Vicinity:

The site is 10-15 minutes away from the Santolan LRT2 Station and Sta. Lucia Mall on Marcos Highway. It is also the same approximate distance from Rosario, Pasig City. It is about 10 minutes away from Eastwood City (Quezon City) via Calle Industriya Street in Bagumbayan.

Fort Magsaysay Airsoft Gamesite (red marker below) is located in Manggahan, Pasig City, and just five minutes drive from the former Baghdad airsoft gamesite.

The Fort Magsaysay airsoft gamesite address is :

Lot #405 Manggahan Real Road
Manggahan, Pasig City
Metro Manila, Philippines

The map below is accurate except for the route arrow which has changed because of the MRR traffic rerouting plan.

Travel Directions:

As of 17 May 2008, the short stretch of Ramon Magsaysay Street between Amang Rodriguez Avenue and Manggahan Real Road has been blocked to traffic. Manggahan Real Road is now a one-way street with traffic going northward only. The entrance to Manggahan Real Road is now at Apolinario Mabini Street, approximately 400 meters to the south of Ramon Magsaysay Street. Please check the traffic rerouting plan and ask for Pasig City traffic assistance to avoid confusion.

1. Approach along Amang Rodriguez Avenue (either from Marikina or Pasig directions).


2. Near Santa Lucia Parish Church and iPark Center Shops (Burger Machine Kiosk) -- pedestrians only.


3. Enter Apolinario Mabini Street and Baranggay Manggahan marker (arch above the road)


4. Turn north (left) at the first corner = Manggahan Real Road (locally known as MRR)


5. Proceed northward approximately 1 km, cross Ramon Magsaysay Street, until you reach a yellow wall and a rust red gate on the eastern (right-hand) side (Lot #405 MRR). Ask caretaker to open the gate.


6. Find a parking spot inside the compound, or if already full, along the parking lane of MRR beside the wall (drop off guns and players first inside the compound, to avoid alarming the local residents).

(Look for the rust red colored gate with concrete wall as shown in the photo below -- the wall is now painted bright yellow.)

Entrance Fee, Requirements and Contact Person

Playing Field Description

The playing area is a flat grassy field with minor dips and mounds. The field has ankle-high to thigh-high grass with scattered grass tussocks and small trees. There are designated outposts with flags for "attack/defend the base" scenarios.

Except for a few portions on the boundaries, there are no major diggings, high elevations, hard concrete surfaces, no deep ditches, no swampy watercourses.

The field has been enhanced with movable erected barricades and grass-filled sacks to serve as mini-bunkers. These barricades can be adjusted or rearranged for speedball arena or close-quarters combat (CQC/CQB) scenarios.

Spectators can make use of an elevated platform area to watch the entire field -- eye protection (goggles and masks) are required for everyone. (Reminder: All spectators and non-active players must stay out of the line of fire and avoid coaching or interfering with the game play.)

Airsoft's Honesty System and Rules of Fair Play
When hit by a direct-fired BB (not a ricochet or gun hit), each player must do the following immediately:

• Shout "Hit" to acknowledge the hit then raise the gun or a hand and stand up.


• if you don't acknowledge your first hit, other players can keep on shooting at you repeatedly ("overkill") and a marshal will eject you from the game (and you will be known as a "zombie" or "undead cheater").


• Bring out a red or orange cloth and place it on his head or shoulder to serve as a hit indicator (this is known as a "dead man's rag" in the USA, but was pioneered in the Philippines by the Action Games League).


• Walk back to the safe zone to wait for the next game. Do not cross the line of fire between opposing active players to avoid getting hit again.


• Avoid talking to anybody else about what you know or about the situation ("Dead men can't talk").

Know what to do in borderline, questionable situations such as those described below:

• If you suffer a gun or equipment malfunction that cannot be repaired on the field, or if you feel for any reason that you may have been hit, please call yourself out and walk off the field. You can correct the equipment problem and play again in the next game.


• Do not reactivate yourself to rejoin the same game unless authorized to do so by a marshal, or you will be known as a cheater ("a mummy"). Only a marshal can authorize "re-spawning" and only for specific scenarios (such as having a designated team medic).


• Do not pretend to be hit if you still aren't (this is called "playing possum"), and try to gain an unfair advantage over your opponents. This type of tactic may cause unnecessary hard feelings that could damage gentlemanly camaraderie. (Note: "playing possum" is a term adopted from the Action Games League's Rulebook.)


• When in point-blank range of an opponent, you can fire one shot at a protected body part (avoiding unnecessary injury), or touch the opponent (not his gun!) for a "simulated knife kill."


• Avoid using harsh language or physical contact that could turn into a real fight. You would then be suspended from further play.

Play safely, honestly, and fairly. Your reputation is at risk.
