NLC Urban Warfare: Cyberjaya Paintball

There was nothing interesting to look forward to this week except for Deen's engagement ceremony and today's paintball session with the NLC lads. There was abit of commotion last night when we found out there the paintball park in Bangi was ruined due to a thunderstorm the evening before. Thanks to the quick action by some of the NLC gang, they managed to get us a place at the Cyberjaya Paintball Park - the training ground of RABAQ, a Division 3 team.  

I was the first to arrive amongst the NLC gang and to my very surprised I bumped in to Rabaq. The very last bunch of people I wanted meet that day. I really wished not to be judged today. 


The last NLC member arrived and quickly we changed, collected payments, set up teams and did what other paintball teams would do before the game- a photoshoot session. 




So what do you get when you give 19 inexperienced paintball players a marker each and you let them loose, running around a field filled with old oil barrel and wooden industrial pallets as protective bunker under the hot blazing sun? 

CHAOS.






We started off with a league system, which didn't worked out well for our team despite having a one man advantage, wrapping it up with a 9vs9 capture the flag death match, which also did not went well after the flag suddenly went missing.


The boys seemed to have enjoyed themselves and are planning to make this as a monthly event. 

Below are the things that I've learned today:
1. Being the only one in a full paintball suit makes you an easy target. 
2. Some of them are Rec Ball regulars; speed is what they don't have.
3. It was quite hard to execute a planned attack against guerilla warfare formation.
4. Warm 100plus sucks.
