| A trench system may be a little hard unless you have a friend who's dad owns some kind of bobcat otherwise it is going to take weeks for a couple of guys to build trenches what i would recomend is to dig about 3 feet down into the ground then put branches as more cover but try to make it look somewhat real just to give you more supprise. Also you want to mak about 2 for every one person who plays so that way you have somewhere to go if you need to and not to mention the enemy has no idea what ones have people in them and what ones don't. | |

| Well when your not using a foxhole during an airsoft war cover it up with a large laywood board , also post a bright orange flag around then , or the flag can be substituted with a stick and a bright hunter's orange hat stuck down onto the top of it . | |

| Actually trenches are not very hard if u have a shallow creek. My friend filled his creek with rocks( anysize) then over that he then put alot of dirt in. then put more rocks so he essentually had a trench run through his whole feild.
Unfortantly he did this for paintball. He also now doesnt play paintball anymore.
Anyway it is a really effective and easy way to make a trench. | |

| ya that could work only I bet the creek had put a fairly large crevis into the ground for him to do this. I would say if it isn't to deep then get a shovel and dig down some. The ground should be soft but make sure you make a way for the water to go either under or around the trench otherwise you may end up getting a little wet. | |

| you want to also make sure there is a 150 ft. buffer between the field and bystanders so no one who isn't playing gets hit. You can use flag tape and mark trees to indicate the borders | |

| oohhhhh, a creek, EXCELLENT! In the words of Colonel Hal. Moore, "That creekbed is vital, VITAL!!" What I did in my woods was set up positions all along the sides of the creek, so I can play some sort of fall-back game. (see my post on that). I gave you tips in my other post on my "pics of a recent match" topic, too. But think about that creek, you can do SO many things with it. | |

| yeah i want the creek in it because on one side of the course there is like a 10-12 foor high bank that you can set stuff up on top of, then once you cross the bridge by going throught the tunnels to the other side the bank it on the opposite side so its pretty cool. And the people who weren't playing would be either on the bridge or up the hill at my house but there is plenty of room for them and were making a rule that you can't use the top of th bridge you have to go through one of the three tunnels under it unless they have watter in them. | |
