== Event ==

Promoter [[Tim Montressor]] expanded the ten-player competition to 72 teams and added a Friday five-player competition. To accommodate the larger programme, Montressor and Urban Assault added a fourth playing field, known as the Hybrid field, alongside the venue's existing [[Hyperball]], earth-mound and woodland fields. [4]

The Hybrid field combined woodland terrain with wooden structures, huts, trenches and low mounds. The Hyperball field used corrugated-pipe bunkers and could be watched by spectators from higher ground. The earth-mound field incorporated a long snake bunker along its netted side and larger mounds through the centre. [4]

Entrants included San Diego Dynasty, San Antonio X-Factor, Image, Philadelphia Americans, Ground Zero, Farside and Bad Company. Rushers travelled from the United Kingdom to compete. [4]

The event also hosted equipment and paint vendors, including G.I. Sportz, HK Army, Valken, Virtue and Inception. [[GoSports]] provided webcast coverage of play on the Hyperball field. [4]
