While being "dead" does add realism, it would suck for someone to get popped in the first 5 minutes and have to sit out for the rest of the time.

i would think there is a small segment of scenario ballers that may go for this level of realism.

When I got out of the military, I moved to havelock nc. I ran the Marine Base paintball field there. One of my side jobs was running training exercises for military personnel using paintball equipment. At that time, the usmc felt that tippman prolite was the most accurate display of the feel and fit of an m16. What they used was every other trooper had a real 16 shooting blanks with the barrelblocker attached. So this also gave the feel of actual weapons being fired at you. They felt if you get hit you are out of the fight one way or another so gun hit or otherwise the fight is over for you. Yes there are many stories of a trooper fighting on long after his injuries but 90% dont keep moving even though the injury is not life threatening.

Most of these individual exercises did not last for more than a few hours. The bulk of it being neither foe engaging the other

The whole event would last about 20 hours.

Marines would arrive, go out and set up a firebase, kit up prepare defensive positions, send out patrols, and prepare the firebase for whatever it's purpose might be(ie communications array, forward radar, observation post, medstation etc....)Most the training was doing the previous.

An opforce would be made up of senior personnel and personnel who had been involved in actual engagements whenever possible.

The opforce would engage minor raids to test the perimeter and would attempt to ambush patrols.

They use smoke grenades as real grenades, and they allowed one full 200 rd hopper as ammo, seeing that it is easier to reload an assault rifle than a paintball gun, the time difference being insignificant. But after every 20 shots they had to call out reloading and pause for a moment/take cover.

And well that is how the marines would go about the event. There are many many more details, which if ya want more info I may be able to give more info

This would be the bomb of a senario / simulation format. The more realistic the better. I do agree that for someone to get hit right out of the gate would suck, but I think hit players could be reinserted as replacements depending on the script for the simulation. Regardless I would like this format.

yea i thought like if you get shot within the first few hours than you can get reinserted but it would be a cool thing to do and play.

but you would probably be playing on some big land if someone did that.
