Our game zones Visit our maps
Navigate through diverse landscapes, from dense forests to urban scenarios, creating a dynamic and engaging experience in every game.
Village of the Damned
Use all of your stealth and agility to sneak through the Village un-detected by the enemy. Deliver the VIP, attack the church, eliminate all of the opposition or hold the guard towers to win!
With 4 towers, dozens of huts, a church, graveyard, Shrek's toilet and lot's of cover this game zone is also home to our Battle Grounds Adventure Activities favourite's "Crazy Graveyard" and "Church on Time" created especially for those stag and hen parties.
Trench Warfare
Bigger and better than ever dive into a network of 6ft deep trenches dodging enemy claymore's to stamp out the opposition.
"Dig for Victory because Battle Grounds needs you!"
Doomsday Mayan Temple
Step back a few thousand years to a time of Holy Temples and Gods of the Underworld.
In a game dominated by our NEW 3 story temple your team will need all of their wit and cunning to wipe out the enemy and clinch victory by storming the sacred grounds.
Castle Chaos
With two levels, two stair cases, four entrance points and plenty of places to hide our Castle Chaos game zone is guaranteed to require your team to work carefully together to launch and attack against your enemies to see who's worthy of holding the Castle for once and for all.
The Oilfield
Unique to Battle Grounds this is our most intimidating game scenario - dozens of oil drums and metal bunkers make this a high impact, high volume setting!
A rival mob of roughnecks are looking to take over the oil fields. Dominate key positions in King of the Hill, capture the flag or wipe out all of the opposition to claim victory and rights to the riches!
Well we are in Aberdeen afterall!
Behind Enemy Lines
Featuring a to-scale Chinook helicopter this game zone was NEW to Battle Grounds in 2012. Enemy troops have taken down a chopper with one of your comrades still inside. Sent deep into enemy territory, and with limited time before the enemy take him hostage, your team must make a daring rescue.
So what are you waiting for? "Get to Zeeee Choppaaaaa!"
Airsoft Walk on
Airsoft skirmish is a recreational activity and a sport that simulates military or law enforcement scenarios using replica firearms. Participants use airsoft guns, which are realistic-looking replicas that shoot bio pellets.
The primary focus of airsoft skirmish is to engage in mock battles, often in outdoor or indoor environments, with objectives and rules similar to military simulations or tactical games.

What is FPS?
FPS stands for "Feet Per Second," and in the context of airsoft and firearms, it refers to the speed at which projectiles, such as bullets or airsoft BBs, travel. The measurement is used to quantify the muzzle velocity or initial speed of a projectile as it exits the barrel of a gun or airsoft gun.
