Santa vs Grinch 2011

It's going down December 18th at Airsports Paintball, Ludlow MA. Nothing like slinging paint in a COLD Arsed Sunday Morning. So those with a bit of Internal Fortitude and brass Cojones is welcome to join us for some fine New England Winter 'ball

After Action Report: Operation Dawn of the Dead

     Dawn of the Dead, was a great sucess. BlackCell team members evilelvis, xXx, QueenB, LilMan and Shark attended. We where placed in the Hordes of the undead and we hit the field gunning. The weather was perfect cool and sunny. AirSports paintball's BYOP and free self serve airfills made this a inexpensive and enjoyable event as usual. We hit the field hard sending Lil Man and evilelvis' nephew quickly as a fast recon force colecting the props the missions required while we Slug it out with the remains of Humanity across the Casino, Village and the paint burner "speedball alley". Game was pretty close only to have the fate of the Undead sealed in the last Mission where the humans where able to make an Airdrop and score enough points to just edge out the Hordes of the Undead. xXx perfected his Pistol elimination skills with two Pistol point surrenders and QueenB got her best side shot out. evilelvis managed to shoot the same 4 guys 3 times in the row bearly ten feet from the last position I ambushed them at and of course xXx killed himself with his own grenade.

    

Dawn of the Dead 3 the scenario game that won't die...

A freak Halloween Nor'easter wasn't able to stop this 8 hour game. Now with the region crawling back to life BlackCell Paintball most hardcore players are taking on the storm ravaged field to battle either the hordes of the Undead or the last Humans. Looks like xXx, Queen B, lil'man, Shark and evilelvis will represent the cell. Stay tuned for after action reports.

Weltober!

It's that time of the year again for Fall Paintball. After the humid- hot Correy Lind game it's going to be nice to play in the cool Fog-free fall weather. Next up is the Dawn of the Dead 3 game at Airsports. Looking forward to a nice turn out. Specially looking forward to lighting people up with the Phenom. Elite Paintball is closing down next week leaving the area with 2 paintball shops Point Blank and the Paintball King. They are having a closing sale Thursday-till Saturday. So snag up some swag before they are gone for ever. I want to start implementing small unit tactics and formations now that we have worked on our individual skills through the year. Clean your damned guns, oil them and hope you been rotating your paint or have fresh paint ready. It's going to be a blast.

Zombie Land, Oct 30th 2011

Our next deployment is Oct 30th at our defacto Home Base, Airsports Paintball in Ludlow Ma. So let's make sure someone school's Spartan on land navigation since I-90 east exit 6, take a right and wait till you see the Airsports PB sign, is too complicated. Maybe show him the Navigation App on his fancy Driod phone. This game is BYOP so we can burn all the paint we had left over from all the events this year. I expect a full showing well haze the boots that don't show up. Think xXX is dressing up like a Zombie Ballerina. So should be fun.

Hunt for Lost Vegas 2010

Great event, Blackcell operatives, evilelvis, Happy Feet, xXx, Murphy and Shark hit the field. Gunning for a great cause we engaged in many many paint heavy slug outs. Great reffing and a great event made for an awesome day of paintball. Kudos to the staff at airsports for a great Sunday of paintball.

Looks like QueenB was running swimming and doing everything but shooting people. 5poppa was MIA and of course Spartan was abducted by aliens and probed in every orifice about twenty times or so we hear. Pics and a game after action report coming soon!

Phyton/iFit kit the field trial results.

So I finally got to field test the phyton/iFit kit. While using crap heat formula 13 paint I was able to underbore the paint by two inserts. Allowing me to use the smallest sizer with no breaks and a small spread at Max range.

I was able to shoot from the hill infront if the castle to the back row woodfence bunker house. This also helped me to get better efficiency out my 72/3G tank. So in conclusion it's a sound investment. The phyton kit cones with 4 dozers while the techT kit comes with 6 or 9 inserts. The better the fit the more accurate the ball is going to be. For it's simplicity and value I recommend the phyton/iFit kit

After action report, Corey Lind memorial game

BlackCell paintball rolled into Camelot Paintball for the Corey Lind memorial game. BlackCell operatives evilelvis, 5poppa, queenB, lil man, XxX, happy feet, Murphy and Spartan showed up. We hit the field at ten and where split into two squads with sone walk on players. Game was attack and defend the castle. Murphy dominated and XxX was taking a nap.

More teams rolled in and the battle got good after that. Several good battles XxX found his inner ninja and got 4 battle tags. QueenB got knee capped by her son. Lil man was given a gun in behalf of all the BlackCell crew for his birthday. I think Freddy chronoed his Slingshot at 145fps.

Murphy's Law of paintball...

There shall be many many neck shots...

At our last game our resident Team Squid Murphy showed his uncanny talent for painful neck shots. He started with Happy Feet and finished with some poor walk on. He also dominated on the defense. Successfully defending the castle against a greater number of attackers in the first game of the day. It's good to see the Old Breed take center stage.

In related team news we still don't know where XxX's gat is.

next deployment, Camelot Paintball Chicopee MA. Correy Lind Memorial Game

Ok after taking June off I hope your trigger fingers are itchy. We're hitting a new field and we have a rep to build and uphold. BlackCell make sure that your equipment is squared away. Make sure that you clean your markers and keep them oiled. If you need tech help you can hit me up on Facebook.

QueenB and Lil'man hit me up if you need equipment or are you guys planing on renting.

Spartan congrats on upgrading to the Phenom.

SitRep: SNAFU

Well we had to cancel the BlackDiamond VS the World game due to my home being destroyed by the Tornado of June 1st. I would like to personally thank all the BlackCell members who stepped up with help and offers of help. You guys are awesome. My gear is safe and I'll be ready for the July game. See you on the filed.

New Blood, same warrior spirit...

BlackCell paintball would like to welcome our newest members. Shark, Carrot Top, QueenB and lil'man (code name pending) to our ranks. You all played some stand up paintball last game. Now after getting hazed at the next event you will be full fledged killers.

Tombstone After Action Report

Tombstone was a great success I played the role of Johnny Ringo and our own Murphy ended laying down the law as the Sherriff. We took the field in a sunny great day. Temperatures where about mid 70's a perfect day for paintball. BlackCell took the field with all members, Spartan, Murphy, HappyFeet, Bad Mojo, xXx, 5poppa and myself along with new BlackCell recruits CarrotTop and Shark. Also along with us was a good friend and health nut Betty and her son Armando "Lil Man".

From the get go our side with had 24 players (counting 4 who had never played before) took on the Lawdags and their 20 players. From the get go BlackCell along with local teams the Creed and Psycho Soldiers started to roll through missions collecting all the gold from the mines as other Game artifacts stashing them in our HQ. Some great fire fights and some great fire and manuever lead to us sweeping the field at Airsports a couple of times. Sans the noon shoot out where the Red leadership where put in the open while the Law Dogs had plenty of cover for a one on one western shootout.

Our own Murphy used those Navy skills to grill us some great Kielbasas and Beef Franks and after resting and hydrating and loading and gasing up BlackCell and guests took on the field. But in the end not even that could hold back the Red Swarm and the Cowboys took victory at Tombstone. Our team guests Armando "lil Man" took game MVP and his mother Betty took the Sportsmanship Award. After Tombstone our size grew to ten players. So far it's looking to be a great season.

Only the Good Die Young...

Geardo: BlackCell Paintball recommends Psyworx's pro-connect III

The Psyworxs ProConnect III is the only remote line fitting that BlackCell paintball uses. There are a few variants out there in the market. But the finish, spare o ring kit, ease of use and maintenance and the support that Psyworx's has for woodsball & MILSIM paintball has made it the only choice for out remote line needs. Check them out at your favorite local retailer. If they don't carry it demand it over the other variants.

Operation: Tombstone 2011

Geardo; Tachyon OPS, Paintball Gun/Helmet cam system.

As you know I run a Tachyon XC helmet cam. Not only can I take pictures or videos with iut. I found it to be a good tool for me to review field time and see besides shooting the breeze what I did right and more important what I did wrong. With the Tachyon XC cams out of production Tachyon revealed their new line of micro cams the new Tachyon OPS line. They are smaller than my cam but they are not water proof. As I can go diving with my cam these can not. But since we are not in an amphibious paintball team that's not much of a point.

These new cameras are priced at $90 for the standard VGA version. (See my facebook videos for video quality) and the HD model for $140. Really cheap as the other helmet cameras in the market are at about $200 plus range.

BlackCell is Operational

  What started with a call from a Marine Buddy. He wanted to try paint ball. I was taking my daughter to a game for my Birthday and I said what the heck. So me 5poppa, Dash and her friend Jenn hit airsports paint ball. We played the Hunt for Lost Vegas 6hour scenario game. It drizzled the whole day. We were wet, tired and we had a blast. A few days later 5poppa went looking for a gun of his own and made a few local shops Pointblank Paint ball very happy after dropping a few hundred bucks in Swag. Thou he refuses to get any new Cammies. he wears his busted ass old Marine Corps "cammies".
 
   We then played our second game at airsports, Red Dawn 09 based on the 80's movie. This time we where ready to hit the ground running. We played for the white side, we where out numbered most of the game but as a whole we had a blast and we all walked away with out own positive experiences.

   After the long winter I wanted to get back into the swing of paint ball. After having to cancel the West Point Spring Game, I ended taking a squad of noobs from work to the field. Loaning out some of my Arsenal except for xXx who brought a Project Salvo for the occasion. Bad Mojo brought a handful of Spyders that sucked, he ended up using my Phenom for the last chapter while I went in Pistolero. Murphy's trusty Alpha Black had a valve leak. He ended up using my Alpha Black. The game was a success and even xXx got a MVP for our side and Bad Mojo got a sportsmanship award.

Here is Murphy on the Perimeter.

Boston Massacre, Revolutionary War style Warfare

With the Addition of Spartan. Our Squad is ready and eager to take to the field. We are BlackCell, and we're the Gun Crew ready to bring the paint. 

Hit the Deck

Here is our first web presence. It's still under construction but should be ready by the end of the week.
