In this game, there are a couple of teams that compete one another in trying to take the flag of the opponent team to their own base. 


The flags are placed openly, and are not hidden. The flag should be carried in a visible manner. There are a couple of variants associated with the game, including Dead Flag and Live Flag. In Dead Flag, if the flag carries is shot or eliminated, the flag must be taken by him back to the opponents’ base.

2. Zombie

One of the new, but a rousing airsoft game. Zombie is becoming pretty popular among the airsofters. There are no specific number of members needed to play the game. There is a large group of humans, and a small group of zombies. Make sure to have 8 humans and 2 zombies, if you are a group of 10. 


However, you can alter the numbers if you want. The zombies in the game would be infecting the humans without being shot more than thrice. So, he has three chances to survive. On the other hand, humans need to survive from zombies, but they become a zombie if he is attacked by a zombie. 


So, a human would be lessened while a zombie would be added. The humans can get equipped with everything to prevent being infected by the zombies. They capture a win if they manage to shoot or eliminate all the zombies. On the other hand, zombies win if they manage to make all the humans zombies. 


There is no specific weapon to play the game, either rifles or pistols. Pistols would make the game a little more interesting and challenging. You can also enhance the number of zombies if you want to make the game more competitive.



3. Team Deathmatch (TDM)

4. Rescue the Hostage

Hostage Rescue is one of the airsoft games involving a magnificent scenario. There is a team of hostages, and a team of guards. Most importantly, there is a team of rescuers. The hostages would be placed on diverse locations on the airsoft field. The guards would be surrounding the hostages, making sure to not allow the rescuers to release them. 


On the other hand, the rescuers would be trying their level best rescue the hostages without getting shot by the guards. 


The rescuers don’t win the game if they just release the hostages. Instead, they need to take them to a safe place, which is often determined before the start of the game. They win if they manage to do so. On the other hand, if the guards shoot the rescuers to eliminate them before they rescue the hostages, they win. 


Both the teams are equipped with the airsoft rifles. However, the rescue team needs to carry additional pistols that the hostages would use after they are rescued. The hostages would then shoot the guards in order to pick up a win for the rescue team.



5. Medic

Medic is perhaps the most frequently played airsoft game all around the world. It is a large scale game with the major aim of team domination or death match. However, there is a medic in this game that would remain unarmed. Or, he may have a pistol with no additional ammos allowed to be carried or received from his partners. 


In case a player is shot, they need to lay down on the ground and remain down. But, they can use their guns for defending themselves. The medic needs to be notified so that he can run down to the player who is down in order to heal him. 


Once he is healed, he can get back to the game. Both the teams would be trying to kill the medic of the opponent’s team. The medic can’t get back to the game if he is hit. The team can continue playing even if the medic is eliminated, but the facility of healing and getting back to the game is terminated. 


To win the game, all the players of one team should be eliminated. This is one of the long lasting games, and the players who are playing this game often carry maximum BBs.



6. President

The out of the box thinkers have created this wonderfully exciting airsoft game. It is still a new scenario for the airsofters, but honestly, a thrilling one. There is a President in the game who should be protected by his guards. This game can be played with any type of airsoft guns, whether pistols or rifles. 


Almost half of the total players are the protectors of the President. The rest of the players are the assassins who would be eager to kill the president before he reaches a safe place. The bodyguards of the president would make sure to defend the president until he is taken to a safe spot. 


That safe place for the president is specified before the game begins. The guards will also defend themselves against the assassins. Though the rules of this game are simple, there is a need to create a good strategy to win it. 


There must be a productive strategy to kill the president and win the game for the assassins while the guards must have a plan to defend the president at any cost.



7. Paratroopers

Paratroopers is a fun game. In this game, there is a group of paratroopers, often including ¼ of the total players. They are blindfolded and taken to their specific drop zones. There can be a single or more drop zones, based on your own preference. The paratroopers are provided a map over the area at their drop zones. 


At this stage, they can rendezvous with one another. The rest of the players are split for defending three objects in the different areas. The paratroopers need to take out those objects by stealing the flag and returning to the pickup zone with the flag. At the pickup zone, there is a judge. 


If he gets the flag, the paratroopers win. Their must be some faults in the map as well. For instance, at least one of the objects must be marked at the wrong area. Also, there can be an additional flag marked on the map. This is a game for those who love tactical scenarios.



8. Special Forces

“Special Forces” is identical to a military simulation. This is a popular game among the armed forces for training purpose. But, you can play it for fun. There are two teams including Special Forces and Bad Guys. The Bad Guys are often 8 while the Special Forces includes just 4 members. 


The members of Special Forces must make a good strategy to win the game because they are already outnumbered. The Bad Guys on the other hand start the game with a slight advantage. Those who play the game balance the competition by equipping the Special Forces with soke airsoft rifles while the Bad Guys with airsoft pistols. 


However, you can use similar weapons to make it challenging for the Special Forces. Also, you can incorporate some expert or better players in the Special Forces team and the rest in the other team. This would become a better competition when a few experts collide with the other team having twice as many people as the Special Forces team. 


This is why it is a great practice game for the military personnel as they build a strategy to deal with that many bad guys.



9. Officer

Among the most stimulating airsoft games, there is the Officer. It is quite similar to President. In this game, there are a couple of teams with one having an officer. The members of the other team hide in a very thick terrain and are equipped with some assault rifles or sniper rifles.

 

This team needs to shoot the officer when they see him. The Officer’s team should be prepared to defend the officer at any cost. The attacking team must be hidden and have automatic weapons. It is very hard to defeat this team.

 

The defending team is often tasked to shift the officer from one place to another, making sure that he does not get hit with a BB. If the officer is killed, the attacking team wins. However, if the defenders eliminate the attackers, they win the competition.



10. Bomb

Bomb is an invigorating airsoft game based on an interesting scenario. There is an involvement of a bomb, relax! not the real one. Rather, you can replace the bomb with anything else. So, the scenario is that one team should get the bomb to the other team’s base, making sure that they are not killed during this attempt. 


Once they successfully place the bomb in the base, the task of the other team is to dismantle it before it goes off. So, the first team still does not win. Rather, the final results is based on whether the other team manages to dismantle the bomb within time or not. 


If they successfully do so, they win, but if the time is up before dismantling it, they lose. However, they can win before even needing to dismantle the bomb if they kill all the members of the opposing team. 


Also, if the bomb placers eliminate the others before even placing the bomb, they win. You can take an egg timer as a bomb and set a time around five minutes. To make the game slightly difficult, you can lessen the time.
