Winter Wars @ Field51

Sounds really cool, what kind of paint is going to be available? I'm assuming Polar Ice

I was thinking of going back to the DXS Frostbite Paintballs Winter Formula

It's not perfect, but hasn't let me down.

The first, in what is hoped to be a series of winter events,

Frozen Tundra – The Russians have invaded in hopes of claiming vast amounts of oil reserves for the mother country. It’s the dead of winter the temps are dropping into the –30s. The Russians have taken the USA by complete surprise, there is no way to get the troops trucked in as the winter roads are blocked by the worst winter storms in years. Our only hope is the paratroopers being dropped behind enemy lines, the area we called Alaska.



- Series starts Jan 15th 2011.

OOOHHH!!!! SOUNDS LIKE FUN!!!

And if this weather keeps up it wont even be that cold!

Sounds like a blast. How many do you think will be there? Start time?

I was out there today setting up a few needed items... supprised at how much snow has gone already.....

So by series, is this going to be a ongoing weekly game, monthly, or once a year? And have you gone back to that dxs frostbite or still the stuff you had at the xmas event? Or is it BYOP? Ty.

On going? - Nope (going to mix it up) - Monthly (unless we get to much snow to move)

I did get the frost bite in for this one, and will be selling the polar ice off cheap if anyone wants it.

And do to the running in the snow I may divide the day into two parts and let both sides a chance to be the other team?? Not sure of this yet....

This sounds like a great time. Great thought going into the scenario as always Norm.

I'm going if its above 20 degrees or snowing, or both. Fun fun

We'll have the snow after this Wed’ storm!!!

The day will be mission driven - not the normal prop retrieval, so if you like action, and completing missions... this might be your event.

I’ve taken Wed off from work to stay on top of the parking lot plowing…. This is the first winter game the field has hosted, and I’m pumped to see how it will play out.
Re-spawns will be every 10 minutes. There will be re-spawn locations on the field so non-of the walking from the setup areas to re-spawns
See you Sat!!

Anyone want see the Hot dogs again?

Hope you have some wintergrade paint available.

Well Stocked and ready.

Sounds great! I'm sure MMA will want in on one of these games.

24 Hour count down to the first winter games at 51 - "Winter Wars - Frozen Tundra".

Hoping to see a lot of brave souls willing to battle for the area called Alaska!!



Russians??
or
US??

Which team will you battle for....

Sadly neither this time around... the only weekend where we get swamped at work..... AAAAHHHH!!!!

Just incase anyone was wondering...


USA recaptured Alaska and drove the Russians back to the Siberian deadbox (repeatedly) and the hot cheerleaders came to celebrate and warm us up!
