The life of a bug is a harsh existence.   Bugs have no emotions, no fear, no guilt; they only go after what they need to survive, no matter what the cost.   Klendathu is our home, and we will defend the “Brain Bugs” to the very end.   The opposing “Mobile Infantry” are only pebbles that we can move with our ever-growing network of family.   These “Federation Humanoids” only come to our home because our “Tanker Bugs” diverted an asteroid to their home planet. Much like space, our day started off cold for a late March game at Bearclaw Paintball .   Our general David “Deeznuts” Ferguson had pondered overnight our strategy for attack on this neutral planet like the “Brain Bug” he was.   Before game on at our pre-placements throughout the field, we anticipated popping up like the Bugs we were supposed to be.   The game-start gunshot rang out and we hurriedly ran towards our objectives to control key positions throughout the field before having ...

Rebels Part 2 – conquering Bitburg The season has started everywhere else, but not in Norway so Rebels went to Trolle to play at Paintball-SM, the Swedish series. They advanced to the swedish CPL last year so this was their first shot at the big guys in Sweden. Here they could meet teams like Joy Division, MASH, Ignition and Blast. The tournament was a great one in weather and games, but by meeting MASH, Solid and Devils from Mash, it was not Rebels day. They took some good points in the 4-3 game against Devils from Mash, but it was not enough to go through. Even though the results didnt go their way, the team felt that this fieldlayout would suit their style of play with a few adjustments. This time they couldn’t make the practice hours in Millennium, but they still felt well prepared from the weekend in SM. The field looked really good and the real grass made playing on it great. We are not used to that anymore, often it’s thin turf and knee injuries :-( Fr...

Battle report from the first leg in the Swedish Paintball Championship............ After a long winter and a lot of preparation, it was finally time to see if belonged in Division 1 or not. GRIN Stockholm was founded 13 years ago and for this season we did a reboot of the team. In the beginning of this season we took in some new young players and our hope was that the mix of young hungry players and old experience players would take us to the top. Our goal this season is to win Division 1 and now it was finally time to make it happen. The first leg of the Swedish Paintball Championship (PBSM) was held in Trolle, in southern Sweden. Our first game was a hard-fought one against Generation Joy. Unfortunately we lost it 1-2 and got thrown down into the losers bracket. Not the start we wished for, but we kept our heads high and continued to fight our way through the bracket. We won the following 6 games and ended up in the semi-finals against BFP. The game was close, but w...

By Jason “foolybear” Lineberger Team Capital Offense is proud to represent Planet Eclipse at scenario paintball games around the United States.   This spring we’ve been all over the place!   Here’s a quick recap of the splatter and havoc. In April Team Capital Offense converged on Splatbrothers Paintball in Hopewell, VA.  This field has a long scenario history, and it’s become a regular stop on the Capital Offense tour.  This year we attended Fury Road, a game inspired by the upcoming Mad Max movie installment. Fury Road began with an assault on the central towers field (an impressive trench-lined field crossed by three large towers connected with catwalks), one that our opposition won handily.  They quickly established dominance and this early edge boosted their morale.  Good thing too, because we brought the fight to them for the rest of the weekend! Synergy happens when the combined effect of all the parts is greater than the ...
