AAR: March Meltdown Event @ EMR, "The Paintballing Dead"
What a weekend, and what a way to start of another successful season! This year, Aaron "War Machine" Gurish, and Jared "Subway" Klossner, as General, and X.O. respectively, were able to command a motley crew of misfits (with a couple of organized teams) to a victory. The final score was 10000 points vs 7000 points, with the special awards breaking down as follows:
Most Valuable Team: Norwich University Cadets, led by "Smarts"
Most Valuable Player: "Hunter" from Sons of Affliction
Young Gun: AJ Gardner
Most Formidable Opponent: Wildcards
The winning strategy appeared to be a combination of key missions, as well as well-timed flag captures, especially the high-point-value flags that were located nearest the Zombie insertion point. Peter "Cookie Monster" Murphy, as the commander of the Zombie Horde, did his level-best to throw bones, and other assorted body parts in both The Survivors and The Townspeople's works, but the Living were able to ultimately defeat the Dead. Eric Engler also played the part of a Zombie, and even cracked out his MG-42 machine gun for part of the day. It was a wonder to hear and behold, as the un-muffled shots could be heard throughout the entire facility. Another interesting point was how the modifications to Ft. Worr (more windows, etc) modified how hard/easy the Fort has become to attack/defend. Fall Castle, which is slated to be held at Ft. Worr, is going to be a slugging match this year. It should really turn out to be a fun game! Pictures of the event will be posted in the team album as soon as they can be sourced. See you at Spring Castle! |
