Hi All,

Several of the Kenties have said they would be up for another bash at paintball in 2008. I'm happy to organise something local, and have a couple of sites in mind that I've used before. It'll be same drill as before - just turn up and use site equipment & I'll try for a good deal on paint. As usual it always helps to have good numbers when negotiating discounts, so the more support we get the better for all. Looking at March/April as weather should hopefully be more settled by then, but if anyones got specific dates or sites in mind let me know.

So who's up for another session?

Just a suggestion, but if you guys fancy something different:

http://www.warfighters.eu/

Highly recommended, the website explains it all, if you're interested let me know and I can give your personal details and get you in touch with the owner.

Nice idea - but both sites on website are in the midlands

Want something local to Kent to keep cost down. Also having played paintball for a number of years, would prefer the thrill factor of dodging paint welts rather than lazers. May be the sadist in me - but the challenge of avoiding the pain in 'pain' tball is what keeps me playing :devil:

Depends which game you play. The outdoors GRAW game is laser based (SCARH guns, 500 - 750m range), however the Rainbow 6 event is mainly indoors using a variety of RAP paint ball markers. Dynamic room entry, clearance and general CQB based events, with CCTV footage for playback and debriefs.

Right.... I rang the guys at National Paintball Games today, and had a chat with the owner Doug Setters. I've known Doug for years and the site at Sidcup, although I have not played there for ages. Paul Critcher had a great day there with his son Ryan last year, and the prices seem pretty good.

Have a look at the website and let me know what you think

He runs games every weekend - we just need to do is set a date, collect the £15 deposits and go for it. I personally favour doing a Sunday in late March? The Gold price deal of £60 including 1000 paint is good value for money for a rental site IMO.

Anyway let me know what you think?
