Paintballers at all levels are always looking for the latest upgrade.   In our sport the slightest edge can mean the difference between hanging the flag and dragging feet to the deadbox.   Line-of-Fire Paintball offers players of all ages a chance to upgrade the most essential aspect of the gear – themselves. Each summer Line-of-Fire puts on a three day paintball skills camp.   Campers range from 10-years-old to 60, but they all come for the same reasons: to have fun, to improve their skills, and to add some new techniques to their repertoires.   This year’s experience covered the basics that everyone needs to play the sport, then focused on some skills specific to the scenario side of the sport.

To help with his mounting medical bills, Indy’s Battleground Paintball decided to host a scenario event with 50% of admission and five dollars of each case of paint being donated to Chris’s GoFundMe campaign. The Bounty Hunters joined the NATO Special Operations Forces, with our own Tyler Winn serving as general...

  It’s been a busy fall paintball season for Team Capital Offense.   Fields and producers, amped on surging numbers of players, have put out more scenario action than teams know how to handle!   Here are a few highlights from the past few months. In August the team split for the Star Wars vs. Star Trek game at OXCC in Maryland and the Borderlands scenario at Boss Paintball in North Carolina.   The NC contingent fought under former Vicious pro Matt Sossoman as we rocked the front lines in a hard-fought contest.   Capital Offense shooter, Brian Radford, racked up the award all players want – the one given for being the biggest threat to the opposing team. September once again saw the team pulled in two directions.   The northern contingent made a strong showing at SplatBrothers , while the southern crew set up shop in North Myrtle Beach, SC for the annual Invasion of Japan scenario at Adventure Beach Paintball .   Team members brought ...
