Hello and welcome to the new LongShots site.
The current games for us are: Tribes 1, Sauerbraten and StarTrek Bridge Commander.
We
started out in Ultra Renegades (Tribes 1 mod) many years ago and have
tried to maintain a friend clan. We like to stick by each other in
anything we do. After many years of {LS} being in nothing but Ultra Ren
and the drop in Tribes players we decided to play other mods. After 7
years of one mod things were going to be different.
Right away I (Tango) went scouting other
mods. I tried Elite Renegades but after seeing that all it had was a
heavy with a chaingun and some good armors no one used it was time to
try another. Now during this I also played Reality Bites, good mod but
I was in the mods clan as {RB}TooL and now (Tango|TooL). So I went back
to the roots and played base. Base duel was the first outside mod {LS}
went to. We currently have {LS}Dewyfiend, {LS}GAMBiT, {LS}D3nTyn_3* and
along with most of the current LS members. I said to myself at one time
that I would never even go to Annihilation but I gave it a try anyway.
I played it for about 2 weeks before I decided to expand there. In
those 2 weeks I seen potential in a lot of people to become dedicated
members.
After some time in meeting people and
knowing the mod more before I went ahead I talked to a member that is
familiar with the mod more, {LS}Dewyfiend and {LS}Surefyre. I started
hosting a server for {LS} Annihilation. Right away I noticed the mod
was put together pretty odd. It got me interested. Annihilation, it's a
mod that is flexible and you need some know how to work it. We like
being in Annihilation, Ultra Ren and base.

Cube 2: Sauerbraten is a free multiplayer/singleplayer first person shooter, built as a major redesign of the Cube FPS.
Much like the original Cube, the aim of this game is not necessarily to produce the most features & eyecandy possible, but rather to allow map/geometry editing to be done dynamically in-game, to create fun gameplay and an elegant engine.
(Above taken from http://sauerbraten.org )
We have been in Sauerbraten for about 6 months now. The only members from tribes that joined is Surefyre, S_hift, Loghead and Mango.
I am currently hosting one server there. The name of the server is "www.longshots.info". I am hoping to get more members in LS for this game.
This is a very fast paced game with many different game types (mods) such as:
FFA: Get all 9 weapons by getting items on maps. Kill or be killed.
Team Play: Get all 9 weapons by getting items on maps.(FFA Team Mode)
Instagib: One sniper rifle, one shot kill. (Team setting available)
Instagib Capture: One sniper rifle, one shot kill. CTF, 2 teams.
InstaProtect: Two teams, protect your own flag. One shot kill.
Efficiency: Spawn with all weapons, no items.(Team setting available)
Tactics: Spawn with 2 random weapons, no items.(Team setting available)
Regen Capture: Spawn with pistol and capture poles to collect weapons.
Capture: Capture the enemy flag and collect items to get weapons.
Coop-Edit: Join a group effort for creating and editing maps.
The official story line of this game is to kill the other guy.
