    A baseball cap turned backwards offers good protection to the back of your neck.

    Take some washing up liquid with you. Every time I've been, the face masks steam up quite badly, and a lttle dollop of fairy liquid smeared on the inside of the lenses works a treat.
    If at first you don't succeed... skydiving is not for you!

      Best approach is to run up to a position as fast as you can. Then from behind your position fire the odd shot ducking down each time. Then after five minutes of being pinned down and getting bored, jump up and should 'Who f**king wants some before legging it towards everyone in a scene from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. That way you look like a nutter while at the same
      time heading back to the safe zone for a fag while the game rages on for another 25 minutes.

      Sorted.

      Attacks are gung-ho idiots asking to get shot. You can pick them off at your leisure...

        Never underestimate the combination of fear and supressing fire.

        Getting shot by a paint ball hurts, therefore people don't want to get shot and will hide when shot at rather than returning fire. 1 shot every couple of seconds is enough to keep them pinned down while your mate runs up and blats them at close range

          Hiding behind a tree trying to pick off players like a Libyan mercenery is poor play, cowardly and should only be limited to ladies in high heels or fat ex-servicemen who post on the internet all day.

              Anyway... if you're going with a group from work, make sure the manager has the overalls with the big bulls-eye on it. It just saves time.

                Cue joke about emptying entire load of balls.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                    Lol.

                    I went on one where the stag was dressed up in a large floral dress, wig and fake breasts. He did it for two games before taking it off saying 'FFS how come everyone kept shooting me. Even my team!!!!'

                      The London bridge paintball place is divided up into 3 large areas with differing obstacles. you'll be divided up into 6 teams, 2 teams will go against each other in each area. The obstacles are lots of oil drums and palletes.

                      Still it's a good laugh. I had some nasty bruises from it though
