speedball is played on a much smaller area. camo isnt nessacary, cause there probably isnt very much natural coverage around. but usually has a freaking bunch of bunkers made out of whatever. they have big inflatable bunkers, or some people use cars, pieces of wood, etc. speedball games last about 5-10minutes, to maybe around 15-20. maybe longer. speedball is much more about the shooting part, you know where your opponent is. there is still alot of stratagey behind speedball, though.

http://www.pbreview.com has alot of information in their forums, if you care to sift through them. they also have reviews (hence name) on just about everything paintball, even fields. it is indeed a great website.
the best website that i have found to order stuff from is http://www.actionvillage.com - they have a lowest price garuentee thing like sounddomain, and an extremely wide selection.
and you are welcome lotas.
and sinister, they grenades dont work excatly how one would imagine. ive never used one myself, but i hear they arent very effective.
and ridr, you are right on with the 3 gas things, the nitro/HPA system is freakin expensive to upgrade to.

and and and and... dear lord i am tired!

My only experience with paintball got me expelled from high school. I had one in my car and someone ratted on me. The school considered it a pellet gun, and therefore it was a weapon. I could have had a shotgun in my car and I would have received the same punishment.

I only had my paintball gun for 1 week and my parents made me sell it to pay for the summer school classes I had to take to make up the credits. Needless to say, I got screwed.

lol you guys are funny

I play speedball and woodsball with a group of about 25

I have a spyder fenix acs 220 ct. halo hoper 2 20 oz tanks and a 68ci 4500 psi tank
Just thinking about buying another gun, looking at the angel w7's but a lil to pricey so maybe an autococker trilogy?

ight guys im off to work
