| Review: |
I go there for their big games. The first game was based on the movie "Space Balls". It was fun, the had teams set up fairly and some cool missions and props. (I remember my friend had to carry a big square of wood and a checked blanket on it, it was a funny moment) It was a fast couple of games, with no real favor to either team. On team would be on defense and in 5min the tides would turn and they would be on assault. They have this grade bunker type of thing made of a couple huge fallen trees, lots of fun to defend. The only bad thing I noticed was there wasn't a whole lot of open space to shoot. Brush and small trees got in your way for long ball shots. I know this comes with rec ball but still, maybe they could cut a few of the trees down. Over all it was fun, I won 500 free paintballs and was entered into a raffle for a Tippman A-5 (they have a raffle at most big games)

My last game I played there was also a big game, but it was in the winter w/ snow on the ground. This game I didn't have as much fun at, first of all it was dead cold (not their fault of course) and the theme was Aliens VS Predators. They had some interesting missions, but most were "Quick! Find 5 Object As and bring them back to base!" They had a system set up though, for missions you did, and points you found on the feild you could be "Predators" These guys were from the home team (The Jesters I think) They were very skilled but the thing is it made the game feel very unbalanced. I would have enjoyed it more without them, or if they would equaly split on each team. Although, like always another funny moment came out of the props. The rules for one of the props went like, if you find a stuffed animal on the field, you get 1000 free paintballs.
The same friend from last game (read above) found one, and for half the game went around with a multicolored dolphin tucked in his belt (I have pics to prove it! lol)
------
Refs: The refs were good and helpful most of the time. A few refs seemed alittle unfriendly (even though I never broke a rule)
Cronoing: Well, basicly you didnt get an armband if you didn't crono. No armband, no playing. The thing is I noticed none of the rentals cronoing and wished they would make them (even if the guns are still precronoed, the velocity can change.)
Paint: About $100 a case, not cheap, but I never had a break either.
Air: $10 full day air pass (great deal, plus they will rent out nitro tanks)
Ovreall: (8) Good field, I will return (plus I have a few pass I won!) Few minor annoyences.
