Bomb Patrol: Resurrection Hungarian Airsoft Event Quick AAR

Dom

It is the first time for me to learn about an airsoft international event held in Hungary, and it's a welcome thing for me to receive a report from the organizers however brief it is. Unfortunately I wasn't able to join the Bomb Patrol: Resurrection which was held on the same day as the Autumn Harvest 4 at Lenti. The airsoft event from the 12th to the 14th of September and I hope I'll be able to go on the next one.

Bomb Patrol: Resurrection was a LARP-style event that was held in Hungary and its theme was Afghanistan. As far as I know, this was the first event of this size in Hungary, with over 500 players participating and playing roles as Taliban, ISAF, Afghan Militia, and Civilians. This number is not that bad considering it was only promoted inside Hungary with word getting around the neighboring countries. Word goes fast out in landlocked countries in Europe, especially if it's an airsoft event with lots of role playing.

Money was printed out to be used during the game and nearly 16 million "Afghanis" changed hands during the game. The Talibs and the militia made alliance several times in order to beat the ISAF forces but despite that the ISAF forces made tons of money, found the gold and the hidden "Sacred Books" as well.

A lot of Hungarians live outside the Hungarian borders and in the neighboring countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Romania) and mostly they were the "international" players for this event but the organizers told me they had players from Romania, Germany and one guy from Russia as well.

On the first night the organizers presented a concert and the second day belly dancers entertained the crowd. Since this game went without hiccups and feedback was very positive the organizers, are planning to accept more players next year from other countries as well. Their website doesn't have an English language version yet, but this will change before the next event and we will report any further development especially that we're looking forward to attending this event next year, fingers crossed.

Theyy have a Facebook page where you can check out some nice photos but also here is a short drone footage so you can see how the terrain looks like.

All I know that next year's game has the same theme but I am not sure about the location. Keep up the good work and see you at the next Bomb Patrol.
