just noticed an error on my own post an want to fix it now. The ordinance and launchers are not 40 cal or even 68 cal, the LAW launcher for example is 54mm ( just smaller then a baseball ) and the artillery is 68mm ( just smaller then a softball ).
These markers are intended for use on make shift tanks an hardened objects such us structures that house combatants. Tanks typically are max 6 wheel drive ATV's, Quads and or Oddeseys with thin steel plating with machine guns such as rainmaker M-60's, Browning machine guns or even gatling guns and tyipcally the max6 ATV's have the 54mm or 68mm tank paintball cannon wich has its own compressor on board the vehicle.
Best I have seen is the max6 ATV wich had the 64mm tank cannon mounted on the roll cage with a swiveling plate that swiveled 180 degrees from left to right and was hydraulically raised an lowered for elevation. In the passengers seat was a Browning machine gun mounted on a swivel for 180 degrees left an right and on a pin allowing elevation. This was also fed by the max6's on board compressor. The unit its self didnt look like a real tank with its boxy shape as it was almost completely enclosed with thin metal sheeting but definately spit out some seriouse firepower.
According to the rules of the game, small arm fire couldnt stop it seeing as it was a " tank " but getting hit by either a LAW round, ordance such as mortars or the artillery shell, and any one of the landmines would deam the tank useless an it combatants would abandon the vehicle until the end of the game.
You wouldnt believe how real life the game seams when playing it, I am hoping to make it to one of the big outting hosted outwest where players from around the country show up for an entire weekend. Teams are designated before attending an begins typically friday afternoon where both teams get dropped off in thier designated area, pitch camps an secure the perimiter with sentries an landmines and from the minute they are dropped off to late sunday evening its fair game, you can recon the field and engage the enemy at any time of day or night, so be sure to post 24/7 sentries as from what I hear the fighting can be just as fierce at night as it can be durring the day lol.
