The two buzzer buttons are in the centre of the field. Otherwise you'd need really long arms or a big stick.

Anybody have a 20metre barrel ?? .

Sounds interesting, will have a chat with my guys about this one.

You can see the clock and buttons in this shot. Although it may look different by the time the proper tournament is run.

So Basically we are talking here £175 per team , the team can contain either 5 or upto 10 players .

This is good for cutting down the cost even further.

Do you have a date in mind for this event yet.

Cheers for any info.

No you are talking £35 per player.

Yep, no gun restraints. And guess what, no-one died Thing is, you shoot all your paint in 3 seconds, you have to go get more, which means your team score suffers. Same if you run out of air. So you have to pick your shots wisely, and then you have a burst of speed if needed. I ran my mini on 10bps all day, but some people there were easy shooting at 18-20bps ramping.

The game played really well, and I would love to try it out again but against some different teams. Just to see how they tackle it.

First day of playing paintball that I have really enjoyed for a long time.

lol that wasn't my thought. In Hawaii we train uncapped semi all the time........ just unusual, but then so is the whole idea.

Shame I think I am in croatia or the netherlands playing that w/e..... colchesters local to me when im in england too

If there have been no changes since we tested it then the idea is to have a maximum of 5 players on the field at any given time. With a total of ten players shared between the safe zone and the playing field.

You would struggle with less than ten, it would be very hard work for anyone but the superfit and insane. Also if you had two or three players shot out you would begin to suffer as you would be continually outnumbered.

As far as I know, and remember I'm only a humble guinea pig not the evil genius behind Formula 5 (The Johns), then it is supposed to be played with a full team of ten players.
