This is one of the things that gets me in trouble most often - I run out into the middle of things, get pinned down, then taken out. For instance this afternoon... I got impatient and ran down into a "no man's land" area to try to take out some of the other team. However, their sniper located me and began to maneuver into position. After beginning to engage him, I was fired on by a couple of guys with AEG's. I had no good cover, and they were firing on me from two different directions. Needless to say, I was the one who got taken out! Oh well, hopefully I'll do better next time!

Angles. That's often what gets me killed too. When you go out alone you lose angles/fire-lanes in your favor. Not to say you can't still go deep by yourself, but watch out for the other team's fire-lanes respective to your position.
Great moment: 4 guys in 4min...or less =)

Hunter-Killer: Hunters hunted =)
One of my best moments in airsoft. I let the enemy pass me, thus out-flanking them. Came in on their side, dropped to the ground to avoid fire (2x), then took out one guy from behind a stump, then the next fellow as he came abound the same stump. I heard a sniper's round hit within 12in of my head so I moved to regroup with my central defences. In-rout I stumbled onto another Hunter. He was hard to hit lying prone and over a small ridge, but I still placed a shot before he did. =)
Then, last but not least, I stood up from behind a stump, turned, and came face to face with the sniper 30ft away. I had and AEG. =)
I finnaly died whilst hunting the last hunter. Got shot from 5ft away while searching a hill-side of brambles and bushes. Oh well, I still got 4 of the 5. =)
(P.S. Major high-fives to the rest of my team for maintaining positions and working together so well...and also to the powerhouse who finaly brought me down =)
