FT:
I did not get to Urban Assault on the 15th (as I was having my Portrait taken by A Graduate Photographer from Portsmouth University for an exhibition in london during June, but I was sent this repot of the day by "peterboroughmike" and have posted it here for all to read.
OK over to you "Peterboroughmike"

Anyway as for the report back about this Saturday game ( 15th ); Firstly looking at the weather reports on Thursday, and there weatherman telling us we should expect cloud, no sunshine and rain, my confidence wasnt souring when i thought how it would be, i am overly cautious about using my gun in the rain, at the stage it is at now, i dont want to get it wet and ruin the internals or what have you, so i was a bit down struck by the report.
Me and my mates arrived at around 8:15, and the weather was looking good, low winds, relatively clear skies, no rain!! Fantastic i thought, todays not going to be to bad after all.
With the weather reports as they were mid week, i think it threw alot of people off the idea of playing, because it wasnt a great turn out really, probably 100 tops, apparently the numbers were almost half on the day as what was expected.
The day didn't turn out too bad, although the blue team were getting royally spanked on pretty much every game played, all bar the 2 towards the end, and the last game was strange and i am not sure how it worked.30% of the total players took arm bands off and played the attackers, and red and blue combined as one, the attackers would kill the red/blue players at which stage the dead man would remove his bands and join the attacking team, basically untill its last man standing, the last man standings colour team wins, as far as i know.
its nice to see they are trying new game types, and i think people that stayed enjoyed it, we lost alot of players including myself on the last game when it had started to rain, so over all i couldn't really tell you much on it, It might be that people were leaving because they didnt like the idea of it, how it was played, or because of the rain, but hopefully it will be tried again and you (FT)can get a good view on it yourself .

It nice to know they are trying some new games. I persionally like it when the action is indoors. The first game often turns out to be a great game even though it's only on semi auto.
Good review!
And what's this portrait then FT? You finally being added to the Tate Gallery?
actualy it's not the Tate it's the OLD BREWERY - and I thought it was quite the correct place for a portrait of Old FT :-)
