First idea: fill your own paintball pellets with dust for dust shots or a teensy bit of gun powder for spark shots.
The Major Paintball Mine-Fill Smoke Simulation Powder. It is used in most mines to simulate the effect of smoke following mine detonation.
Second idea, set of non-launching fireworks or firecrackers remotely:
20' of regular slow burning cannon fuse. Burn rate = about 21 seconds per foot. $5.00
Pack comes with 10 connectors. lay fuses inside the grippers, fold it, and you have a solid connection. So all you have to do is light one use and you can have a whole line of things go off. $2.50 a pack.
We could use the fuse and connector with small fireworks, hide them under dirt, and watch them go off as if it were a rain of gunshots hitting the floor.
We could fuse some firecrackers together for some safer sparking action:
$0.25 for a pack of 12
jumping jacks, strip of 100. 6 long strips of jumping jacks. $6.00
Another thought is to add elements in the set that show damage to things, like smoke:
The Sport Smoke PB-200 smoke bomb is designed for the paintballer and hobbyist alike. Both compact and affordable, the PB-200 is the most affordable Smoke Bomb, and is ideal for many applications.

I'm going to have to test these thoughts out before we get to set. And I'll certainly be posting the video here once I do :-)
