“Angola July 9th 1979... Angola is in the middle of civil war. The UN move to keep the rebel forces from getting a WMD from underground arms dealers. An elite group of specialist assembled from 25 nations, move in and attack the Cuban backed Angolan army for control of the “Black Sun”. It was all supposed to be a one hour operation until the reality of the plan came to light. Now, the elite international force had bitten off more than they can chew and the locals may change the world as we know it.”
This scenario event is NOT your normal “big game”. The shooting starts at 17:00hrs and will run until at least 01:00hrs (game could end as late as 03:00hrs). The game is played in scenes that last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour each with 15 minute brakes between each scene. The scenes are set up on a pyramid chart that starts on the top and flows down from there. Each scene will effect what scene in pulled out and issued into the game. The game will not be ‘scored’ in a traditional manner. The game is scored with “decisive victory/loss”, “major victory/loss”, “minor victory/loss” or “draw”. So, the winner is decided based on the simple facts of did you compete your mission or not.
The first half of the battle will be during day light. The first contact will be on over 100 acres with no set boundary or known/set approach. As the second scene opens it will become shorter play zones and more concentrated fights.
The second half of the game will be after dark. At night, all lights are legal and night vision equipment is in full use. Each scene will be run with a “sudden death” goal that will not leave any room for loose calls. There will also be pyros and other special effects on the field for this event.
This event will be run more like an actual military training operation than a paintball scenario event.
The game will be capped at 80 players. (including NPC’s, special guests and commanders the event will still be less than 100 total on the field)
This is a high intensity hot weather event. So, we suggest only physically fit, gung-ho and hard core players attend. Every year we have between 5-8 players drop out of the game due to exhaustion or heat. Bring lots of water and eat a good meal before you come.
Some of the game features in the plans are a fully functional armored patrol boat, trip flares, pyrotechnics and much more…
