures before deploying, so your loadout, attitude and expectations match our standards from first brief to final extract.

A detailed tactical operations table inside a dim command tent, dominated by a large, creased topographic map covered in color-coded markers, laminated objective cards, and a blue circular mission patch in the center. Around the map sit rugged radios, a scratched metal compass, labeled mag pouches, and printed rules for a Tarkov-style airsoft event. Harsh, directional light from a single hanging field lamp creates hard-edged shadows and strong contrasts, highlighting textures of canvas walls and frayed nylon gear. Shot from a slightly elevated, wide-angle photographic perspective with sharp focus throughout, the atmosphere feels intense, strategic, and immersive, capturing the planning phase of a bold, narrative-driven battlesim.
