Want to know how to win at live gaming? Listen to the words of the captain of the current national clan war winning team, Angel. She says:

"My advice for urban is the same for bush and inflatables.

* Fitness - movement
* Know your gun
* Communicate
* Know your mission
* Know your enemy
* Know your team
* Know the field"

That's it.

14th-Mar-2008 01:43 pm - Strategy & Tactics for Live Gaming: A Walkthrough of Pin & Flank

Zev-va Calling, Over...

Pin & Flank
One of the standard problems faced in combat games like paintball, airsoft and Battlefield LIVE is how to effectively destroy an enemy force that is behind cover.

No matter how much you fire at the target, your rounds will not penetrate the cover. If you simply advance forward the enemy will pick you off as you try to cross open ground. In this situation you have, basically, two viable options.

OPTION 1: SKIRMISH LINE
One is to form a skirmish line (i.e. a line of gamers creating a battle front, usually the players are spaces about 6 feet / 3 meters apart). Then charge the opfor position hoping to rush the enemy.

OPTION 2: PIN & FLANK
The other option is to pin and flank the enemY. This option takes some team work. Generally the gamers who have sniper rifles or long range carbines in the group (this could be one person) need to lie down suppressive fire onto the enemy position. This is not expected to do significant damage but it should force the enemy to keep their heads down. So they will not be in a position to spot or at least effectively engage your forces doing the flanking.
While the enemy is under suppressive fire the flankers usually choosing the flank, left or right, with the most cover move around the enemy position. Then you hit them from the sides. You will find that most cover in combat games is one directional and therefore if you shoot at the enemy from two directions at once they will be exposed to effective fire.

The pin and flank movement is often used when players are working in pairs. One player pins and the other flanks, but can used with large formation moves as well.

Well, well, well, it is February 29th tomorrow. That ol' friend the leap year.
Tradition says that women can propose to their boyfriends on this special day. I asked Angel today if she was planning on asking Raven to marry her? She just smiled. :-)
I'll let you know if there is any news.....

Did you see me and Pete on the telly on Sunday? Battlefield Sports was featured on "Your Business Success" TV Show on Network 9. A national program it featured the finalists of the Technology Showcase Awards, part of the Smart State Awards. It was actually really exciting to see "And the winner is...Battlefield Sports" on television.



Till next time....

29th-Jan-2008 11:46 am - The Year of the Rat - Earth Rats are Good for Gaming Businesses

Courageous. Enterprising. Talented. These are the characteristics of the Chinese Rat. The rat is one of the 12 Chinese horoscopes. This year the Rat's element is earth. My sister was born in the Year of the Rat and she was told to wear red as a lucky color during 2008.

For business this sign is said to be best for high tech ventures. Businesses associated with computers and electronics are predicted to do well this year. So why not ditch the "rat race" and start your own business? There has never a better time to start your live gaming endeavor. Oh, and happy Chinese New Year!

Well 2008 is just about here. What are your new years resolutions? Is it to start a new business or start a franchise?

My new years goals are to spread the word about live gaming. My idea is to let everyone know about how cool this business opportunity is. Ok, sounds a bit corny, I know. But it is fair-dinkem (aussie for "it is true!").

Whatever your new years dreams are, good luck. And... Happy New Year!!

Last night was our staff christmas party. It was held at the Sun Fay Chinese Restaurant. Here you can see Rabbit getting the "the nature award for close encounters of the tree-kind".


The guy has a scar on his chin from a twig, and one on his forehead because he walked into a tree that he didn't see. I got the Paparazzi Award, for obvious reasons. Moses got the "school girl" award, for giggling silly when he got his own personal gaming gun, a commando. Wildcat who got the "navigator award" for guiding the truck back from our mt crosby battlefield to our HQ in Coopers Plains, via the Brisbane Airport.

But my favorite was Plan's award - the "Collateral Damage" Award - for sacrificing beginners by yelling "charge!" :-)

As we do every year here at Battlefield LIVE we put on a huge Halloween party. This is the one time in the calendar that gamers swap their fatigues, camo and scrim for fancy dress. It is a big favorite with our American contingent, Shaun James Browne and Ken Dubay. This year even the staff got in on the act, with a Canadian Mountie and a Sheriff running the show.
Gamers got creative, Angel dressed up as a Bride and played in a full length white ensemble.


My favorite, though, is the matching Father and Son draculas, ie Zoolander and Hades.

For more of a wrap check out the thread on the Battlefield LIVE forum. http://forum.battlefieldlive.com
