VIP
Rather than focusing on eliminating
the other team, wouldn't it be easier to narrow your focus onto one opposing
player? VIP places you with the responsibility of protecting your VIP while also
attempting to eliminate your opponent's.
Requirements
A field and some players. You should
have at least three players per team but you can play with more. More than
about eight to ten players per team might be too many.
Setup
Establish two bases at opposing ends
of your field and position. Divide your group into two teams and position each
team at a base and have each team elect a VIP. Make sure that the teams know who
the VIP is on the opposing team and that the field boundaries are clearly
defined. Before you begin, also establish a time limit for the game - twenty
minutes usually is about right, but depending on the number of players it could
be longer or shorter.
Rules
All general rules of paintball apply,
and remember to be safe. When both teams are ready, the game begins when
someone shouts, "Game on!" The goal of each team is to eliminate the opposing
team's VIP while protecting their own. A player is out and must leave the field
if a paintball breaks on him or he calls himself out for any reason. Depending
on how you want to play the VIP can play with a gun, but it is often more
exciting for the VIP to be unarmed.
Victory
A team wins by eliminating the
opposing team's VIP.
