Paintball

­ Paintball is a sophisticated and challenging combination of the childhood games "tag" and "hide & seek". Played by teams of one or two, five or seven or ten, to over 1,000 on a side, depending on the size of the playing field, the object of the game is to go out and capture the other team's flag while protecting your own. While you are trying to capture a flag, you also try to eliminate opposing players by tagging them with a paintball expelled from a special airgun called a "paintgun." Games run from 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the field and the number of players. (­Warpig)
