Two teams were formed: Jamie's Heroes, headed by the groom Jamie and The Black Cox headed by yours truly.
It seemed that the Black Cox were too strong and too strategically savvy for the wannabe heroes. We formed an impentrable line across the playing field, which the heroes had a hard time trying to bust through the blockade. When we took out each person in the opposition, we would advance up closer to the enemy flag, taking over the position that the opposition had occupied before. It worked very well, and we managed to capture the flag twice, while the heroes somehow managed to break through our blockade to get our flag once.
5 minutes from the end, most of the players on my team had run out of ammo and decided to sit out the game. It was a 7 against 2 game where myself and one of the groomsmen were solidly defending our flag at the base. The funny thing was that the groomsman had no ammo and fired blanks to ward of the opposition. I had about 30 rounds left and backed him up, I had no interest in capturing their flag and held out the heroes until the time ran out. The heroes were on the fringes of our base, but made a feeble attempt to raid it. Who knows, they probably ran out of ammo as well. Maybe I should have just walked to the enemy base and grabbed their flag while they helplessly fired blanks at me. Now that would have been classic.
After the hard game we had a BBQ and drinks. Good times.
