Myself and Hemlock would attend.

[ShooterJM]

Cool cool, well that's a start! You guys have a field you normally play at?

Anyone else?


EDIT: Just checked and saw you were in NM. Maybe there's a field south of denver that'd be a lot closer for you guys. Kinda depends who all wants to do this.

[obsolete898]

Yea we're in Albuquerque. We play at Paint Ball Action.

[ShooterJM]

Gotcha, how far of a drive is it from there to Colorado? There's gotta be a place we can meet in the middle somewhere.

[obsolete898]

Denver is about 5 1/2 from Albuq. I know there is a place in northern NM but I've never been there.

Cool. Hey I'm willing to drive. Almost drove to Missouri to go to their meet.

Come on people, there has got to be more then THREE people in colorado and New Mexico who'd want to do this!

[bsolomon]

I might be up for this. Perhaps the Paintball Adventures field in Sedalia or either Rocky Mountain Paintball or DragonMan's near Colorado Springs?

Doesn't matter to me really, anywhere within about a 7 hour drive and I'm good to go.

As for a date, I'd be leaning toward end of august begining of september. What do you guys think?

I've never played at those fields, any good?

I've been doing a lot of traveling for paintball this year (including scenarios in Florida, North Carolina, Chicago, and Greeley this past weekend) - the closer to home, the better for me.

The field at Sedalia is pretty nice with a lot of cover and bunkers, but their prices tend to be a little too high for my tastes. I haven't played the other two, but I hear they are pretty good if you like the more desert-style less woods-style terrain. I don't think DragonMans fills HPA, only CO2, so that could be a problem (I can bring a 3500 psi scuba).

The time-frame works OK for me. I hope to have my new Emag Extreme by then...

[ShooterJM]

Cool cool. Yeah I just checked out PBA. Do you have a number or know prices at DragonMan's? I personally don't care about fills (I'll be using CO2 unless I pick up an air system before then) but I could see that being an issue. Colorado Springs doesn't seem like that bad of an idea though, it would cut around an hour off of Hemlock's and Obsolete's drive.

Any preferances between Sept 7 or 14th?

[bsolomon]

Either date works for me. Dragon Man's doesn't look like a bargain either...

Here's what I can find on the three fields:

Its got 2 big outdoor terrain fields, a D-day reinactment( nothing special but fun none the less, emag+german=MMMMM) one sup air and another concept field. I hear they were making a ww1 field with trenches and stuff, it should be completed soon.
There is another nice fieldin colo springs. Forgot name but its CHEAP probably not adaquate for this many people buts its got one black tube field and one sup' air Entry 10 bucks, generic blaze seconds for 50/case and kick'n for 60/case. 1 buck per 1000psi and i believe 30c/ounce of Co2

[Brian68mag]

oh and i can bring some freinds along, for sure one or 2, if the date is right 4-6, they wont all have mags but its more people to shoot at lol.

[dawump]

I'm in. The field at Sedalia is pretty good.. and infact there are several fields depending on what you want to play.

The one in the springs is OK as long as you get like minded people. I did a 24 hour scenario there which was awesome, but then went back as a walk on and there weren't enough people. They claim to have the biggest hyperball field in the state, and also have some really good wooded areas. 30 acres total. YOU CAN ALSO BRING YOUR OWN PAINT!!!
