completing missions and dividing red team forces . Each side continued relentless campaigns to gain territory and points all day , though Di Inferi seemed to take total control of Saturday ’ s battle , their victory wasn ’ t as absolute as everyone assumed . Sunday ’ s battle loomed and with it came the outright savagery of the Crusade .
Scenario paintball provides opportunities for players to come out of their shell , or rather into their shell . Living Legends had provided guidelines for players to legally guide and operate their own walking tank . This can be a key strategy for teams , it can provide some land clearing opportunities for your team and hopefully aid in gaining some much-needed territory . The opinions on these “ tanks ” tends to vary , usually very heavily swayed on whether or not you are on the business end of the tank . The opinions also seem to sway due to how effective the tank truly is , well Living Legends 13 had one of those truly effective walking tanks . John “ Preacher ” Vance , a gentleman who is widely sought after if you need something accomplished , donned his walking tank for the Crusade and proceeded to batter the red team all weekend . His skills were so spectacular that there was heavy opposition against him . The man followed every rule and guideline that he was given , even following the directives of the ref staff after being hit with a rocket , and still coerced Di Inferi warriors into submission . Preacher showed just how effective a player can be when they familiarize themselves with the rules and use them to their advantage brilliantly . The abilities and knowledge that Preacher utilizes has more than earned him a legendary status .
