Greetings from the Federation's SPPLAT Special Ops.
I am here representing Admiral Kirk's command staff and Special Ops unit in the forthcoming engagement at Challenge Park Xtreme on Aug. 31.
Please know that the Admiral's second-in-command, Patrick "Pacman" McKinnon, sends his greetings and well-wishes for a safe journey to our rendezvous point. All commissioned Federation officers and Special Ops unit members are to report to Pacman at the MXS Command Center upon their arrival, where they will be briefed and given their assignments.
Every consideration has been given to enlist only the best personnel and equipment for this unprecedented operation. I need not explain the dangers we will be facing as we engage the Borg and Klingons.
The Admiral will be leading the finest gathering of veteran paintball scenario players in the known universe, and working closely with the Ops unit, all of whom are hand-picked for this assignment. All non-commissioned personnel will be led into battle by these seasoned players. Weapons and tactics instructions will be available for new recruits at the rendezvous point prior to the operation by the experienced instructors from the BustNBalls organization.
Our objectives will be to 1) secure the artifacts from the planet's surface; 2) negotiate in good faith with the alien entity and offer Federation alliance; 3) prevent the Borg and Klingons from acquiring domination in this sector.
Intelligence reports have indicated there may be a Borg operative infiltrated into the Klingon command staff. We can assume her objective is to quickly assimilate this rather "green" Klingon crew (led by a new officer named "Mancow") in the hope of having the two forces united to stop the Federation objectives. We believe it will be just a matter of time before the Klingons self-destruct or mutiny.
Be advised the two Klingons captured during the recent raid on Sirus B were successfully "re-educated" through our Psy Ops program and returned to Sirus B for rescue by their own forces. Their rank in Mancow's command structure, and their knowledge of the vast array of communication apparatus utilized at the Klingon command center, will certainly be the undoing of the Klingon effort to steal the alien entity's technology.
The Borg commander, "Tom K," is a vicious and clever entity with a crew of well-armed, but obsolete, zealots. His command center has been placed strategically between the Federation and Klingon camps.
Due to the absolute necessity this operation be successful against the Borg, the Special Ops unit has called into service The One, codenamed "Ringer," who will determine assignments of the Ops. Ringer has advised the Federation that two of his Ops have successfully infiltrated the Borg command structure - utilizing new non-technological cloaking capabilities - and have successfully intercepted Borg transmissions outlining details for assimilation of the alien entity. Ops unit personnel are now focused on maintaining their cover until given the order to "pull the plug."
Game on!

Update for the Star Trek / Shatner event at CPX August 31st, 2002
Just got back in from Chicago, after having a great meeting with Forest and Justin Brown of CPX, Tom Kaye of Airgun Designs, JJ Brookshire of SPPLAT, and the Captain himself, William Shatner. Everything went smoothly and the event is a "go" with a lot of interesting twists. The Captain is pumped up and ready to lead the Federation to a sound victory!
The event will start on Wednesday and continue through Sunday, all included in the SPPLAT entry fee. Open play on all fields Wed./Thur./Fri. Actual event will be Saturday from around 9 a.m. till 5 p.m.; exact times TBA. Tank battle for the $1,000 will commence on Sunday.
Paint will be $60 per case.
The Federation command staff has been finalized: Field commanders are: Kerry "Viper" Rosenberry of Viper Enterprises; Mike "Blue" Hanse of EMR; Joe Stayback from Sherwood Forest and Thunderstruck fame; Kevin "Joker" Wilkes from Team Joint Fury, and Matthew Zeyn from the Doom Troopers will coordinate base security. Diane "Mother" Howe and Bobby "Darkman" Gogolin are Special Ops. I will be Shatner's XO.
Each of the four Field Commanders & Base Security will have 200 troops. Four Squad Leaders need be assigned under each Field Commander. Squad Leaders need to: Be a paintball stud; be able to follow orders & improvise on the fly; handle a group of 50 players; be on the field for the entire game; lead from the front; have a decent trigger finger; have a stong desire to shoot hundreds of Borg and Klingon scum and have already signed up for the event (or do so now) on the Federation team.
Five Medic positions need to be filled by very special folks willing to sacrifice. Contact Pacman for one of these five spots; I'll fill you in at that point.
There should be many different movie-type celebrities showing up to play the game. Don't be surprised by whom you see at the event or find playing next to you during the game.
Xtreme Trade Show: Big tent with 50 sponsors showing off their paintball wares. Will be open from Wednesday till Sunday, servicing all your paintball needs.
Atomic Ordnance Grenades are the only approved grenade for the venue = Non-Staining!!!
Semi-Auto only; 280 FPS! Leave the zips, turbos, full-autos at home. Select-fire lockouts & tourney caps a must; ie, caught shooting full-auto is a Highway 80 Violation (in simplest terms, a Highway 80 Violation is the major highway you will travel when leaving the event early for shooting full-auto!)
A two-hour TV special: Shatner announced that a movie-style film crew will be on hand to record the entire game, which will be turned into a TV show! Free HI-8 and Digital 8 media will be available for all persons who wish to film the event, then drop off their media for inclusion in the movie. TV credit will be given! You still have to be a signed up as a player to video the event. All participants will be signing Model Releases
Star Trek Convention @ Empress Casino: In conjunction with the event, there is planned a Star Trek Convention to be held at the Empress Casino across the river (just a couple of miles away). All Federation team players should buy their event paint before going to the casino/Star Trek convention. All Borg and Klingon players are urged to go to the casino before buying event paint.
Parking / Shuttle Service: With 3,000 players, parking will be an issue day of the event. Three persons per car to park on-site; less than 3 and you will be routed to an outlying parking lot and shuttled to the field. Plan accordingly, folks. Car Pool!!!!
My private meeting with Shatner was short and sweet. The information from the meeting was shared with the Federation field commanders and they will only share that information with signed up loyal troops. (Yeah we got the plan happening. It will suck to be Borg or Klingon)
Signing up for one team and playing for another will result in your person being expelled/removed from the premises and loss of event jersey from the event with no-refunds. A Hwy 80 violation! (Sorry guys. You'll have to earn that commander elimination on Shatner; it will not be given to you; you won't be able to buy it!)
And let's not forget: all profits from this event is to benefit the AHEAD WITH HORSES Charity!
For more information or to sign up for this event, go to www.spplat.com
This event is going to be the biggest ever held in paintball and will easily blow anything previous out of the water. Come be a part of paintball history in the making!

News from Black Cat and the Klingons:

Scenario Director
Okay folks! Many of you may have heard rumor that I will be playing in this game. I am officially announcing it here on our forums that this is indeed the case! JJ Brookshire has requested that I play general for Mancow, a national Disc Jockey. We will be playing the Klions in this Star Trek based scenario game.
Our opposition will be...none other than William "Capt. James T. Kirk" Shatner of the Enterprise. Playing field generals for him will be Patrick "Pacman" McKinnon, Kerry "Viper" Rosenburg, Diane "Mother" McKinnon and Mike "Blue" Hanse from EMT Paintball Park.
The third army, the Borg, will be generaled by Tom Kaye, President of Airgun Designs with Wayne Dollack as his XO. Wayne will be bringing some of his regulars to assist them in their meesly effort to win! hahahahaha
Kitty and I will both be playing a commanding role in this game.
We would like to form a small contingouncy of our own to take to the game to help lead us to victory! We will be outfitting those people who sign up with us with BlackCat T-shirts to play in so we can let them all know who it was that dooped them. We will also be outfitting many with our own personal radios that have private frequencies outside the "normal" UHF and VHF band. The radios will be our new referee radios that have a 5 watt output with repeater capabilities.
JJ has already authorized the use of our production trailer as central command. (Poor JJ. I guess maybe he should have checked it out before okaying it! hahahaha)
This game may prove to be fun for all of us!
I know that the price of the game ($150) is high...but...for those who can make it we are sure to have fun.
Would love to run and gun with all of our great players for a change.
