Action Report

We
had a great
turnout, great weather
and
divided into 5
competitive groups.
In
each game, the teams had 30 minutes , to capture enemy continents.
To successfully capture a continent a team
occupied a base AND had
their color flag up.
Continent points same as Risk Board Game. Teams
were
awarded one card per flag station turned to their color at end of
game.

The
Teams drew cards to determine
starting
positions,
and were redrawn a
after every three games.

common.

It
was elimination time for the unlucky Brown Team.
Whichever team could take and hold brown's
start position,
would assimilate the brown players into it's
ranks. The only way Brown could survive
was to
take out all comers. Green was the successful
team taking the position and swelling the Green Ranks.
Red
held the United States, Yellow took Russia, and Blue took
South America, Africa and Australia.
Game

Yellow
took Russia and Europe, Red took many positions, but ended
up holding only the United States
and Australia.
The

Night
Game
The
night game feature the capture of 7 dragon eggs, Shiny metal
globes centered on the field.
The Teams started in
their usual positions and became a battle royal in the
midfield. Each egg was
worth 7 Points, and each player
possessing one at game end would win a dragon patch for
his
personal accomplishment. It was moonless night,
and no eggs were collected. It was just too
dark in
the woods, and the game stalled out after the initial melee
which featured a huge number
of "friendly fire"
incidents.
Sunday.
Arrived cool and windy, with the threat of rain. A few
of the defeated Brown team disappeared
in the dark of night, A fresh contingent of Sunday players were evenly spread
among the teams. The teams thus
re-leveled the games
began
Game
One
10
minutes into the game a cold rain started, and looked
ominous. The troops move quickly into
contact trying
to eliminate as
many enemy as possible. Then just as quickly as it got
started,
the rain and wind dropped, and a perfect cool
weather paintball
day prevailed.
Green
swept across the North, taking America Europe Russia and
also Australia. Red took
South America,. and Blue was
able to hold Africa.

Game
Six
The
game was incredibly close. If any team could take 4
continents, victory was assured.
If
a team could take three countries and catch a little luck of
the draw, the game would be theirs!
By
now the gamesmanship was at supercharged level, as each team
tried to construct coalition by
which they might get
the
better of the bargain. While it was impossible
for the this writer to
determine which deals were broken,
never existed,
or honored. There were many barrel taps right
at the
closing bell. Red
was able to take Russia, Australia and Europe. Green
Secured United States,
South America, and Africa.
Green
and Red had fought well, with each taking 3 countries,
and earning 3 Risk Cards.
Green
would have a total of six Cards, it was a mathematical
long shot there would be two
Sets, in six cards.
But
the Gods of war smiled upon Green, delivering a
Joker!
Green
was victorious and each player was presented with a World
Forces pin.

This comment sent by
Blue Commander, Bill Bones:
ABOUT MIDWAY THROUGH THE FIRST DAY THE BLUE TEAM WAS
LEADING AND HAD MADE A PACT WITH SOME OTHER TEAMS WHEN
SOME MEMBERS OF THE BLUE TEAM TOOK IT ON THEIR OWN TO
BREAK THE PACT AND SCORE SOME POINTS. FROM THAT
POINT ON THE BLUE TEAM HAD NO FRIENDS FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE GAME. IT WAS ALL DOWN HILL FROM THERE AS THE
BLUE TEAM MADE A STEADY DECLINE FROM FIRST TO LAST.
