Team History
Death's shade was founded at Antioch College circa 1884 by a group of students who were fed up with the literary societies on campus. Our site map is the only known photo of this group, wielding Civil War surplus weaponry. Sadly, their names are lost to history. 120 years later, in the spring of 2005, while attending the same college, Bravo, Whiskey and Charlie unearth the photo and decide that the group needs to make a comeback. Thus, Death's Shade was reactivated in the Airsoft world.
