Tactical Paintball Championship
Tactical Paintball Championship (TPC) is a Malaysian tactical and woodsball paintball tournament series documented in 2011 and 2012. The series held competitions at several Malaysian paintball venues, with individual event results and an overall season classification. Its organisers described 2012 as its second year.[1][2]
Format
[edit]The organiser's published format allowed seven players on the field and three reserves per team. Teams competed to capture a centre flag and hang it at a receiving station near the opposing team's starting base within seven minutes.[1]
The format specified three open-class electronic markers and four tactical markers per team. Field layouts varied between venues.[1]
At the 2012 finale, a separate Maverick division was introduced for newer players. It used five-player teams, five-minute games and mechanical or rental markers.[7]
