    Not half. Slipped in a fort structure, landed badly and buggered my elbow up. Still not right a year later.

You have to aim ahead of the target and above if far away, bit like a shotgun, the paintballs are visible but satisfyingly fast. Floors can be a tad slippy though.

    It's always satifying to see the blood paint on the goggles after a head shot

    If you've got any sort of "capture" objective, use smoke. It helps a lot.

    Just bring a couple of .50 cal for purely defensive purposes, it will be like shooting melons

    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

    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!!!!'

    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.

    Attacks are gung-ho idiots asking to get shot. You can pick them off at your leisure...
    Not WCS.

    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.

    You need windmills. I really want to see those windmills.
