BK Flag Wars

Image
Our second game of the year placed us in the lush forest of the Georgia countryside near Rome at Scenario Paintball Games.  No, not Rome Italy, but we can tell you there are fantastic Italian establishments to dine at in the area.  Flag Wars is the name of the game and each team aims to raise their flag at multiple stations throughout this expansive and diverse field of warfare.  Each 30 minutes the staff checks to see if and which flag is flying to award points.  Black Karma volunteered for the White Team and for the first day of play challenged ourselves with one of the most heavily contested areas – the Town.  After running through some deep cover in the woods, we were met with an awesome sight:  hundreds of little round brightly colored friends waiting to pat us on the body.  This made of each giggle with delight at each battle that we kept throwing ourselves toward, but sadly we were behind on points for the first part of the day.  Afte...

Gone in 60 Seconds

Image
Team Brute Force played on the 15th of April at the event 'Gone in 60 Second's' at Paintball Sports Paintball in Plattkill, NY.  Here is a write up of the event by the Team Owner Mike Revelle. This past weekend, Team Brute Force traveled to Plattekill, New York to play at Paintball Sports and their “Gone in 60 Seconds” scenario event. Craig and Paul met at Mike Revelle’s house at 1pm Saturday afternoon to jam three massive Planet Eclipse gear bags and the other necessities into a small Hyundai Veloster, later nicknamed the “Velociraptor.” After 25 minutes of playing life sized tetras, the car was packed and the three hit the concrete jungle of the Mass Pike and Interstate 84. The three and a half hour drive was filled with epic paintball war stories, country music, intense dub step, laughing at some seriously weird drivers, and listening to the Velociraptors seriously sexy navigation voice. Around 5:30pm, we finally rolled up to the hotel, che...

Ego9 Rawhide

Image
We received this email from Magnus 'Sideburns' Larson from Sweden. We thought you would also like to read about his Ego9 Rawhide project! Great work Magnus :) I bought myself my dream-marker some weeks ago, an Ego9 with the "Revolver"-graphics... When I got it home  I  felt it would be a disgrace to put a neoprene cover on the tank, and a standard looking Rotormag on it. It just wouldn´t look right...I wanted to take the "revolver" design to its perfection, with a rugged "cowboyish" style. So  I  got into my car, and went to town! In Aengelholm there is an old Leather/Hide store, which where put out of business for some 5 years ago, but the manager still lives in the building. I asked him to sell me some hide and leather, and  I  got it very cheap, 30$.  The biggest hide i bought was marked and produced in 1981! Well,  I  started to work on this project in the evenings after work,  I  hav...

NJ Jesters are not messing around !!

Image
http://www.newjerseyjesters.com/ Planet Eclipse Sponsored Team, NJ Jesters, started off the season with a 2nd place finish at the PSP TX event. Even though we had to play through rain and wind we were still able to keep it all together and finish off strong in 2nd place.    NJ Jesters train hard in the off season to get ourselves ready for the 2012 season and it showed off in the first event. Luckily for all northeast teams we did not have much of a winter and we were able to practice a lot more then we usually can. After TX we were determined to train harder and be ready again for PSP AZ.  We have had some great practices over the last month and we see ourselves even more ready this time and looking forward to taking home another trophy. We would like to Thank Planet Eclipse and Operation Stingray for their continued support. Markers and gear work flawlessly through the rain!! Planet Eclipse would like to congratulate NJ Jesters for a job well done and...

Scenario Chess at Generation Kill

Image
 Words and photos by Jason “foolybear” Lineberger Once a year Team Tango Alpha2 turns their attention away from completing missions to switch their hats and put on one of the best scenario games happening – the annual Generation Kill game.  Based on the book and the subsequent television series, the Generation Kill games blend the tactics of modern mil-sim events with a taste of the roleplaying that drove the games from the golden age of scenario paintball. This year’s Gen Kill, which took place on St. Patrick’s Day, headed away from the past settings in the Middle East and Afghanistan.  Subtitled “A Bad Day in Belfast” the 2012 Gen Kill pitted scrappy IRA fighters against US Marines in an imagined Irish conflict that juxtaposed serious action with some tongue-in-cheek missions.  Determined to keep the game lively, Tango captain Paul “Wingman” Metheney, tossed out missions to collect pots of gold, Lucky Charms (in boxes), and to deal with a cast of orne...

  www.hybrid-foto.com 2011 was a amazing year for HyBrid Foto. Not only did we become a official Swedish corporation with a new logo and profile, we grew in leaps and bounds.  Planet Eclipse was right there with us. As we traveled the world our Eclipse gear protected us from all the hits, kept our knees pain free as we kneeled down to get those perfect shots and helped transport our gearfrom tournament to tournament.   As we start 2012, we once more have teamed up with Planet Eclipse.  This year we have grown to four photographers,two videographers and two outstanding video editors here in Europe plus twophotographers taking care of the stateside action for us. Once more we turned to Eclipse for our protective gear (elbow pads, gloves, pants and overload jersey) as well as new gear bags to carry all of our new gear and equipment.  Without hesitation, Ledz said "Let's do it"!  This year we have upgradedboth video and photographic equi...
