In addition to listed objectives, you may come across packets in the field labeled for each team listing secondary objectives / events for each team. These can range from hunting down a specific target to falling victim to chemical weapons and your entire squad (and everyone around you if you are with multiple squads, to return to re-spawn.
Each team may deploy a recon team of no more than 3 people 15 minutes prior to the game. They are only their to collect intel, set up an ambush, they may not capture any control points.
Medics:
Medic rules: All teams revive the same way. The medic must sit next to the downed player for 30 seconds and tie an Armband to that player. After the armband is tied, the player is now revived. This can be done on the same player up to 3 times. Armbands will be replensihed after each break.
If you are hit you may still talk but only to call for a medic. You may not give away another players position / Objective location.
General Rules:
1 Shot, you’re out. Failure to call hits is cheating!
Once you are out, walk back to your teams respawn, either put a kill rag on your head or put your rifle above you head to signal you are out
Talking while dead is cheating!
Respawns will occur every 10 minutes on the hour. A horn will sound the time to respawn. Respawning before the set time is cheating!
If you are not INSIDE your teams respawn when the repsawn horn is sounded, you have not respawned, you must wait for the next horn, if you do not hear a horn, go by your watch/ cell phone time.
Cheating will not be tolerated, nor will general statements about a team cheating be. (Ex: “The tan team is cheating!” or “They are cheating!”). If you see someone cheat, report that player to a host, ref or your commander. Be SPECIFIC about the cheater. Identify them as best as you can and they will be dealt with. First offense is a warning; second offense will result in that player being removed from play for the day. Each case will be reviewed by the hosts and all final decisions will be made by the host.
Our Wifi is unprotected. That being said. No excessive amounts of Porn during the nightime. I am only addressing this because it has been an issue. We are on satellite internet so our data cap is 10GB a month. Anything after 2:00am is OK though
