I think Trina and I might be down. we havn't done one in a while and now that I'm stationed at West Point, EMR is just a hop skip and jump away! If you start a new thread, put a link to it on this one! :shooting:

^^I like how you're using that Canadian guy as a bunker. (If that is you...)

He's the one with the 'mag.

There are always a lot of 'Mags at EMR. Heck, there's a lot of everything. You still see plenty of flavor-of-the-month guns but the classics are all over the place. You won't see much diversity at Castle games because everyone is using their paint slingers but if you show up for any of the other games throughout the year there's a very large group of pumpers, limited paint players, old school semis and other niche markers. If you've never been you just don't know what you're missing.

I'm in the SCP cabin. Stop by and say hi if you think of it.

Yea, I'm the one with the Mag. The guy behind me is a teammate & my backman, so I'm quite used to having him shoot over my shoulder. I just find it funny that the guy with 75+ lbs. on me is using the skinny guy for cover :D

Did you pop over to the cabana afterwards while we were hoisting a few?

I'm not even sure I know what you mean, :rofl:

I did sneak over to the Canadian Contingent's camp and try out a Y-Grip'd Mag and get to hold an X-mag or two. Very nice. After which I made a quick trip over to the Ferrymen's Bunkhouse to take this picture (Canadians with alcohol that they dont want to drive back home make me happy) This is why EMR continues to be my favorite field... :cheers:

I know we'll be there for both Castles and Pump Pandemonium next year. (Attacking in the spring and heading the defence in the fall). :clap:

Castle is an amazing day of play. EMR has great fields and great refs. People travel from all over the country to play there. One of the guys on our team (MCB) flew in from Alaska...

Plus, the after party is always a blast.

-MR
my team (MV ELITE) and I are planning on playing castle conquest sometime in the next two years (i wanna play defense!). I met "blue" at our last scenario game 28 days after, and he said emr has lodging, food, and awesome parties! so we will go down there sometime. mabe we will meet up.

Oh, my bad. I saw the word Canadian and I instantly thought the guy in red/black was the Canadian one. I'm not sure why... :rolleyes:

Yea, I'm the one with the Mag. The guy behind me is a teammate & my backman, so I'm quite used to having him shoot over my shoulder. I just find it funny that the guy with 75+ lbs. on me is using the skinny guy for cover :D
Well, some cover's better than no cover... :D

Very sweet 'Mag, by the way. :wow:

What kind of body is that? I've never seen it before!

It's a raw slug that he'd milled himself. It looks cooler in person. Thanks for the compliment on my Karta, but I assure you it looks much nicer with its black Ultralite backs :D

I cut the rail and body a little over three and a half years ago, it's been my main marker since.
Man that pic sure shows the wear and tear on it, I might have to tear it apart and redo it sometime.

naaa.

edit I was watching the Castle XXI dvd and there was a part where the cameraman was standing behind me and filmed me shooting through the wall 1 doorway.

The Micro is mine.

Nice gun. I don't see too many vert feed ones in color.
1st time I really used it as I am usually a pumper (Sniper of some sort).

I plan on being there in the spring attacking using it. I have an X-valve that I may install although the level 7 did not give me any problems.
