Step 1TERRAIN

TERRAIN
what kind of battle are you planning to be in? well, there are these major types of terrains/areas:
-woodland
-desert
-field
-snow
-beach
-city

in the woodland, there many trees, fallen branches, and brush. this is one of the easiest  and hardest places to play in. reason it would be easy: there are a lot of trees for cover. reason it would be hard: there are a lot of trees for cover. trees make the woodland one of the most challenging areas to play, because it is almost impossible to land a hit on your target, and sniping is almost impossible, except for the specially gifted.

desert is by far the hardest place to play, because it's hot, its huge, and there's no cover. desert would only be good for close quarter battles, or extreme long distance sniping. the reason being is that in cqb, you're already exposed most of the time, and sniping from where the opponent cant see you would be very challenging

field is a cross between desert and woodland, being that there are trees for cover, and alot of open space. on of the easier areas it is ideal for any game

snow is impossible. it is a mixture of woodland and hell. the reason i say this is because snow will make you an easy target, unless you're wearing all white, and the snow will mess up your gun, and it risks the possibility of you slipping. this is only good if you are an enemy sniper, that would be the only way to land a hit.

i don't know of any airsofting fields on, or even near, the beach, but none the less, it is an ideal place for airsofting. the reason for me saaying this is that beaches have alot of open space, and , at least where i live, a lot of cover. the only down side, is the sand. and the water. it will mess up your gun.

last, but not least, is city. city is airsofting in any place that has buildings or vehicles for cover. it is by far the most fun to play in an airsofting arena and going shooting in the city. if you can find an airsofting city, drop everything and go there.

Oh come on... Do we really need another incomplete airsoft guide? I agree with bombmaker2 the instructables are being filled with pointless guides like this, with no substance, and no use. If the first step had includes some tactics for different terrain it would be useful. If the second step had included any changes in rules and tactics for different game types it would have been useful. Step three and four need to include some kind of tactics rather then saying "tactics are your surefire way to victory," and they could have been combined in to one step. The fifth step is just a list of "tools" with no description of how to use them. Airsoft grenade launchers as far as I know are nothing but giant shotguns. What do you mean by heavy weapons? How do you know what suits your situation best if you don't go into any details? Finally, "DONT BUY CHEAP STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" What is the price range of cheep stuff, under $10, $100, $1000, $10,000, well what is it?

Take some photos next time. If the Instructable is only stock photos, then I rate it 0.5.

Problems with this Instructable:

- you haven't used your own images
- it's essentially a collection of lists of easily available information (a list of the types of airsoft gun isn't a survival guide)
- you don't actually provide any advice. Read through your tactics section and see if it really tells the reader how to do something.
