So, yeah. Im looking to improve my woods ball field, basicly its:
I - Trees o - Bushes _ - plain ground / - the litte fort

[Pixs will be up once i get battaries for my camra ninja ]

IoIoIoIo_______oo
ooooIooo__o_IIoIoIo__
IoIoIoIo_________IoIoI___
IoIoI_________

Its a all natural field, no human intervention.
basicly i want to give the attackers some more cover because the team that has the little base has a HUGE advantage, and i personally dont like that (i defend alot)so i figured I would make some little buckers to give the attackers somemore cover.
SIMPLIFIED:
I want ideas for bunkers to give the attackers so they can have a better chance of victory.



NOTES:
there is alot more to my woods then just that part, that is just the part that we use the most/ like the most.
ALSO: Those of you waiting for a sig, i am truly sorry, but the motherboard on my computer crashed[the one with PS on it], and for some retarded reason, i cant get photoshop on this computer

Take a trip to your local junk yard/Home Depo sometimes people throw out the best stuff on garbage day let your imagination go wild wink
Look for bald worn tires
Garbage Cans(Don't steal them)
Large pieces of ply wood, lay em against trees
SandBags
Christmas Decorations, lawn decorations...
Wooden Spools and Pallets some companies give the away.

Sometimes on garbage day people throw away desks, furniture, etc.

Obviously having a pickup truck would really help smile

I'd go with ChrisB said. These things can be attained pretty easy with little to no effort.

I'm not too sure about the area you live in but I live in a area where house developement is awlays going on. You might want to try to find some wood or other stuff in the dumpsters they use for useless pieces of stuff.

Also it might be possible to create a bunker out of just trees and stuff laying around the woods. They usally don't end up being the best bunkers to goto but they work. I wouldn't go tearing down good living trees and plants though just to do this.

Old tires make good bunkers.

You can even use them as stairs if a hill is too steep.

I agree with chirsb as well, goin to homedepot or lowes and seein what they toss out can prove helpeful for items to add to a paitnball field. pallets, stands, wheel spools (the kind u see electric crews working with.), slightly used lumber( u can use this for a variety of ways.) and so much more.

Just remember don't get things that are way too big and heavy you might need to move it around to mix up the field every now and then.

I work at a grocery store where we don't give away out skids and pallets but they are fairly easy to build. I can provide instructions if necessary, but their not that hard to build once you've seen one up close smile

Promise you'll get pics when the fields are finished, I love homebrew fields.

yeah, ill get pixts once i get some battaries(my camra dosnt take normal batteries), also me my friend and my dad went to home depo and got some PCP pipe, tarp, and some old wooden fence things.
Me and my dad made some rearangeable bunkers with the pcp and tarp so if we wanted to make different style bunkers and move them around, it would be super easy, and because fence things are heavy

PS: there slowly deforesting my main playing area, so i might not beable to even use it soon. but i got like 2 more so it dosnt matter.
