Idaho Airsoft Teams Take Aim

31.12.69

Your daily life quickly falls away when you take the field. You stealthily navigate the scrub brush, trying to remain undetected, and begin to wonder if your team has what it takes to outsmart and outmaneuver the opposition. Then you contemplate the line between reality and simulation.

This isn't a role-playing video game, nor is it real battle--yet you can't help but feel an exhilaration that could only come from playing a game that dabbles in several primal realities.

Have you prepared enough? Are you positioned correctly?

The intense feeling of vulnerability is both nerve-racking and empowering. Your commanding officer pipes through your headset and you begin shooting, consistent with the directives of the moment.

Of all of Boise's quirky game-sport outings, Airsoft stands on its own. To check it out for ourselves, Boise Weekly paid a visit to a large, organized contingency of gamers playing on a muggy Saturday morning near the Boise River west of Star.
