Outnumbered,
Outsmarted, but not Outdone
There are a few things you could do when you are outnumbered
during a game of paintball. The first - do not panic.
The second, you must think – it is just a game.
Or is it?
The first thing to do is to select a team leader. After
that is done, it is the leader that teammates must rely
on when quick decisions have to be made.
The following are basic things that can be done when
you or your paint ball team feels that they have been
outnumbered in paintball.
Be on the defense:
Make sure that all of your paintball team mates are
placed near the boundary of the field so that the opposing
team will have little chance to sneak up on you. Next,
designate one to three players to patrol the field (the
number depends on your team’s size). Ask them
to patrol around the field, specifically looking for
an enemy and taking that enemy out. In case they notice
a group of the opposing team, and this group does not
notice them, this small patrol team must immediately
go back and advise the rest of the team the location
of the enemy.
The squad:
Make sure that if any enemy force is notice, and this
force is the size of a squad, a similar sized squad
should be dispatched to face the opposing team.
Lure them out:
The paint ball patrol should be sent out to attract
the opposing team and entice them to be defensive. However,
there is a risk when doing this as there is a possibility
that a member of the opposing team could escape and
be able to warn his own team mates. It is also a possibility
that it might not happen, and victory could just as
well be yours.
Ignore the enemy:
You could also make the choice to pretend that you
have not seen the opposing enemy. The idea is that,
if they did not see you, you are not a threat to them.
Get together everyone:
Make sure to gather all paintball members of your team
together then carefully, cautiously move up the side
of the field that you think is less likely to be utilized
by the opposing team. When you are there, try to hunt
the enemy force and strike the opposing team from that
side.
Basically, the best thing to do when outnumbered is
to relax. This makes thinking easier and the action
clearer.
