Rules of Engagement

The Grass/Respawn:
You cannot shoot anyone who is around the respawn point. You cannot shoot out of the respawn point. You cannot step outside of the respawn point and immediately begin shooting... you must first head to your team's base.

Reloading:
You cannot at any time call "times" to reload. There is no stopping of the war for reloading. You must carry any extra ammo with you, or try and make it to the respawn point alive.

Rubber Knives:
To make a kill with a rubber knife you must "stab" someone center mass, above the waist line, and arms do not count. If the attacker with the knife says that he killed the attacked and the attacked disagrees, tie goes to the attacked.

BB Hits:
No matter how many times you are hit, it is one death/kill.

Gun Hits
If your gun is hit you must put it aside or sling it on your back...it is unusable for the rest of the war (battle.. not the rest of the day) and you must use your secondary weapon.

Surrender or Die/Safety Kill/Bang Bang Kill:
You can call this out, but if someone tries to turn on you, you are within your rights to mow em down. However, it is within the other player's rights to turn and try and mow you down.

Game Starts:
The game will begin when the air horn is sounded.

Dead Player:
Once you have been killed, you cannot give away any information and cannot give orders. You can give ammo to teammates as well as let them use your gun if you want.

Grenades (these rules apply only to grenades which do not fire bbs or release smoke):

A grenade must look like a grenade and be soft enough that it wouldn't hurt someone on impact, a modified tennis ball, for instance, is allowed. Email COA for pictures if you are unsure of what a modified tennis ball should look like. A grenade's killing radius is 15 feet from where it rolls to a stop. You cannot throw a grenade farther than your gun can shoot.

Blind Firing:
When firing your weapon you must have the butt of the gun against or close to your shoulder. You cannot poke your gun around a corner and just let loose with it. You must have a line of sight with your target.  You can poke your gun over a barrier and fire, but you have to have both hands of the gun.
