RE: THE TRIDENT TROPHY COMPETITION - PoorOldSpike - 03-15-2008

COMBAT FOOTAGE (mixed sector) - Stndrtnfhr's schreck guy picks off my Firefly leader

The guy already fired and scored a non-lethal penetration, then took a hail of return fire (note craters and tracer), but he calmly hacked it then popped up and loosed off this fatal second shot..

Just out of curiousity...will you be having another tournament once this one wraps up?

Very probably..:)
Trident ends March 31st so after a brief period of R & R for us all, the next one should begin around mid-April..:)
I'm toying with other ideas instead of the Malitz/ Trident format just for a change, such as a team competition of some sort maybe, but whatever it is, it'll be fast-moving, 6 weeks length at the most..:)

My tourneys always attract the fastest players in the world, 22 out of 26 Trident games have been completed in just 4 weeks, that's pretty good going, and there's still 2 weeks left to the finish deadline..:)

And just as praiseworthy are the players who entered despite having heavy real-life commitments and make valiant efforts to beat the deadline..:)

A special mention too for Jawsconan who signed up for Trident only TODAY but is confident he can beat the deadline with just 2 weeks to go..:)

Yup, a speedy mindset is good to have -
Gen Ulysses S. Grant -"The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is, get at him as soon as you can, strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving"

Combat Footage - Jawsconan blows up a Stuart

My Stuarts hooked deep into the enemy rear and killed this Stug with side shots, but before I could extricate them this one went up in flames after a whooshy sound from somewhere..

As the game goes into overtime, my Shermans are caught in the middle like nuts in a nutcracker..
