Games are played on indoor or outdoor fields of varying sizes. A game field is scattered with natural or artificial terrain, which players use for strategic play.Rules for playing paintball vary, but can include capture the flag, elimination, defending or attacking a particular point or area, or capturing objects of interest hidden in the playing area. Depending on the variant played, games can last from seconds to hours, or even days in scenario play.Correction, compressed air is! Co2 can damage your gun and compressed air is cleaner, more accurate, and more consistent. The only down side is how much a compressed air tank can cost, but in performance, compressed air is superior to co2 in every way. :) Also, the point of the game is to shoot paintballs at the other team. There are different game types of paintball, two of the most common ones are woodsball, and speedball.

Paintball is a game where washable paint capsules (called paintballs) are shot from markers (guns) in order to mark and eliminate the opposing team. These Gelatin capsules are regulated to shoot just over 200 Miles per hour, or 300 feet per second, and every play must wear a paintball mask.

There are many variants to the game but is generally split into two categories: Woodsball and Speedball. Woodsball, usually more military simulation, is usually played with trees or bunkers in large outdoor areas with more realistic looking markers. Speedball is the more "sporty" version of paintball with very flash and fast guns, on turf or grass fields with large inflatable bunkers. Both kinds have national leagues, but generally only speedball is shown on television, because of its more friendly appearance.
