It sounds like fun. But the prices are ridiculous. $99 a box of paint? no byop? just a little ridiculous. I must be cheap because I wouldnt spend that much on paint. and i shoot two boxes when i play in a couple hours...

Things aren't looking good for me, sadly. Money is scarce now (especially after i get my custom pro ) since my job sucks beyond belief and the friends I planned on going with are now going on vacation just before the game. If I can't find anybody else to go with then I'm just not gonna bother. A game like that is something you have to bring a friend to otherwise it's not the same.

so who's going

- I am definitely going and it is the best scenerio game EVER!!!!!!!
What fields do they use at night? Anything lighted?

-They use the woods all day and all night. Nothing lighted. Night vision is the best. I usually play and go back in one more time after its dark for fun. But the its time to kick back after.

fireworks, mass confusion, balls coming from everywhere...whats better than that?

-Nothing is better then that. it adds a scary element. Turn on a flash light and get lit up. Pretty off the meat. Now if you could find a way to shoot a bright light in every direction youd be unstopable mwa hahah

do you guys go to the campground,go home or just sleep up against a tree at skirmish?

- Definitely get to camp there for free. So nice when filling up paint or getting a snack. there is plenty of room and its alot of fun.

with 2700 people last year how bad was it to park? what were the lines like for air, paint and food? also how does d-day run?

-Parking was cake. Plenty of room. A little hard to find though. The main Skirmish building is a little bit aways from where the main field and camping grounds are. We showed up last year and didnt know where the camp grounds were. Luckily they left a note (I swear) on the door (well flyers actually) on how to get to the camp grounds. I am glad they did that. I hope they do it again next year. The lines for air were fine if you have compressed air. CO2 was a pain in the neck. Youd have to go far away. Maybe this year they will do the smart thing and put the two next to each other. Man getting CO2 was a pain for some. Luckily I got to use compressed air. Lines for food were just fine also. I never had to wait for food. You can get more info on the game at Skirmish.com

It can't really be categorized as woodsball or speedball because it can really turn into either one. A scenario game can turn into anything because it's spread out over a large field with hundreds or thousands of players. It's almost always out in the woods but if everybody bunches up it could turn into more of a speedball match in the woods. Anything can happen and eliminations don't really matter which is why I love scenarios. You win by accumulating points so there is a more strategic twist to the game instead of just plain elimination or capture the flag. Scenarios are a lot of fun and I highly recommend them to people that are into woodsball. If you really only like speedball then scenarios might not be for you since they almost always take place in the woods and you don't get consistent speedball-type action. I like both speedball and woodsball so scenarios are heaven for me.

I'll most likely be there with a few friends. Hopefully I'll have my custom pro by then so I can go crazy on the beach .

^ Its actualy $100 a case plus tax. If you have 12 people it will be $72. And if your caught with your own paint they will kick you out. Its easily over a $200 day.

BY the way, I dont think Im going to make it. Vacation.

i'd try and make the trip, but 72 bucks for a case of paint? and no byop? sounds pretty expensive over 24 hours

I would advise you to pitch a tent and then you can chill there, some food is a good idea too, basically you will need to sleep, refill and just chill out so claim your land and pitch a tent...
