Just done it for the first time this weekend for a friends stag doo.

Awesome fun

...but my god does it hurt when you get 5 paintballs in the chest and arms in the space of a couple of seconds...

knuckles and elbows are the worst

Great fun

I remember having circular cuts ringed by bruising on my legs where I got hit

Amazing how easy it is to win every game by just ensuring everyone on your team is working to a plan rather than just running around shooting blindly too

For flag games, our plans usually works like this:

Dig down for a few mins, plink off a few obvious runners. Then whilst the other team is dug deep and settled. Just run in there and get the flag, and leg it.

Moving target + Trees = hard target

Our bunch are a load of wusses, nobody wants the flag, so I end up doing it myself. Many opposing teams are the same, they are so paranoid about getting shot they don't do anything!

Best one is when the opposing team is dug down expecting the enemy to come from ahead, you sneak round behind them and catch the crouching looking the opposite way. A few choice plinks on the **** lets them know where the enemy is

I bloody love paintball

I played a game recently and my side would not attack. I dropped my gun off at my flag base, and legged it, dived over 2 people behind a tree stump, they missed with all their shots. Got the flag, ran past 2 people as they set off a smoke grenade which helped my extraction I got all the start or my side and got hit with a hail of paint from both sides I got about 3 on the back, 4 in the chest and 2 in the face. Dropped the flag and someone else took the glory.

I also got hit in the neck point blank once by an idiot. I've still got the scar now and it was 3 years ago.

Has anyone use the paint landmines they have in the US?
