Can't say I'm happy about painting up the wilderness just for fun. Is this an area set aside for paintball?

yeah we only paintball in my backyard and we rope off the area to prevent messing up the whole forest but we usally try to get paintballs that are come off with water and wash them off or let the rain handle it have to save a space for the people of the future to get lost in

That's kinda cool, actually. I live in the City, so I couldn't turn my car around in my back yard, if I could get it there in the first place. If i had a back yard like yours, you'd never get me in the house!

You should try to get someone to drop you off and try to survive as one solid unit. Or better yet, for something more interesting you could split into two groups if you have enough people. That way you can have two base camps that are some distance from each other (maybe a mile) and practice survival skills while trying to plan an ambush on the other team.

If you are the only person with outdoor survival skills, tell the people in the group what they can bring, and then when the shooting is over the winning them gets you on their side for some lessons. If I didn't know anything about survival and camping I would definately want an expert on my side, and that would make for creative paintball attacks.

That sounds a lot like the "Capture the Flag" we used to play while I was in Civil Air Patrol as a kid - without the paintball. Our was a bit vicsious though.

Hmmmm, it could be very helpful.

Split into two groups, each with survival supplies. Have each group try to protect their supplies while also trying to take supplies from the other group. That would be great training for both survival and security. And what the heck, it could even make an interesting reality show!

Although it could get out of hand if you weren't careful.

Sounds like fun. Let us know how it turns out.

Maybe have a referee, or several judges.
