Paintball this weekend - Orion Valley - February 6, 2010

Sorry for the late notice on this weekend's game. Our modem went down this week, so we got to reminisce on what life was like back in 1991 . . .

We will be playing this Saturday, February 6th in the Valley. We'll get started with playing at 10am, with guest briefing at 9:45am, so make sure you are ready to go at that time. The weather looks like it will be great - sunny and cool, but it should still be pretty muddy from the rains.

Primary scenario: INFILTRATOR!!

The fort is built and it's time to test it out.

For the first time at Orion Valley, we're going back to the OG - that's right (not the Olive Garden, Wiski!) - full 360 degree Infiltrator!

If you've played with us for awhile (a long while), this is the game you have missed. If you haven't - this will blow the Dam Game out of the water.

Special requirements: None (but the attacking team will be allow radios, so bring your Talkabouts/Sport 7s if you have them).

If you plan on bringing on someone as a guest this weekend, please let me know in advance, so that we can have some gear put aside for them.

Bring a ruck and what you need to sustain while playing. Also bring out some leather gloves and whatever implements of destruction you need to affect changes upon the field.

Please note, if you need directions they are posted in the forums, under the "Orion Raiders Paintball" section. There will also be a games discussion for this weekend listed there as well.

The First A-Team Trailer

The moment you all have been waiting for is here.

The first trailer for the new A-Team movie got released today and in a word - it looks AWESOME.



A few happies:

1) Liam Neeson looks to be a great Hannibal (cigar and all)

2) Sharlto Copley from District 9 as Murdock

3) Rampage keep the BA Baracus hair-do

3) The A-Team van!

If this is half as good as the trailer looks, then this will more than make up for GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

Paintball this weekend - Orion Valley - January 9, 2010

We will be playing this Saturday, January 9th in the Valley. We'll get started with playing at 10am, with guest briefing at 9:45am, so make sure you are ready to go at that time. It should be pretty cold, so come prepared to deal with the weather. We will be doing a little bit of work on the fields and then getting into the games.

Primary scenario: Hunter

You have successfully bugged out of the city, but due to the chaos, you have lost your primary weapon. However, you do have some gear, including your back-up pistol, a knife, some rope, and water. Tired from your rapid egress, and bordering on hunger, you follow a small heard of deer into a dark valley. You take a shot a deer, but once you get close to enough to harvest the game, you realize you aren't alone . . . .

Special requirements: Paintball pistol, or pump rifle. If you have neither, you will be hand-loading your primary for this scenario.

If you plan on bringing on someone as a guest this weekend, please let me know in advance, so that we can have some gear put aside for them.

Bring a ruck and what you need to sustain while playing. Also bring out some leather gloves and whatever implements of destruction you need to affect changes upon the field.

Look forward to seeing everyone there!

Paintball this weekend - Dripping Springs - October 3, 2009

We will be playing this Saturday, October 3rd at Dripping Springs. Be there and ready to go by 10am. We'll have our guest briefing at 9:45am.

If you are meeting up at the Dairy Queen - plan on being there by 9:15am. If you are caravaning up from my place - we'll be leaving there at 8:15am.

Bring a ruck and what you need to sustain while playing. We'll play until around 1pm and then I'll be heading over for some BBQ at the Salt Lick - so make sure to plan time for that if you can make it out.

We'll probably stage initially at the cars, play a few open-field games, and then move to some longer scenarios.

Right now it looks like sunny weather with a high in the low 80s, with a chance of rain, so it shouldn't be too hot. Just keep an eye on the weather and we'll go from there.

If you are playing as a guest or plan on bringing a guest along, let me know ASAP, and we'll throw some kit together for you.
