Grenades and Pyro

Approved pyro will depend on Op location. Prior to each op we will release which pyro will be accepted at the location. If you are hit from any of the discharge from the pyro you are dead. If you are within 15 feet of a grenade you are dead unless you are behind hard cover.

PPE

ANSI 787.1 rated eye protection that “contours to your face” accepted “Full seal” encouraged.

Dead rag

Users must have a dead rag of Bright Red at least 10”X10” and if playing in low light conditions, a red dead light or red illumination is required.

Medic Rules

Milsim Tourniquets and Ace bandages are acceptable forms of being "medic'd"

When hit, Players may only call out Medic.

Dead men don't talk! 5 Minute bleed out time. Dead players must return to Spawn and touch FOB Flag to be able to respawn back in the game if they bleed out or used maxed medic kits.

Hit Calling and Player Conduct

Players are expected to immediately and honestly call their hits. Unsportsmanlike conduct, aggressive behavior, or intentional rule violations will not be tolerated. Remember it's just a game, you will have more respect for calling your hit, than not calling it.

Age Limits

This will depend on the location. Some locations will allow younger players, some have a minimum age limit. For Each Op we will post the minimum age limit.

Team Factions

We wanted to make this simple and affordable. CSF (Coalition of Sovereign Forces) will consist of all camo patterns excluding solid colors, black camo patterns, gray camo patterns, and white camo patterns. The BMD (Black Market Directorate) will consist of civilian attire, black camo, gray camo, or white camo. Head gear and face mask must match your team colors, this gear may be solid for CSF team. Admin and photographers will be in bright colored staff shirts or Red. DO NOT shoot the photographers! They are there to take photos of you. We do not want to break their equipment.

Player Searches

The enemy player must be able to touch the dead or captured player and will say “I am searching you.” At that moment Searched player must provide Any Physical Intel they have on their person

UAV’s

While we understand that in the real world UAV’s are a real part of war, Due to some of our locations of play we do not allow the use of UAV’s as part of Game play at this time. Some locations, typically private owned facilities we will allow the use of UAV's and will address them for each Op they will be allowed to use them in.
