Scout Out the Scout
This scenario game is perfect for anyone that wants to perfect their scouting and intel-reporting ability. Each side will play a normal game of capture the flag, or one of the many other games I describe in either of my books. The twist with this game, however, is that each side is given a scout.
The scouts are allowed five minutes before game start to go out into the field and find a good visual location from which they can report intel back to their team.
The scout should be equipped with both a radio and ghillie suit to help them stay hidden and keep in contact. The scout’s job is to relay back important information to their field commanders and try to stay hidden. After five minutes, the referees will announce the start of the game and all the other players can race out into the battlefield.
Play should be done as normal to a Capture the Flag game or any other scenario game you decide on. The catch, however, is also to look for the enemy scout and splat them out. The scout must
use the ghillie suit and natural camouflage to remain undetected while spying on enemy advancement.
Eliminating the scout shouldn’t be the main objective, but can be points added to the final score of the game. The remaining players should try to play the scenario game as though they’re not trying to solely
look for the opposing scout. This creates an atmosphere for better team practice of utilizing your scout in an actual tournament when the time arises.
It should be also noted that scouts can radio in the position of the opposing scout too, if they do happen to come across them. Good luck and good hunting!
Those are just some of the many scenario ideas I have. Many more are in my books. www.scenariopaintballbook.com (http://www.scenariopaintballbook.com/) if you want to check them out and order them.
