Hellions: Red Storm Rising - CPX Sports - May 17, 2008

An Epic Paintball Event!!!

The year is 2011 and gas is $13.50 a gallon. Most of the oil fields are running dry. The Caspian Sea is still one of the last remaining large oil fields in the world but it's land locked with Russia, Iran and a handful of other small Republics. Relations with Russia have deteriorated dramatically since it had formed an alliance with Iran and assisted them in developing their nuclear capabilities in return for more oil rights in the Caspian Sea. Instability is at all time high in the Middle East and has spread to the Republics in the North Caucasus, specifically Dagestan and Chechnya. Most of these former Soviet States have made attempts to join NATO; however they have been suppressed by the Russian Military through force and assassinations of key leaders.

From Russia's point of view, NATO's eastward expansion and attempted influence over the North Caucasus since the end of the Cold War has been in clear breach of a prior agreement and a continued attempt to surround and isolate Russia. However, from NATO's vantage point, these small countries are of great strategic importance because of the BTC (Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan) pipeline. The BTC brings oil and gas from fields in the Caspian Sea to ports in the Black Sea and then to most of Europe.

The Country of Georgia, being a newly admitted member of NATO, has now become a launching ground for Clandestine Low Intensity Operations into the former Soviet States. In Chechnya and Dagestan, US Special Forces have had tremendous success and the Chechnyan Resistance Fighters have declared war on the Russian Controlled puppet government.

Both NATO and Russia have moved large forces into the area. The risk of a full-blown war is eminent.

Okay gas prices are soaring and it is digging deep into all us paintball poor fanatics pockets that are trying to make it to high profile games far from home.

Team Green Devils has a caravan heading out of Kansas City friday morning and will be returning home after the game on Saturday. So far we have 10 members and two vehicles with enough room for 3 more players if anyone is interested. Gas cost is being divided evenly between everyone going and we are looking at approximately 40.00 per person in gas expenses for 10 and even less if we get 3 more. We will also be taking our team GP medium tent so you will more than welcome to camp with us if you chose to do so. Just bring a sleeping bag and a cot. 25.00 registration fee + 60.00 for a case of paint + 40.00 in gas = 125.00 That makes for a pretty cheap game at one of the worlds top premier paintball fields.

Anyone interested can either pm here or contact me through our team website at www.teamgreendevils.org

I have been assigned to the task of executive officer of the Russian forces under Bill Bailey. I have been and will be working hard over the next week to have a good command structure in place with good communication from the top all the way down and a sound tactical gameplan for all 3 phases of the game. I still need more special roles filled so if your interested in playing the roll of a sniper as of right now I have 10 slots available and I still need 8 more medics. If your interested then please contact me via email at [email protected] or through our teams website at www.teamgreendevils.org

I should be on site by no later than 1700 hrs on Friday. I would ask that all Russian forces please check in with me at our teams campsite sometime Friday evening or early Saturday morning for a preliminary game briefing and I can get an estimated head count. NATO forces need not apply just stay where you are......you will be dealt with shortly after 1000 on Saturday, comrade.
