CARNAGE NEWS

We here at Carnage Paintball have come to realize we can no long keep prices the way they are. Since the cost of paint and shiping prices ( due to gas prices) have gone up since January, our prices need to be raised as well to compensate. We have kept it down as long as we can, sorry for the inconvience but we thank you for your understanding.

As of Nov 1 we will have a new pricing for a case of paint. There will be some prices that stay the same for your convience. Please keep checking the site for updates.

We also would like to announce that we will be reciving our new line of rental equipment for the field by Nov 1st as well. Contraiy to popular belief "NO" it has nothing to do with out paint cost change. Our rental fees help support our change in rental gear and will do so for many more months to come.

Another new concept that we decided to start doing every month is Scenario Sunday. Which is being moved to the 1st Sunday of every month from now on. We did this so that you may have a chance to attend the same events that the Atlanta Phoenix attends if you choose to do so. They would love to have you along. We have fourms that anybody can sign up on to keep in touch with whats going on with the team and the up coming events.

GENERAL INFO:

Playing Paintball: You don't have to be an athlete to play paintball. All you need is a good attitude and the desire to go out there and have a great time. There are several variations of paintball, the most common being a high-tech form of capture the flag. There are two teams. Each team has a home base at opposite sides of the playing field where each team hangs their flag. The goal is to make it from your home base to your opponents, capture their flag, and return it to your home base. Of course, there is one small problem: the other team is going to do their best to shoot you and put you out of the game! Another type of game is called Elimination. This works just as it sounds. There are two teams put on separate sides of the field. When the game is started, they meet somewhere in the middle and, well, eliminate each other. Sound like fun? It is! Besides being fun, paintball is great exercise, a great stress reliever, and it promotes teamwork.

Paintball is Safe: Even more important than making sure you day is fun is making sure your day is safe. Safety is the number one concern on the field. First, all players are require to wear paintball approved protective gear, which includes a goggle system for eye and face protection. All players are instructed in the safe handling of their paintball gun and other equipment. Experienced referees and field staff are on hand at all times to ensure that each and every player is playing safely and by the rules. Statistically, paintball is ranked safer than Bowling by the National Safety Council. If that doesn’t make a believer out of you try a .31 per 1000 participants a yr. 93 people a year get hurt per 1000 at home.

What to Bring: Bring yourself, friends, family, and expectations of a fun filled day. You should wear old, loose-fitting clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Try to wear something that will blend in with the woods; a white t-shirt definitely won't help you not get shot! We will provide you with all the equipment you need to play, including goggles, a paintball gun, CO2, paintballs, and instruction. When you get here, you and the other players will be separated into teams of equal ability. Then, after being given instruction on everything from rules to safety, you will be off to a great day of fun!
