team. I was only carrying a Tipx pistol and 5 mags. At breakout we followed the main force flanking around the back side of the hill going up to Darkwoods Fort. As we approached the hill players were lit up by bright flashlights carried by the Renegade team defenders. Our General Socks ordered everyone to target flashlight carriers first. We took them out in short order and proceeded to mount and crest the hill assaulting the fort from 2 sides. I led my team up the hill sticking to the darkest patches and we proceeded to trade fire with the Renegades. It wasn’t long before hands were up and 136 paintball magazine dead players walking out on both sides. We managed to take out their outer perimeter in the first 15 minutes and then came the assault on the fort itself. During the initial assault Gearheadz split into 2 teams and quickly lost track of each other. I led a heavy charge of 10-15 players trying to hit one of the bunkers closer to the fort, not realizing there was a player shooting out of a tiny gap in the brush, we were all eliminated, myself barely 2 ft from the front of the bunker. I headed out to our DMZ battle base to respawn and then met up with several other Gearheadz players assaulting from that side.
