What fields do you play at in Illinois?

Surge-NS · 04-06-2006, 01:44 AM

I play at:
Realms of Ruin (scenario and rec)
Challenge park (scenario and rec)
Take aim (speedball)
Fox paintball (rec)

Where do you all play?

CPX
Take Aim
Played at Badlandz once, I won't be going back.
I keep meaning to give Fox Piantball a try, but I haven't gotten around to it.
I hope to make it out to Realms for the Siberia scenario; that will be my first time there.

I wish I knew someone with some land that I could play renegade ball on. Paint prices just seem to be ridiculously high at the fields around here.

There's an indoor Reball place that opened in Elmhurst (I think) that I might check out sometime.

I play at Xtreme Paintball Park in Millstadt IL www.xtremepaintballpark.com
or the Coloseum in Wood River www.stlindoor.com Xtreme is my favorite though. Both are in the St. Louis Area.

P.S. I also play at Sudden Impact every spring for the Spring Pump Event in McLean (By Bloomington) Or the outlaw field we have setup in our back woods.

I'll be at SPE this year too, time to add it to the calender in case anybody wants to walk on...

i was just at sudden impact today for SPE. the only other IL field i have played much at the past few years was Xtreme, but since I moved, I need to find a new place.

What area are you in now? I'm sure you'd get plenty of reccomendations for places in your new area.

There really are no organized fields where I live. But there are a few renegade fields close by, and a reball field in a church gym.

Why won't you be going back? I just ask because that is where I play most often. Good mix of speed and woodsball. I'll get at least twice as many games in as I would at CPX, and you just can't beat $40/case.

I played at Factory Paintball in North Chicago for the first time this Sunday. For the first 1.5 hours, I was one of about 3 players with a mechanical marker. After the DM's, Timmys and Shockers left and more mechs showed up, I enjoyed myself a bit more. Or maybe it was just learning curve, since it was my first time playing indoors. All the folks there are very nice.

91 Foxtrot, if you're in the area you should try out takeaim. I like that better than factory, but it's not a night and day difference. I head there every couple weeks to get my fix in the off season when I can't play outside, or when I don't have time to make the trip to Realms.

When I went, I played all day and not once was there a velocity check. I know I wasn't shooting hot because I always chrono in anyways, but I can't speak for anyone else that was playing there.

I prefer to have a little more assurance that I'm not going to get my eyes

out.

They do have nice fields though.

The ocean's ability to attack the land is limited, so it lends the sky some of its water and energy so it can assault people farther inland then it normally could. Hurricanes are far more powerful then the storms the sky creates on its own. They are just another reason the ocean must be destroyed.
