    Oh God why do I want to play again?

    Whelp, it's been a long time since I've set foot on a field or in a store. Hell, I don't even know if my local field is even open anymore.

    But, 'tis spring, when young men's hearts turn to love. Not to mention paint, welts, and cheating. That means, it's paintball season!

    I've been out of the game for so long, I don't even know what my options are. I dug out my box of crap, trying to find a gun I could use. Didn't really want to deal with the MicroMags, and the Viking is kinda "eh". Then I dug out my Excal, and my spirits were raise a little. Then I realized that the board is fried and the noids suck, which is why I never got to play with it in the first place.

    So, here's the question. What are my options as far as boards and noids go. I'm pretty sure I can handle replacing the board, but what about the noids? Can I even order new ones?

    Edit: Also, if it doesn't have eyes in it yet, can I do the install or does that have to be done by someone that can spark a couple of brain cells together?

      You can still buy new noids from AKA I think they are like 80 bucks a pop though. Also as for a board I would look for a newer tadao because they rock. And enjoy I loved my excals.

                Are noids and boards on vikings an excals not interchangeable?



                Excals have what 2 noids? If they are then you would only have to buy one noid...

                    Virtue makes awesome boards as well. A bit pricey, but definately worth it.

                      Bryce is right, I just put a virtue board in my timmy and it's awesome! I would definately get one.

                            Never used a Tadao, so I don't know. The virtue is an awesome board though, and it comes with a lifetime warranty.

                              I've never even owned an electro (fastest marker I owned is a classic mag), but after the BS they pulled on PBN, and the ion virtue ad, I can never respect them

                              Thank god no pump companies come out with ads like that, my world would end
