Biggest Scenario Game of the Year

Tuesday May 22, 2007
The biggest scenario paintball game of the year is fast approaching and it's time to make your plans to go. Oklahoma D-Day reenacts the June 1944 Allied invasion of Normandy and will take place from June 4-10 near Wyandotte, Oklahoma (directions) with the reenactment of the actual invasion on Saturday, June 9, 2007. The official Oklahoma D-Day site reports:
Oklahoma D-Day is not your typical "Big Game" where hundreds or even a thousand paintball players show up and attack one specific objective or play capture the flag. With 3,500 to 4,000 players that come to this event annually, it would be un-controllable mass chaos. Rather, like the actual Invasion of Normandy, several battles unfold across the field throughout the day. Sides are awarded points for holding or taking critical objectives at key times.
If you've never attended a giant scenario game or you're always looking for something bigger and better, this well-organized event will be well worth your time. Learn what you need to take to a scenario game.

For those who failed to attend this event, the victory went to the Allies.
That means that after 10 years the score is now tied 5 all. Look for
08 to be fought even harder and if
