Musketball is a popular paintball game with the old school players, where players are prohibited from using any kind of feeders or loaders in their markers. In the game of musket-ball, players must load one paintball into the breach after each shot. While in paintball games today, players with the most money to spend can sometimes have a distinct advantage on the field, as they can shoot paintballs so fast it is easy to get overwhelmed. Players with an unlimited supply of paint and markers like the RPG Paradigm Classic from The Mag Smith can lay down up to 30 paintballs a second. With so much paint to shoot, a player can sometimes shoot their way out of deficiencies in their game by simply firing so many rounds per second. For players with pumpguns or stockguns that fire 1-3 bps, they simply have not chance.
Musket-ball is a cool paintball game that levels the playing field, where everyone is playing using the same technology. In a game like musketball, players must try to make every shot count, and players must be excellent shooters for their shots to be effective. In markers like the UF-Tactical by Worr Game Products, players can shoot rapidly enough to see where the paintballs are going and to adjust their aim accordingly. In musket-ball players do not have this advantage because they must fie accurately on their first shot. The name of the game, Musketball comes from the real fire arm, the musket, which was a firearm used in the Revolutionary War, and is still used for hunting today. The musket was a fire arm that also used a sphere-shaped projectile that would be fired once before another musketball had to be loaded into the chamber. The paintball game musket-ball is a fun game where the winner is not simply the one that fires the most paint.
