It has been a
busy couple of months. The first thing you'll notice is our
re-branding from Lasertag to Laser Skirmish. Our new web
site
www.laserskirmish.com has an international player focus.
Check it out.
In May we were featured on
Channel 9's "Extra" lifestyle TV show.
Last week we were featured in
the daily metro "The Courier Mail" as part of their Travel
Section, ski report special.
In this edition of our
extreme ezine we welcome the soon to be launching New
Hampshire and Wisconsin battlefield, as well as the new
addition to Emu Gully, BOAT WARS.
See you on the battlefield,

New Battlefields
The exciting news
is that New Hampshire and Wisconsin battlefields are due to launch
this season. Check out NH's "The
Strategy Zone" web site, and WI's "Lazer
Ops" web site. Also launching soon is Emu Gully's new BOAT
WARS. Located near Ashford in NSW, Emu Gully's new adventure park
will feature Boat Wars. BattlefieldSports.com has provided
Emu Gully with the components so the crew can make their own
Gatling guns mounted on boats. Each boat will have a
driver and a gunner with the sensor mounted on the boat.

Corporate
Fun
Laser Skirmish is popular with corporate groups for team
development and fun. Some high profile groups over the last
couple of weeks include Bank-West (Thunderbird Park), Brisbane City
Council, see right, (Whites Hill College) and the Kawasaki national
conference at the Ridges Resort, Yeppoon. The flexibility
possible with Laser Skirmish was very important to these groups.

Tournament
Results
The last tournament played by the
lasertag regulars was at Whites Hill College and was played
completely in darkness. The mission details are at
http://www.lasertag.com.au/scenarios.htm
Round 1:
Nod (short for the Brotherhood of Nod) played the Aliens, GIR the
L337 terrorists and QES the SCIO. The Aliens immediately assault
the L337's and wiped them out in under 1 minute. The Aliens then
secured the bomb site. The SCIO made two attempts to overwhelm the
Aliens but were driven back. Result the nuke went off. Score 300
for Nod, 50 for QES (because the terrorists were dead) and 0 for
GIR
|
|
| |
Round 2
Saw GIR as the Aliens, QES the L337 and NOD the SCIO. This
time the aliens did not attack the L337 but instead searched for
and found the bomb and attempted to secure it. The SCIO assaulted
the Alien position and did get to the bomb. Unfortunately they
could not find a way to diffuse it and they took a lot of damage
from the radiation emitted by the bomb itself. No team managed to
achieve its objective, except the Aliens primary one of seeing the
bomb explode. Result 200 points for GIR, 0 for Nod and 0 for QES.
Round 3
GIR were the SCIO, NOD the L337 and QES the Aliens. This
time the SCIO secured the bomb site but could not find a way to
diffuse the bomb and took ghastly damage in the process (the
starbase on fireback is deadly). The Aliens rushed the SCIO
position and quickly eliminated them.
Result QES-200, NOD-0, GIR -0
|
Nod Clan, considering their tactics. |
| |
Winners
The winners overall were NOD with 300 followed by QES on 250 and
GIR on 200.
