Recent advances is water battle technology include a device, essentially a loose sponge wrapped in lycra, which can be lobbed at one's opponent. Then it can be 'recharged' by squeezing is submerged in a bucket of water; several of these refill buckets can be placed around the battle area. Their re-charge capacity makes them superior to single use water balloons.
