Paintball Scenario Games are not a new type of paintball game, but one which has recently become the fastest growing type of paintball game.

Scenario games allow you to play as different characters or factions, play in different locations with themed buildings / vehicles, be set in almost any place and time- past, present, or future. The most popular themes are Science Fiction and historic or fantasy events.

Most of these games are played on large fields forcing groups to play in a 360-degree environment, not the normal forward only assault of Tournament style. The Scenario game teaches players to learn energy and paint conservation, how to lead and how to follow, effective communication methods, the honor of how you play instead of how you win.

Unlike Tournament play, there are really no losers in a scenario game. No matter who won the scenario, both the victors and the vanquished go home satisfied. The thrill of victory in a scenario is real, but there is no loss of honor or respect in being on the losing side. Being there and enjoying the camaraderie and friendships of players from distant fields makes all the players winners.

Most Large scenario games are advertised and written about in PBUK , so grab a copy and start reading !.

Of course, turning up to these events with your standard paintball marker and clothing won't let you get into the true spirit, so with that in mind take a look at some of the upgrades / modifications available !
