Haven’t blogged in a while but I did pick up this announcement from Tippman earlier this month which I thought I should post in case people are looking for further information on the Tippman TPX pistol.

As paintball improved and became popular, many individuals tried their abilities at it; giving rise to the assortment and diversity of paintball tournaments and games.

Recreational or Capture the Flag Played by two teams, where each team has a flag and the objective of both teams is to capture or seize the opponent’s flag and carry it to your team’s starting point. This is one way for your team to win and another way is by eliminating the opposing team entirely.

Each team has to defend their base and simultaneously dispatch team players to eliminate the opponent and capture their flag.

These games are usually played in the forest; bunkers and structures can be put up throughout the area.

Scenario Paintball
This is a paintball game with a theme set up behind it: there are an endless number of themes that can be created making the game feel and look very realistic. There are a number of players; in many cases as many as a hundred are involved in each team.

Each team gets the theme (storyline) a day before the start of the game. There are usually two teams participating, having the “general” as a team’s leader.

Each player is given a role and they should work together as a team in order to carry out and win an assigned mission. Props in accordance with the theme are introduced and distributed throughout the field. There are questions asked in connection with the theme and points are awarded for correct answers.

These points are totaled at the conclusion of the game and the team having the most number of points wins.

Backyard
This can be played right at your own backyard, a friend’s empty property or at times any property but you must as you get permission first. You gather your friends to form a group and then conceptualize your own game which typically is “capture the flag”.

Speedball
Also called “Center Flag”, the speedball field is designed with many huge bunkers; usually “inflatables” filled with air that are shaped similar to big snakes, soda cans, water tanks etc.

Here, a team can be composed of between three to ten players in a game. There is only one flag that is involved and it is located at the center of a field. The two teams start at each end of the field and attempt to gain possession of the flag at the center and carry it to their bunker. The team that does this successfully wins.

Paintball can surely challenge the “soldier” in you. Give it a shot!

One of the most obvious questions we field is “What is needed to get started in paintball and whats it going to cost?”

 I looked around for a “standard” answer and came across the DyeHard website. These guys have a whole lot of starter kits for South Africans looking to get into paintball. These range from between R1450 and R2000 depending on how jacked up you want to be.

To give you an example:

Spyder TL-X Deluxe pack -

• Sleek, Custom Milled Receiver
• Spyder TLX marker
• Java X Type mask
• Java 12-oz aluminum CO2 tank
• Java 200-round Hopper
• Java Jerk squeegee with a swab
• Kingman Barrel Plug

Bearing in mind the current social climate and the level of gun related violence in South Africa, I do worry a bit about the publishing of images of Paintball rifles and equipment.

Obviously the idea is not to be distasteful in anyway and I would love feedback from the people who are hitting the Splat Attack! site to find out whether they worry that the images might be less than well received?
