Summary: Pretty good book for painball basics, though highly outdated
Comment: I enjoyed the book very much. It is excellent for anybody who is starting thier first team or is rather new to the sport. Do realize that this book was written ORIGINALLY close to 10 years ago. The sport has dramatically changed and so has the equipment. A lot of the tactics in the book are still used today even by Professional teams. There are tactics in the book that are very outdated though with the advent of semi and full auto, direct fed paintball markers. Also, check with your local field about some of the rules of the game that Mr. Barnes mentions in his book. They may not be part of the game anymore. (IE: Red paint and yelling "Dead man" instead of "hit") Realise that paintball is a sport of teamwork, comraderie, and most of all, FUN! We do not condone war, death, or any other such terrible images that USED to be associated with our sport. (Circa early '80's) Thanks for the forum! Please note: I don't in any way think Mr. Barnes is condoning war in his book. It's just that paintball STARTED out as a survival game. It is not that way anymore

Summary: Excellent
Comment: The revised edition is excellent. Other than a few things that are out of date (e.g., charging is less effective now with semi-automatic markets than it was then with pumps), everything else is current and excellent advice for paintballers. Certainly worth the price of a couple hundred paintballs, for sure. Make sure to read this one and pass it on to your team.

Summary: Old, but still fun to read.
Comment: OK so it is really out dated, but I enjoyed reading it. It's not something that would get you ready for your next big tournament, but it has some great "rec ball" scenarios.
