On 19th of June the 3” stage of the Portuguese National Championship at Vila do Bispo – Algarve took place.. It was a very hot day and one that our team had to show why we are the best team… So it was a very important 3” stage for us. The last two stages of the Championship were a disaster. We took a third and eighth place finish, so this 3” stage was crucial if we still wanted to fight to get near the podium at the end of the Championship, and maybe, renew our title as Champions. Everyone in the team knew how important it was to play well and try not to do many mistakes… that’s why we practice the two weekends before and also the day before the championship, in our minds we were ready to play and win. We started the morning knowing we would play 3 games before semifinals; the first game was against our B team, Beira Mar Silver. We knew, it would be difficult because sister teams always want to show that they are better than the A team, and they came from ...

Bitburg is and have always been a great site,except the one year we played on the airstrip,but that's ancient history:) Its been a stable and good site with good view for spectators, easy access to fields, food and tradestands and for the lazy paintballer - we love the walking distance accommodation. Someone once said - Bitburg shows the German stability and quality - I can agree. The weather in Bitburg is not so stable - or maybe it is? T ends to be some light showers and some good sun in between. For us Norwegians Bitburg tend to crash with our national day, but for the lovers of Paintball that wont stop us from playing. For more times than I can count I've celebrated the Norwegian national day in Germany playing paintball, I never brought the national dress (would make my luggage a lot overweight) but I always bring flags and noisy toys. One other thing that crash with the Bitburg event is exam days, and this time Rebels suffered under that. Some of the guys ...

The Grim Reapers Sign With Planet Eclipse! It's been coming for several years now and captain Jay “Shadowfox” Jordan could not be happier:   “We are very excited to endorse Planet Eclipse!   We never endorse anything we personally do not use and believe in.   Several years ago a few of our players began using Planet Eclipse markers and as more players on the team tried them they would switch to them, and now the whole team uses them.   It just made sense.”     Why did they switch?   James “Rook” Hineman Grim Reaper XO:   “For the scenario player you need a marker that delivers firepower, accuracy, efficiency, and smoothness.   On top of that it has to be quiet so it is not as likely to give away our position and it must be reliable. These markers deliver of all that.   Add to that their amazing customer service, and it's a no brainer”. The Grim Reapers started out the season by putting on the scenario event called “...
