The Bungie Seven

A Sports Anomaly

The tale begins where all great stories do. On the field of battle.
Instead of discarded spaulders betwixt spears, swords and crudely removed limbs, this skirmish involved pastel Umbros, too-tight T-shirts, and faux-surly delicates in a dalliance, whipping a disc through rain-blotted Seattle air.
"Ultimate Frisbee is the sport of Champions." Or rather, the Bungie Seven are the "champions" of a local unofficial Kirkland Ultimate Frisbee pick-up league.

Meet the Bungie Seven

Take a Picture

This weekend at PAX we're lifting the veil on Assembly, the map previously known as Purple Reign. For the folks who are unable to make it to Seattle to play it themselves, take a gander (engorged versions here):

H3-Assembly 14 (Jump).jpg
H3-Assembly 18 (Covenant on Covenant).jpg
H3-Assembly 17 (Needler Beats Everything?).jpg
H3-Assembly 11 (Play Ball).jpg
H3-Assembly 09 (Mauler Mauled).jpg
H3-Assembly 01 (Horror Factory).jpg
H3-Assembly 05 (Interior Spaces).jpg
H3-Assembly 04 (Death Built Up).jpg

Let's head off the inevitable influx of questions at the proverbial pass: We currently have no information on how or when Assembly will be made available. When we know, we'll let you know. We promise.
