Yea we also have a laughing midget at my local site! Dwarf boy!Big deal Dark stranger plays like that all the time
"Local" site being Reading Municipal lavatories,and he's the members secretary,always got his mouth and hands full,enjoys his job..
Hmmm.. MontyDidn't a guy called "Monty" play for you guys...lived in Strood I think?
Bought my first marker from him, his Budd Orr Sniper II!! LOL
I used to hang out with "The Punishers" from time to time...and a couple of "Shades of Grey".
Despite my best efforts to get him out for a game he considers himself officially retired these days
I plan to keep playing as long as humanly possible. I enjoy it too much to quit - plus there's always the hope we'll pick up sponsorship from Ralgex or Sanatogen if we stick at it.Punishers & Shades of Grey were 2 of many teams we played over the years
Also remember facing off against...
Mayhem Tigers, SF Cougars, Dragon Company, Recon, Suspect Device, Rogue Troopers, and even a few games with NWC and the Predators in some of the bigger 5 & 10 mans
Back to original thread....

"You might not have met him but Doug Montgomery is getting to be a very infamous player in the Scenario world and especially the NorthWest. He is on a team out of the Seattle area and also an honorary member of our team! Last year I met him at his first scenario game (mine as well) I went down to our HQ and found a guy at the bottom of a ravine in his wheelchair.The horn sounded and I saw him hop out of his chair and belly crawl acroos the ground to a DT/hammer which is two A5's linked together with a crank. He turned to me and said bring me my chair. Stunned I rolled his chair to where he wanted it. He said thanks, that's my backup bunker! He has had MS for almost 10 years. He has severely struggled. Late last year half of his body went limp and he lost control kind of like a stroke. All the way up to his face. They gave him several therapy's to help out but they really didn't think he would improve a ton. Today with the help of his scenario brethern and some steroids he has used paintball as physical therapy and he can now walk upright and run which they hadn't ever seen happen to anyone with MS. They say it's because of his will to play paintball with the rest of us. He has a spread in one of the new SpecOps magazines!"
