Thailand is BACK ???

-
10+ years ago there used to be a little tournament that happened every year in Thailand. Now for an event in the Far East it certainly had its fare share of European and American Pro players in attendance. Having never attended myself I’m not really sure why. Could it be the great weather? The friendly hospitality? The extremely inexpensive cost of living? Cheap booze and food? A great Paintball tournament? Or could it be something else ;-) Well, all I know that every year the ‘Guys’ got themselves ready for a great event in Thailand. The event ran its course and faded away along with the rumours and stories…. But hold on, it looks like it could be coming back.

The event is open to all Div 1 teams (No CPL, SPL, Pro or Semi Pro Teams).





The organisers are super keen for teams to make the trip over and have been working on keeping the costs of the event to a minimum for international teams and have some amazing deals on hotels, transport etc. If this is something you fancy playing then drop the event organisers a quick e-mail and see what you can arrange… If the Pre Tourney hype is even half lived up to the event will be ‘Off The Hook’.

Here is a little more info that I have got about the divisions and the prize money:

Division 1:

Team Capital Offense   attended the "Mutant Warfare" Scenario from Guru Games at Sherwood Forest. This event utilized next gen technology replacing outdated flag stations with digital & RFID technology.  Picture Courtesy of: Matthew Walton of Guru Games  Player ca rds are now tied to the scenario and are no longer just for chronos and safety briefs. Players use their cards to capture flag stations, acquire props and return for points, conduct game missions and more.  Picture courtesy of: Jon Barber The score was tracked in real time using Wi-Fi and RFID technology and a virtual game map was displayed that showed faction control as it happened.  Players were also able to score points individually and see their ranking on the leaderboard.  Developed by Matthew "MrEspn" Walton of Guru Games, the game also integrated Discord for live event updates and VOIP chats.

We always love to see new teams join the Planet Eclipse family and here we are welcoming the exciting Toulouse Purple Semi Pro team with open arms. Our good friends at Camp Paintball in France had this to say about their new signing:   We are delighted to announce that the Toulouse Purple Club and its Teams have chosen to shoot the Planet Eclipse CS3 & Geo R5 markers from now on. At last, they'll be able to shoot the most fragile paint available and rely on the proven reliability of Planet markers. Firmly focused on the future and working hard on a daily basis, the Toulouse Purple Club will benefit from comprehensive training with our official Tech Éric "cheveux" Spitzmuller, so that they in turn can pass on advice, information and tips. We're particularly pleased with this choice, which is in line with our desire to be as close as possible to our players and teams. We have no doubts about the Club's future performance! WE GOT YOUR BACK! Well, we echo the sent...
