A New Kind of Paintball?

Here's an email I got from Mikhail, which touches on something I've been thinking about for some time. I'm not so presumptive to think Rangerball is completely unique (there are probably other "milsim" groups doing similar things), but I do think we've touched on something that lots of paintballers are craving.

"I think this is the beginning of a new division in the paintball world. There exists now speedball, recball and scenario ball. There is some play out there of military-style games but it is really small-scale. Rangerball is the key to getting a crossbreed of all styles. It incorporates using speedball tactics in one area, with the slower pace of recball in others. All with using a tactical, military type approach. I think charging a fee is a good idea for certain events that are on the larger side, although from now on they all may be larger scale. A regimental due I believe is a good idea. The $20 tag I think might be on the low side, I was thinking more in the $30-40 range. It is a discussion point that we will all have to agree upon. The word IS getting out and as time goes on Rangerball will grow into the next generation of paintball. This is going to be big. I will see you on the beach!"

Any thoughts from you others?
