This game is ideal for Corporate Teambuilding and strategy planning. Each team starts from an opposing end of the field. There are four flags, one controlled by each team and two neutral ones, each worth 500 points to the team that controls it. The game ends when time runs out OR when one team controls all flags. There are also numerous moneybags, marked with various denominations of money totaling $8,000.00. Only the money bags controlled by the team at their starting flag base will count toward the team's point total. Money bags in transit (in a team member's possession, but not at the base) will not count. If a player is eliminated while in possession of a money bag, he or she will drop the bag at the location they were eliminated. The moneybag can then be retrieved and put back into play by either team. The amount of money secured at the end of the game is added to the team's score. The team with the most points is the winner.
All points accumulated during the game session are added to the points from previous games. A team can prevent the opposition from "stealing" their money bag accumulation by ending the game through flag control. Since controlling all the flags is worth only 2,000 points, it is up to the team members to determine if it is in their best interest to stop the game by gaining control of all flags, either as an offensive or a defensive measure.
A normal game session consists of four games. Points are cumulative. Because of the varying point amounts for the money bags, a team could technically win the game, but still come up short in overall points.
If you choose to use additional cowboy games and casino games, points can be awarded to teams for those events as well and added to cumulative team scores for an overall winner for the day. Group members not playing Paintball still help their team out by accumulating points at the casino and other cowboy games in addition to Paintball points. This adds a new dimension to the strategic play of the game.
