    I can answer some of that...

    "tanks, laws, or granade launchers"

    I can't tell you about tanks and EMR, but the Rules do allow them.

    There are now two types of LAWS the old kind and the new kind. The old ones shot grenades, mortars or such, and multiple paintball lanchers etc.

    Some of those were banned because they could take off a mask. I am not sure on multiple paintball but I think the answer is no go.

    The new LAWS are ones designed to shoot the nerf footballs with fins. ***edit*** Even at 20ft it will NOT knock a mask loose.

    Of course mines are okay, hand thrown grenages are okay. Even smoke is okay, I used lots last game. MXS does not allow lasers but Viper does. Of course, night visions, thermal, qbeams and such are allowed.

    Just send PACMAN an email if you have a question still.

      Hmmm.

      I am in with Patron if I get a Fighting Orukai Jersey, especilly one that says Oruck on the back I am totally in. But I have a question, is Tom playing Sauron or Saudumon? Becuase Sauron is not in any of the battles in The Two Towers, so does that mean that Tom is just gonna stand above the battles and look wicked tough and menacing?


      Just Curious.

        LOL... Yep. Tom just kind of hangs back and watches everything go down with the all seeing anti-chop eye.

          Decisions....

          Do I go to this or the AO Megameet?

          My wife won't let me go to 2 in a row. Which should I attend?

            Darkstorm you crack me up. It is a 10hr drive and I am playing a scenario with MXS in Indiana at the start of the month but I will try to be there. This is not to early to start planning trust me.

                Some things to add.

                First, it IS Twin Towers. Not TWO Towers. Why? Copyright! Legal issue. Which is why it's also the first game being "Ring of the Fellowship" and the last game being "The King Returns." Just reworded slightly to save their arse, basically.

                Second, Tom will not only just be playing (I assume he's playing, it is Tom afterall). But actually be in the role of Sauron the Deceiver. The Dark Lord himself. Congrats, seems like I know who my boss is now.
                (side note: Glad to see you jumping head first into the scenario/big game/ recball area of paintball there Tom. I also hope you don't have to abandon tournaments that much to accomidate.)

                Third, the desire of your own Uruk-Hai jersey with your name on the back..... close. I am actually constructing "armor" vests for the Uruk-Hai to wear. Of course this means severl dozen which gets expensive. Right now, I'm thinking of a 'first come/serve' instead. Making a max of 50. Materials ain't cheap, not to mention all the time/labor I put in to making each one.

                Fourth, for the rockets. Mortars are actually allowed. However those TM203 style you might want to call. A mortar shooting a handfull of paintballs is all right in EMR guidelines. Shooting grenades with them, that's a no no. There actually has been a time where the grenade launced ripped somebody's mask right off as it crashed down on him.
                It's not a ruin-fun or sponsor a "legal" item that you can buy right conveniently at the proshop. Especially since they don't have any! But it's a safety issue, EMR has been well known as one of the safest and well run fields in this country, and it plans to stay that way for another season.

                I'll add the 5th in a little. Have to go find it.

                  First come first serve eh? Well, if I can't nab one of those I'll just have go as a berserker. I'll paint the white hand on my mask and wear nothing but a loin cloth and my pod harness........

                  J/K............... Maybe

                      Rules

                      For those of you wondering what is legal and what's not, read over the rules: http://www.scenariopaintball.com/rules/

                      If you have any questions, I'd ask on MXS's board, or e-mail them directly as said above-

                      Hope to see a bunch of you AGD'ers at T/T, this time I get to shoot with ya instead of at ya (ShatnerBall).

                        Errr, not to get too geeky here, but the Uruk-Hai are Saruman's, not Sauron's, peeps. So if yer an AO'er, and you want to play with/for Tom, and MXS sticks to the books/movies, you can't be an Uruk-Hai. But hey, live and let live.

                        Just had a thought: if Tom's Sauron, then who's going to be the Nazgul... hmmmmm.

                          Don't worry, I've read all the books. I know that Saruman made a hybrid creation of Orcs and Gondor men called the Uruk-Hai. But he did it in the fact that Saruman is nothing but Sauron's puppet. Creating them for the army of Mordor.

                          You can't get too geeky around Scenario players. You'll be surprised at how intelligent some of these people are and the number of books they've read.

                          For the Nazgul, it'll be mostly the same people as last year. But they're recruiting a couple other new people to the group. Not sure who.

                                Hello All,
                                This is Rich, Captain of RTD Paintball Club and I will be Comannding the side of the Fellowship againt the Evil foes at the MXS/EMR game in May.

                                1st (and this always the 1st thing) to CoFFey (NiTrO)
                                NO MEMBER OF RTD WIPES !!!!!
                                No question, no excuse. Not only do we not tolerate it among ourselves but it is not acceptable by anyone. As far as I and the members of RTD are concerned, anyone wiping has no colored tape. I will open fire on anyone cheating regardless of which side they may be taped for. They are an open target until they leave the field.

                                2nd- (a little more lighthearted)
                                To Psychomag: Ah excuse me DG, but I expect to see you there taped for RTD and smiling. This will be the largest gathering of RTD members ever assembled at one event. I expect over 120 RTD members at this game and I am not passing up the photo opportunity this affords.

                                PLayers have already registered from the state of Washington, Az., CO., TX., Ohio, Fl., Both Carolinas, Rhode Island, MI., as well as the more local states.

                                There will be players there who played in the very first ever scenario game and players attending their 1st scenario game. There will be players who have been playing paintball for so long, that when they started.. they had to go into the woods and throw colored stones at each other. :-)
                                (ya see it's a joke, :-) ..there weren't actual paintballs back then so they had to.... oh nevermind. :-) )

                                This game is going to be a BLAST!!!! The only ones who won't enjoy this game are the players who can't be there.

                                ALL DAY Saturday (noon to 6 pm)
                                ALL NIGHT (8 pm til 4 am) and
                                most of Sunday (8 am til 2 pm).

                                Don't miss this event!!!!!

                                Rich RTD
