Fall Games

The first game on the agenda is the Splatterpark Big Fall Game. Splatterpark has two huge games every year which average about 1,500 players. The theme for this game is Z.E.R.O which stands for Zombie Emergency Response Operation, so you guessed it, its a zombie apacolypse game. Throughout the day the field staff will be leading players to different areas of the field and giving them objectives to complete. The team who completes the most objecives and racks up points wins.

I've personally played the big games 6 or 7 times and its a blast. There's a huge field that more than accommodates all the players, comeplete with forts, a downed air plane, a huge shipping container yard and plenty of woods to sneak around in. At the end of the day there's a massive 700 vs 700 iron man match called the reign of paint and the field gives away an entire truck load of free gear by raffle and tossing things in the crowd after the games over. There's no transportation for this game, but i do encourage die hard club members to make the trip if you've never played a scenario before. Check splatterpark.com for details.

Next up is a trip to a local woodsball field on the 8th. It takes place roughly 10 miles away from town, everyone will need to drive or car pool with other club members. I can give directions for anyone who plans to attend. All players will need to provide their own paint for this game, guns are available to rent at the school if needed.

The last planned game for right now is the starship troopers scenario down in minford. I'm working on getting transportation to this game. This field is located inside an old silica mine that has been inspected and played in before. All players attending will need a flash light to attach to their markers. Certain areas of the field are lighted, but its mostly pitch black, it provides a whole new element to the game you can't find many places else.

Players will need to provide their own paint for this game, there may be a small field fee to pay for field insurance.

Send me an email if you are interested in any of these games, have questions, or suggestions for the club.
