There’s something about 7 man.
October 12, 2009
well, we didn’t win the Ham.
(that was the prize for the team who finished last – 7 hams)
In fact we finished 3rd, the winning team being Cowboys Paintball, a team of old school 7 man players who really play a solid tactical game…
I really liked 7 man, i think it’s a much better game for me. I wanted to use Joey’s brand new Pink Etek, but as always one of the kids on my team broke his gun, so i had to lend him that and shoot my Ironmen DM3
(it’s not actually a DM3 – it’s a Gen-E matrix that has been custom Milled)
This gun isn’t great for 7 man, because it’s not that efficient, however it is ridiculously Accurate, and great for setting up a trap and catching other players off guard. In one game i managed to get 3 guys to run into my trap in about 10 seconds… basically destroying their offence.
One thing i had forgotten: it’s been so long since i had to walk the trigger in Semi, that i actually had trouble the first few points. I really had to think about rolling the trigger.
Anyhow the day was fun, i was able to pull out a couple of wins for the team, and get back in time to pick Joey up from the Airport.
I think i will try to play 7 man more often… it really is fun.
