Another month in 2008 and yet another great MPP game experience. Earlier this month PCM had the privilege to play down at one of our favorite fields Adventure Beach Paintball near Tabor City, NC. Knowing team Shadow Group, the field owner Kevin, and Ben and Bonnie from MPP games like we do, we also KNEW this was going to be a great game and right down the street from home.
Surprising enough, it wasn't the American markers that took us to task (not to say they weren't around because they were and there were a firing) as it was the heat and humidity. But the great field, game production, opponents and ref'ing made it an overall great day.
Night play was just as impressive, showing off the great lighting of Tippmann Town and the giant bonfire. Fortunately for those of us (KURB!!!!) that decided to be lazy for night play several of the night missions where based around said town, and several of the folks sitting out got a nice show from the sidelines and comfort of their camping chairs.
Sunday was surprisingly cooler temperature wise, and the play just as great. Although the Germans kept a lead late into the day, a strong 4th quarter push by the Americans lead them to a victory.
Luckily the beauty of scenario play is not matter how many points your team may or may not score the fun had lets everyone walk away a winner. PCM did manage to work ourselves to a Most Valuable Team Award, and Kurb got himself an MVP.
We want to thank our buds from Southern Discomfort, Rooster and Cannibal for coming down and running XO and General duties respectively. As a side note, it was Cannibals first time generaling and everyone involved agreed he did a great job. Omni Force and all the American teams, thank you for your honorable and competitive play. Adventure Beach and Shadow Group ran a tight, but fun environment, and as always MPP Games put on a incredible game.
