Laser Combat Mission Themes include:
Analyst Assassination – The assassins must work quickly and intelligently before the opponents get to the RV point with their VIP alive. The analyst (the target) is wearing a different hat to everyone else so they can be identified.
Bio-chem Hazard - Two teams set out to search and recover bio-chem hazards within the enemy compound. The teams will achieve different points for the different types of hazards recovered and the way in which these are recovered – it’s a battle against time to see who recovers the most and gains the most points.
Escort the Nuclear Scientist – The team is set up as a close protection team tasked with escorting their VIP to the Safe House from the far end of the woods to the briefing zone – the VIP will only have three lives whilst the bodyguards and assassins will have five lives set for the game. The VIP must arrive alive!
Spy Base Defence – Secret Agents must defend their HQ. Not all agents will be allowed to remain in HQ and the team must determine where to position the rest of the team. They will be equipped with a claymore mine to ambush the enemy with.
Spy Base Attack – Secret Agents must infiltrate the enemy HQ. Two members of the team will be issued with sniper’s rifles with telescopic sights to get a closer look at the enemy camp!

A Day in the Country like to work closely with you to design challenges that address your specific business goals in a lively context that is more tactical than physical. To this end, we have developed a ropes course that encourages teambuilding, personal development and networking that’s not only different and challenging, but great fun too.
If one of our programmes does not meet with your needs, then we will be delighted to quote you a special day combining ropes courses and team building activities for a multi activity day. We would also be pleased to quote for any other activity not mentioned here.
