Border War MILSIM XII - THE STORM LORD, organised by the Border War Crew, took place at the beginning of September as the only largescale International Airsoft Event hosted in Europe in 2020. The C-19 pandemic situation blocked the original April date and moved the event to September with the main point of focus on player safety, massive usage of game props and plenty of updates based upon player’s wishes from BW11. BW crew readiness and large investments enabled the event to proceed with the most stringent safety standards possible, making it a player-safety-oriented benchmark event with continuous 12 years of history. Border War MILSIM – THE STORM LORD set another benchmark in airsoft history in terms of anti-covid measures, with an on-the-spot and active approach towards making the event happen, rather than postponing it to next year.
Border War MILSIM 12th Episode – The Storm Lord was held in Czech Republic, in the former Military area of Ralsko and took place in first half of September, hosting players from 20 countries around the world. People came from all around Europe even in difficult times and participants undertook an intensive infantry MILSIM battle across massive scale terrain. The event focused on large scale infantry tactics in deep forest vegetation with additional usage of motorized heavy armour elements.
Border War 12 again upgraded the player services compared to previous events. Very smooth registration, all-participant temperature checks with latest possible technology, professional chrono, medical services on site and enforced player logistics assured Border War MILSIM the status of a worldleading event proving itself as a benchmark in many aspects of Airsoft MILSIM event organizing.
