Airsoft Equipment
Airsoft weapons are also different as they are replica models based on the 'real steel' weapons used by the worlds forces. As these weapons are "Realistic Imitation Firearms" (RIFs) they are subject to certain rules (Defined in the VCRA). The weapons are also governed by power limits measured in Feet Per Second (FPS), depending on the type of weapon and its means of power (Spring, Battery or Gas). Many regular players will have bought their own weapons after their first few skirmishes and as such you will see a varying array of different types of weapons on the game field.
These can be split into three main categories, Assault, Support and Sniping. Each of the three categories have their own strengths and weaknesses within the game field and as such may be able to alter the outcome of a game at any point.
