Pics from the game with TAG
All the following pics were taken by Nematode from tag. He always takes outstanding pics and I thank him greatly for the awesome pics.
TAG on the 21st of November.
After a battle with CSG we retired for the night to rest for the next day of gaming.
We arrived at the TAG field and said hi to the guys and got sorted.
First game of the day was virus to warm up and get to know the others. virus is always the same so will skip this part.
Second game of the day was capture the VIP. One of the tag guys was the VIP and was given two body guards and they went and found a hiding spot in the middle of the field. The objectives of the game were to find the VIP and kill his two body guards and then escort him back to our base which we then had to hold for 15 mins. the teams were split so our MT team was on one side with 3 TAG members and the other teams was made up of just TAG members.
This was the best game i have played so far. we worked perfectly as a team. the other team found him first but due to them making a careless mistake he escaped from them. we then found him and escorted him back to our base after a very long 15 mins we managed to win the game. Too our delight a few TAG members commented on how well we had played as a team. After the game we played a few games of base assault and then called it a day. We left Christchurch very happy indeed. i will now spend the rest of the week nursing my sore muscles back into working order.
I'll upload some pics above this post.

CSG on 20th of november
first of two posts from the weekend.
On Friday our Dunedin MT team drove up to Christchurch. The first day of gaming was against CSG on Saturday. CSG had planned a big day but wern't aware that we were coming up. all they new was that there was a sniper team in the field somewhere and they had to find them and capture them. We were told to arrive about a hour late so they had all ready begun the game. Our mission was to sneak onto the field find the sniper team and then complete 4 objectives while ambushing the destorying the other team. only the CSG member who had organised the game new we were going to be there. the sniper team was told that at some point a team was going to link up with them and help them.
we arrived at the field all geared up and ready to go. we made radio contact with the sniper team and got their position. we set of towards them and about 10 mins later found ourselves surrounded by about 25 enemies. To put it lightly we got our asses handed to us. we retreated and then they followed and destroyed us again. so retreated and lost them finally. after regrouping and sorting ourselves out we managed to hook up with the sniper team. we spent the rest of the day running from the enemy whilst compleating our objectives. It was a fun day in all and everyone was completely exhausted by the end of it all. Sean had a pedometer in his pocket and it said we had walked/ran 12km over the day carrying all our gear required for the day.
Th field is a huge pine block with long fire breaks.
After the big game was finished we played a few small games such as base assault. over all a awesome day.

Sunday 14/11/2010
Finally a game. Arrived at the Killmog field just before 10am, unloaded all my gear, ran across the highway getting weird looks from the passer by's, cant blame them and down into the bush to our lunch area. After a catch up with everyone, we got geared up and sent the new guys out on initiation. I cant for the life of me remember what the outcome of that was. I have a feeling I might have been shot straight away, but I cant remember. We then played virus. Feel kinda bad about this one. I went to a spot I like before the game started and waited and saw a new guy about 20 m away hiding behind a tree, his back to me so I lined up the shot and to add insult to injury put the laser in the middle of his back. (We don't like to use lasers when aiming as they can damage the eyes, they are more used for tactics, eg. Theres someone behind the tree with the laser on it or I want you to move up to that spot where the laser is). One of the other senior members saw the laser on the new guys back, saw me and gave me the thumbs up and started giggling. Someone shouted out "game on" and I immediately shot him twice in the lower back. Still kinda feel bad for doing that but oh well. I got shot as well about 5 secs after by the one who was giggling.
After virus we started a base assault game. We played 4 defenders and 5 attackers. We managed to hold the base for about half a hour until they got lucky and killed all 4 of us one of them managed to get into the base to the flag while we were waiting to re-spawn but due to a mix up in the rules (need three attackers in the base to remove the flag) we came alive again and retook the base. After retaking the base we called the game and went for lunch.
After lunch we replayed base assault but this time switched the teams around. After listening to moans that it was impossible to take the base we took it in about 6 mins.
We then went up the cliff to play on the new part of the field. The bush was very dense up there so moving around was pretty hard. We were playing pilot down but as rules hadn't really been given, everyone gave up and moved back down to the old field. We started another game which was new, where Sean was the payload and was only armed with a table as a shield. He started off in the middle with a total of 6 re-spawn points spread across the field. Both teams started at their furthest away ones. Object of the game was to push the payload to the other teams base. Sean could only move when someone was touching him. Once a team had pushed them past a re-spawn point they had captured. It all made for a fun game that I look forward to playing again. We had to call the game early as it was getting late and people had to leave.
After that we packed up and headed home happy and sore. Waking up on Monday morning I felt like I had been hit by a truck. Wouldn't want it any other way. Got a big game this weekend but thats all i'm saying for now. Will update next week.
Catch ya.
Ps. heres some pictures from the last game and the one before it.
I'm shining my super bright torch at the cam. Does a goos job at hiding me.

On the weekend of the 20th a team of 5 DAC members myself included will be heading up to christchurch to play CSG on the saturday and then either TAG on sunday or CSG again on sunday. Should be a great weekend. We had a fixit night at halos place last fortnight and he took a few of us through how to take our mech boxes apart and how to change out the guns springs and how to fix the inner workings of our guns. It was a good night as we all learnt alot.
