made up of Alpha Dogs and Bounty Hunters ran the tunnels and stopped the bugs from getting at least two of their missions completed. FINAL BATTLE Going into the final battle, the Arachnids were still ahead, but were going to have to defend key objectives and protect the Brain Bug. Right on signal the troopers pushed to gain control of the majority of the objectives and within just a few minutes of the start of the battle were able to capture the Brain Bug. As the battle raged, the bugs pushed and the troopers lost ground. As the minutes started counting down, the troopers formed back up and in the last 5 minutes pushed the Bugs out of the objectives for the final points, but would this be enough to put the Roughnecks over the top for points and the game or not? Because of the closeness of the game, the points were tallied up three times by Ben Torricelli and Scott Bolden. In the end the Arachnids had 4,100 points and the Roughnecks had 3,800 points. So Klendathu was safe from the Mobile Infantry for the time being, but they lost their Brain Bug. Will the troopers be back to finish the job they started or will this be the end of the battle between the Arachnids and the United Citizen Federation? Only one person knows that answer, and he is not talking (Ben Torricelli). For more information on other games, please see www.bearclawpaintball.net or www.mppgames.com. HELPING OTHERS As a side note to the game, Bear Claw Paintball, MPP, and other paintball players are helping to raise money for the family of Robert ‘Milkshake’ McEntyre. Milkshake was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in his kidneys. Robert is one of the greatest players known to paintball in the South. He helped introduce players to paintball, helped to teach to play with honor, and helped others with fundraisers. You would know Robert by the cow costume he wore to play paintball. Whereever you saw white with black spots, that was Robert. At this game, Bear Claw and MPP had patches made up for Project Milkshake to sell to raise money for Robert’s family. The starting price for the patches was $5 and people actually paid more to help Robert out. During the prize drawing at the end of the game, Green Hat from Black Karma won a the new marker from Tippmann and immediately started an auction for the marker with the money going to Project Milkshake.
