Pegasus Bridge 2013
June 5th 1944 it’s late into the night. In the skies over France, one force compiled of elements of the Glider Pilot Regiment, B and D Companies, 2nd Battalion, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry, and a platoon of B Company, Royal Engineers embark on a journey to start their war. There primary goal was to take two bridges, Pegasus Bridge and Horsa Bridge and hold until relived. What they had to face was a ready defense prepared by infantrymen of the Wehrmacht enforced by the elite SS troops as well as the 21st panzer division that is in the area.
For this game two teams (Allied and Axis or Blue and Red) battle for control of two bridges. Each team must own the bridge at scoring to allow armor (paintball tanks) to travel on that side of the field. At the same time teams must also hold other locations to gain secondary missions based on the objective that is being held. Some of these secondary missions can be completed easily with troops or following simple directions given out by the commander. Other missions must be completed by locating props that are scattered across the field (possibly behind enemy lines) that have been brought back to the teams HQ. All this adds to the “real feel” aspect and brings the game of paintball to a whole new level.
