Paintball

Hardcore mode - oldschool mode.. something..

rules for mode: no pods, no pads, no batteries.

thoughts?

I like it. What about dynamic hits - you get hit in the leg, you can't use the leg etc

The "no pods" has some holes in it for me. Do you mean hopper loads only, or tubes and bags only? Real oldschool; everyone playing gets their paint from the same bag, either by portion or what they can carry if that is less. If there is only enough for 14 balls each at the end of the day, that's what you get.

These rules were in place for the only fist fight I've ever seen in an outlaw game. Never again. The rule was 2 hit to torso or one to head. arms/legs didn't count.

we normally play hopperball - but stockclass guys can carry all the 10 round tubes they want...
for some of the really limited games we do 25 rounds / player max... but those are the exception not the rule.

yep - im not a fan of head shots on zombies etc.. or multiple hits to make eliminate. we normally play all hits count.. it just has to break.

Everyone on everyone. All players start in a circle, the ref blows a whistle and gives you a ten count to get into position. Only the winner survives. I used to like that game when I played on Dan Colby's field back in the early nineties.

It is always interesting to see who just stands there waiting to light up their buddies.
