Speedball: “Speedball is characterized by its fast movement, both with players and game length, and high volume of fire. Although a typical speedball round lasts only several minutes, many of the players are firing an almost constant stream of paintballs, consuming a quantity of paint in a single round that many woodsball and scenario players would expect to go through in three or four. For this reason, many commercial speedball fields are bordered by a pro shop, where players can purchase additional paint and propellant refills.”

Woodsball: “Woodsball is the classic form of paintball. Technically, woodsball doesn't have to be played in ”woods“ as such, but play is called such if it occurs in a natural area such as, of course, woods, but also open fields, swamps, mountains, canyons, et cetera. Another characteristic of woodsball is its generally relatively large boundaries, or perhaps no boundaries at all. Woodsball has many popular variants which are often played, giving the game very flexible variety.”

Scenario ball:“Scenario paintball games are based on a storyline or theme. Scenario games allow for a wide range of player skill levels and an even larger amount of participants. These games can span a period as short as 12 hours or last for days. Objectives vary based on the storyline but cooperation is a major theme in these games.”

Reball: “A ”reball“ is a rubber-like substitute for a paintball, whilst a ‘T-ball’ is slightly harder. Reball is a brand name, as is T-ball, but is often used when describing Rufus Dawg Target Balls, and other knock-offs. Reballs are the same size as normal paintballs but weigh less, and do not contain a paint filling. While they do not break open to leave a paint mark on players, the lack of filling makes them useful for indoor locations where accumulation of paint from broken paintballs would be a problem. A reball is more expensive than a paintball, but since they can be reused, they are cheaper over the long term. Some paintball parks have added dedicated reball fields. The primary use of reballs, as intended initially by the manufacturer, is as a practice aid for teams who wish to practice and save money by using reusable ammunition. ”


Þetta er það í aðalatriðum. Eina sem ég veit um Xball er að þetta er einhvers konar mót, þ.e. reglur um mót.



Og já, ég tók þetta allt af wikipedia :-)
