I have looked, and I apologize if it is out there and I haven't found it, but how much is paint for this event?

[Madivan]

We do not have the prices posted on paintballs yet due to us trying to get the best price available. For the past 8 other years for this event we have managed to keep the top grade of paintballs to less than $70 a case and the mid-grade balls to less than $60. Most years it has been $50 mid-grade and $65 for top grade paintballs.... All Paintballs are coming from Empire this year.

We will have the prices posted here by Aug 1st.

Also, keep in mind we do not have any special or surprise fee for CO2/HPA, camping or anything else. It's all part of the entry feel

[Madivan]

The Ghostwalkers will be manning the gunboat on the river for this game! The gunboat this year will have some huge improvements and extras... We are working on some new toys for this event as well...

[Toonces007]

Registered and ready to roll.

Forty little smackers is a great price for two days of scenario ball; add in free camping and you'd be crazy not to come out!

Just have to decide which faction to play as.

[Madivan]

All of you wondering about this one need to check it out. I've attended this game the past 4 yrs and have yet to be disappointed. The field is massive, objectives clear, and the ref staff is superb. Dont forget the camping area either. Plenty of room for everyone you wont be packed in like sardines here.

[LeeBanks]

My name is Lee Banks. I will be the CO for the Allied side. I hope we have a good turn out for this game German and Allies. It should be fun.
See you all soon.

[J.Smith]

This game was great last year, I will be there again and will be bringing two with me from Memphis this time. And also the paint that I shot last year was the best paint I have ever shot in the 18 years I have been playing. Everyone should try this game!
