The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

This is a video I edited togeather back in 2002.

One of the camera "men" was a total d!ps#!^ and thought it would be cool to add some sort of machine gun recoild effect to the video.

The dude watched WAY too much MTV I guess.

Anyhoo, Enjoy!

And FYI, I'm the guy in Black tac gear with the SG-1 patch on his shoulder. :)

I'm also the guy dropping dead after getting shot by the M249 wielding "dead" guy at the end of the video. :)

Wow, 54 views and not so much as a "You're a hack, bugger off" or "Amazing work, let me send you my first born" or anything. :)

Bonus "Bug Points" to Scareb. ;)

Damn, here I was hoping for it to be shot like "heat"!! ;) Still, an interesting and entertaining watch.

I have one questions for you. WHERE is that paintball/airsoft field, and why haven't you shared something THAT cool with the legacy boards before? And if you have, well, I forgive you. ;)

I ask because it's very cool, and I'd love to find out what it's all about.

Finally got a chance to sit and watch it - that is ALL kinds of awesome.

Is that like a small run down town sectioned off for airsoft and paintball?
Where is this magical place?

Really great teamwork and realism.
I didnt see or hear anyone argue they weren't really dead.

That is just one of the many themed fields located at Challenge Park Xtreme in Joliet, IL.

It's a MULTI-MILLION dollar facility funded in no small part by Brass Eagle I believe.

There are several themed fields.

The city (who's name escapes me at the moment...)

There's a "Wastelands" field that's modeled on a bombed out city, either WWII or Futuristic depending on your point of view.

There's a "Jungle of Doom" field with a Mayan/Aztek style temple in the center and big stone heads at each starting point.

There's a Wild West stockaid fort themed field and one Mad Max influenced field with 30-40 cars parked on it.

Our Minnesota club was the first airsoft group to be invited there, that first weekend in 2002 and it was a real blast. It was also the fighting premier of my airsoft Pulse Rifle, which I used almost exclusively that whole weekend, except for the "Heat" game where we "Law Enforcement types" were restricted to using gas guns only.

Man I miss skirmishing. :(
