HBN Puts HBO in Diapers | mrsmiley { June 29, 2005 }
On Thursday night of last week, HBN Clan brought their A game against KPs HBO Spartans. We won all three of our matches after playing a long game of cat and mouse. Both teams didnt know what to expect of each other but when the moment was right, we struck. Read on for a re-cap of the night's games.
Match 1
Halobabies had the first pick of gametype for the evening and we selected multi-flag ctf on Containment. This game had one of the strangest starts to any clan match that Ive ever seen. Super Robot 7 and I were extremely nervous, SpraynPray was away eating pizza for the first 10 minutes and yours truly forgot to close the room. When everybody got back on the same page, we began to roll. Our clan learned real quickly to avoid KPs well-timed sniper shots and Retsamolahs ground game. We displayed true teamwork by attacking there base in groups of 3s or 4s while the rest played lock-down defense. Nrek and Super got the flag out of the base, Gruntsbane kept a cool composure in the tank while I ran into the trench with the flag screaming and yelling in excitement. Super Robot had 38 kills and Gruntsbane had 27 as Halobabies rolled 2-0 in game 1.

Match 2
This time it was Hbos turn to pick the gametype in which they carefully choose oddball on headlong. We had no prior experience of this gametype on headlong but we cleaned up quite nicely. The match started and both teams quickly met up on the turf below the I-beam. Hbo won that skirmish and took the ball back into the defense base. While their whole team went for the oddball, half of ours went for heavy weapons which was the main deciding factor of the game. They took the oddball into the back building near the airlift and then we attacked. We obtained the oddball and had rocket, sword and sniper coverage. SpraynPray and Nrek topped the games kill leaders and we won, 2 minutes to 50 seconds.

Match 3
I handed the party leader over to KP, so that he could choose whatever final gametype he had in store. Also, Hbo was down a member so we gave them super robot out of courtesy. KP choose Team King on Lockout. We were joking around at the beginning saying that Super better do a lot of team killing which he didnt do. Gruntsbane and I had a strategy that proved to be the winning factor. If we had two people in the hill and the rest guarding, victory would be ours. Hbo huddled everybody together in the center where our frags took over. Hbn won big, 3 minutes to 1 minute and 17 seconds. Check out these stats though. Kills: Hbn 124 Hbo 69. Assists: Hbn 70 Hbo 32.Once again our excellent teamwork skills brought us to the promise land.
