www.sbpscenarios.com It's been over a year since the humans crash landed on the Skaarg home planet. After endless battles and losing warriors on both sides, the humans have finally set up a suitable stronghold.  Under the command of their new leader "Captain Rico" (Rick Fernandez of Top Gun Productions), the humans have refreshed their goal of trying to get off the planet successfully. Unfortunately, standing in the way are the Skaarg alien force. Headed by their recently appointed general, "The Gwaltinator" (Jeff Gwaltney of the SE IYAOYAS).  After losing his family and his alien force weakened in the struggle with the humans over the previous year, The Gwaltinator and his newly appointed forces have no intention of letting the humans leave his planet without exacting his revenge.

NEMESIS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Image
The Far East is a rapidly emerging force in the Paintball World and I personally have had the great pleasure of visiting the area many times and seen the sport grow and develop extensively over the last few years. One of the teams that has continually impressed me is Team Nemesis. They seem to have a dogged determination that clearly pays dividends as their trophy cabinet is full to the rafters. It was a pretty big surprise and a pleasure when Team Nemesis approached Planet Eclipse for sponsorship for 2012 and beyond. And it’s with great pleasure that Skirmish Asia and Planet Eclipse can announce that Team Nemesis have now joined the Emortal Army! TC Gan has said “Skirmish Paintball Asia is very proud to officially announce that Team Nemesis has accepted Planet Eclipse sponsorship for their 2012 season.

Not a huge amount of video passing  in front of my eyes in the last few weeks (that I can show you ;-). So here are three noteworthy ones. First one is a little tongue in cheek parody. As it says in the video NEVER take your goggles off while playing Paintball, but this is obviously NOT playing paintball and is for FUN… Remember it’s FUN!!! Amazing Action Video for number 2. It’s like my Snowboarding trip last week …… Almost ! 3rd and final for this round up is Girls with very little on with nice guns… (for the first 1 ½ minutes at least). What more do I need to say !

Check this out below from Kerry “Viper” Rosenberry My first weekend with my new Eclipse gear....... I just thought I would put something together for those of you contemplating purchasing gear from Planet Eclipse. I recently went out for a day of recball and used my new Eclipse gear for the first time. Here are my impressions.
