3 Introduction Welcome to Blind Fury 13 I would first like to say thank you for joining us. Throughout the years, the series went from a small battle to a full battalion war. Many players joined the series. The field went from a basic wood game to full environment combat zone including woodland, hills, villages and even towns. Regardless if you are joining us for the first time or you have played one or more events in the series, you will have no problem to fitting in. First of all, let me offer you one very important piece of advice: This is a MilSim (Military Simulation) style event and Chain-of-Command is critical. Listen to your leaders and follow their directives. Team unity will make a HUGE difference in the field. As an organizer, my only function is to provide you with the location, props and scenarios. Mission failure or success will depend on YOU. Work together and this event will be enjoyable and memorable. The document you are reading is the official, fully detailed, Player Kit. Although it might look very intimidating, it is basically what you ve already read on except that it includes more details on each topic. I have made every effort to provide you with all the information you will need to participate in this event. Come prepared and if something STILL doesn t make sense, please feel free to contact me for further clarification. Good luck to all of you and may the best team win! Regards, Francois Blade Crepeau Organizer of OP. Blind Fury 13 Springfield, Ohio

4 Chapter 1: Event details 1.1 AO Sanitation Hidden Spring Ranch field is graciously provided by Mr. Bud Hilliard, owner of several businesses in the area. Mr. Hilliard allows several other recreational activities to be held on his land and we, as a self-disciplined airsoft community, need to constantly remind him of how much we appreciate his support. One easy way of doing this is to maintain a clean and safe environment. All players are responsible for their own conduct toward the environment. Pick up your trash, respect Mr. Hilliard s personal property on site and don t harass the farm animals. An AO (Area of Operation) like this is VERY difficult to find and your cooperation will ensure further good relations with the owner. Springfield will have Porto-potty and trash cans available on site. We require all players to do their business in the Porto potty and bring their own toilet paper.just in case of emergency. I think we are all old enough to know how to get it done, right? While it is just porto-potties, it would be nice to keep them clean all day long. No electricity or running water is available on site! Be prepared with car chargers and fresh water. Players will be allowed to use soap but please leave any other cleaning agents at home. Oil, window cleaner, grease, bleaching water, antifreeze and gasoline should not be spilled in the field. These chemicals are toxic to the farm animals. We EXPECT all players to pick up their bottles, bags, boxes or any other trash from within the AO and staging areas. You can accumulate all trash in a specific area of your FOB (Forward Operating Base) but it would be appreciated if by the end of the day, players would help bring their trash back at the staging area for a single trash pick-up. Please leave the field cleaner than it was when we arrived. 1.2 BDU (Battle Dress Uniform) and Gear Each team has a choice of several BDU patterns. We do believe in friendly fire incidents and Identification requirements; we offer as many BDU choices as possible, while keeping the team color division as easy as possible. Team TAN is allowed to wear any Light patterns below. No Other patterns or colors allowed. Desert Desert Despat / Desert Desert Cadpat ACU MC Arid 3 Colors 6 Colors AOR1 Tiger DPM Arid Team GREEN is allowed to wear the dark patterns below. No Other patterns allowed. Woodland Marpat / Subdued Vietnam Berezka Flektarn Flora Cadpat AOR2 Tiger Tiger 4

5 Team McBeardy boys (Jonah) is allowed to wear any solid colors and/or civilian clothes. No Other patterns allowed (not even partially). RED/Orange Shirt are reserved for the staff. Headgear does not have to match your assigned team colors. Tactical gear does not have to match the BDU colors as long as the vest does not cover your BDU pattern beyond recognition. Ghillie suits are authorized. The color doesn t matter but any other clothes underneath shall match your team patterns/colors unless the ghillie suit covers the whole body and is not removed during battle. You can carry as much gear as you want. Please make sure to mark all of your equipment. Marked items are much more likely to be returned to the proper owner(s) if they end up in the Lost/Found. Players caught stealing another person s property will be dealt with extreme prejudice. Consequences range from immediate field expulsion to law enforcement involvement. 1.3 Check-in & Chronograph procedure The field owner will strictly regulate access through the check-in gate. All players MUST stop and check in with the field owner and a member of the staff before entering the staging area. This is a closed event. If your name does not appear on the official roster, you will NOT be allowed on the premises. No visitors and spectators allowed. Check-in Upon your arrival, you will stopped by a first guard. He will then control your paperwork. Please make sure both waivers are properly filled prior to your arrival (see appendix 7 for waivers). You will then drive to the 2nd gate where you will be stopped by our security unit. They will take your waivers and direct you toward your staging location. At that point, do not waste time and park with your team. See Appendix #3 for the staging area map. Chrono procedure After parking your vehicle, take your weapons (battery included), one loaded magazine per weapon and go to the chrono station. Upon arrival to the chrono booth, your magazine will be top off with either 0.20g bbs (AEG) or 0.30g bbs (GBB) and few rounds will be shot thru the chrono. EACH guns must follow the FPS/Joule limitation. Failing to meet the requirement will disqualify your weapon for play until you modify and re-chrono that said weapon. See also chapter

6 As soon as your weapon(s) is(are) chronographed and approved, your weapon will get tagged and the FPS/Joule will be logged. BE READY to be spot-checked during play. 1.4 Communication Channels and Equipment Springfield is known to create communication issues due to its size and terrain. We strongly recommend players to use good quality radios as they generally give a better signal. Be prepared to relay messages across the field. Even if you are not a dedicated RTO on your squad/team, having a radio is ALWAYS better if you want to regroup after respawn or if you get lost. Each team has dedicated channels for their FRS radios. Unless specified by the mission, frequency monitoring will not be allowed or tolerated. Any player caught monitoring other channels will be expelled and a warning given to his affiliated team. Teams are responsible for their own radio traffic. Keep communications brief and to the point. FRS Channel #1 EMERGENCY/Admin FRS Channel #2 reserved. FRS Channel #3 Green Team FRS Channel #4 Green Team FRS Channel #5 Green Team FRS Channel #6 Green Team FRS Channel #7 Tan Team FRS Channel #8 Tan Team FRS Channel #9 Tan Team FRS Channel #10 Tan Team FRS Channel #11 Civilian (Jonah) FRS Channel #12 Civilian (Jonah) FRS Channel #13 Civilian (Jonah) FRS Channel #14 Civilian (Jonah) GMRS Channel #15 Green Team GMRS Channel #16 Green Team GMRS Channel #17 Green Team GMRS Channel #18 Tan Team GMRS Channel #19 Tan Team GMRS Channel #20 Tan Team GMRS Channel #21 Civilian GMRS Channel #22 Civilian 6

7 While the event does not support VHF channels, they are allowed for your private use as long as you have proper usage licenses. 1.5 Driving direction The links below are the general driving directions. Players should easily find the field with these links. If not, has a good map feature. You just need to select the driving selection tab and enter both your starting point and the field address (4624 Dayton Springfield RD, Springfield, OH, 45502) From East of Springfield (from Columbus ) From West of Springfield (from Indiana ) From North of Springfield (from Cleveland ) From South of Springfield (from Cincinnati ) You can also refer to Appendix #15 for an overview of the field location. 1.6 Event End (Endex) The battle is scheduled to finish at 1200pm on Sunday. DO NOT FORGET to clean and discard any trashes in your parking/staging spots. A dumpster will be available at the entrance of the field. Schedule change will be called by the staff/organizers depending on weather conditions. 1.7 Event style details This event is based around a Milsim (Military Simulation) system. We all know that many players/organizations hold different views on what should be considered Milsim. We wanted to offer something that was both enjoyable but also stricter than standard events. This event will focus more on accomplishing mission objectives than on how many kills you will get on your kill-card during the weekend. Our Milsim events use a Chain-of -Command, which MUST be respected by all players. We also use mission oriented scoring, limited magazine capacities, a medic system, non-stop game play and last but not least, the honor system. 1.8 Field details (staging area structure) The staging area has been divided by sectors. Each teams will get their own sectors for both camping and parking (left after gate #2). Food and vendor concessions will be on your right after the gate #2. Please follow the staff direction. 1.9 Field History Hidden Ranch field consists of 250 acres of woods, hills, open fields, creeks and trails. It is almost 1 mile long and ½ mile wide in some areas. This event will utilize most of the acreage. The field is mainly used for ATVs and few years ago, paintball. Since its introduction to airsoft in 2003, Springfield has been the theater of many battles, drawing from 30 to 510 players. There are many natural places to hide, ambush and take cover. This field is known to be physically demanding. In 2007, wooden structures began popping up to enhance game play. Since then, more than 30 buildings have been added including a 84x32 shoothouse, a 60x120 cafeteria as well as multi-floor buildings. 7

8 1.10 Items to bring. While we can t force you to bring anything beside the mandatory items, we can strongly recommend a list of items that you will need on and off the field; - Proper BDU (mandatory). - Approved goggles ANSI Z87.3 with strap and full sealed (Mandatory). - Spare goggle lens. - A good FRS radio. - Anti-Fog products. - Combat or hiking boots. - Spare clothes and shoes. - Flashlight (for evening game and campers). - Red Glowstick (Mandatory for night game) - 2 red rag (one spare). - A map of the field. - Sleeping gear (for those camping) - 2 to 5 gallons of water (Mandatory). - AEG Battery charger (need to be useable on car). - Signed waiver. See appendix #7 (Mandatory if not already provided once during the ongoing year) Personal safety equipment. Organizers will monitor all players throughout the day and we expect each player to police themselves as well as their teammates. As with every other Springfield event, only ANSI 87.3 rated goggles will be allowed in the field. Goggles also have to be full sealed and retained by a strap. NO MESH GOGGLES ALLOWED. Few examples of allowed goggles. Few examples of not allowed goggles. 8

9 It is recommended to use a full face mask, but it is not mandatory. Teeth protection (i.e. mouth guard) is also a good item to carry around. Combat or hiking boots are recommended as well. This is MilSim, No running shoes! We also recommend all civilians to wear long sleeve tops and full pants to avoid scratches, bruises, bug bites and poison ivy. Knee pads are a must Physical and mental requirements. Many of you have played at Springfield before and you already know the type of field you are getting into. I planned the event so you shall be physically and mentally exhausted by the time the event ends. Obviously, some players will handle it better than others. For those not in good physical shape, stretch before your deployment. It will save you some pain later on. Estimate your loadout properly. Being too heavy will not help you and will be your downfall during the afternoon. Some objectives will be in the sun most part of the day. Make sure to hydrate and take some time in the shade. Water will save your day. Water supplies are now mandatory at the field. Failure to bring enough water will most likely get you carried off the event with heat exhaustion. Taking short breaks will help. A food concession will be available on site if you ever need to get more supply. This event will use a Chain-of-Command system. It might involve high rank officers or simply squad leaders. In all cases, you, the player, have to follow the orders. Failure to do so will probably make you regret being there. The Chain-of-Command is usually selected from veteran/trusted players and it s up to you to follow their commands whether they are right or wrong. If you disagree with command decisions, sign up to take their place next year and MAYBE you ll do better. If you want to play on your own, you will most likely end up wondering what the heck the event was all about. So stay focused, follow the plans (if any) and you should know what/why things happened the way they do during the event Raffle. Since the beginning of the Blind Fury series, we have been trying to keep the raffle to the minimum. The whole reason behind it is to keep the players focused on the event experience rather than what they could win Real emergencies and accidents. Local authorities are aware of this event and Paramedics will be on alert for us. We will also have first-aid kit and medical equipment on hand. Several attending players also have the training to assist if needed. Please take the time to inform your relatives of what you will be doing and where you will be during the weekend. Consequently, the FRS channel #1 is available for all real life emergencies. 9

All waivers (2) can be found at appendix #7 NOTE: Those who gave their 2015 waivers at earlier events do not need to fill a new waiver. Although, providing new waivers will cut the waiver verification process time and will get you moving faster. 11

Windows must remain 100% opened or closed. No window rolling or cracking allowed. Approved shooting method. Non-approved shooting method. A mounted weapon is a weapon solidly attached to the vehicle via a metal support/bracket. The support must be fixed to the vehicle either by bolts, screws or welding spots. Simply said, a piece of wood and a vice-grip is not considered in any ways a solid attachment for a mounted weapon. A broken mounted weapon can be replaced or repaired and CANNOT be substituted for an un-mounted weapon. NOTE: Yes we know, in real life, everyone could shoot the way they want. Unfortunately for airsoft, we have more limitations. Usage/Class A vehicle can be used for transport of troops and/or material. It can also simulate gunships or recon element. Vehicle can only be used for one purpose throughout the day. Players are allowed to use the vehicle as cover as long as the vehicle owner allows it and the vehicle distances are respected. Note: Rocket shooters and/or drivers/passenger might have to walk to the vehicle to acknowledge/confirm the hit. Don't shoot bbs at the vehicle itself. You will simply waste your ammo and risk to damage the vehicle for no reasons. Transport Any vehicles carrying troops or equipment without mounted weapons. Driver and passengers rules apply. Recon/FAV Any light vehicles without armor. Limit of one gun per vehicle. Driver and gunner rules apply. Tank/Gunship Any heavy armored vehicle with mounted weapons.

Ground troop can t fire their weapon while in the vehicle. Maximum of 6 ground troop per vehicle. Refueling Throughout the day, all vehicles must be refueled. Each driver will have a stopwatch at their disposal. Everytime a vehicle will reach the refinery or an oil drum, the driver will be authorized to reset their stopwatch. The specific time to have on the stopwatch is 60min. If the stopwatch reach 60min without being refueled, the vehicle must stop on the spot until a barrel is brought to the vehicle for refuel. A vehicle is considered refueled when standing 10ft from a barrel or the refinery and the stopwatch is reset. Repairing process (uses a rope): 1. Upon reaching a disabled vehicle, the combat engineer must tie a knot on the vehicle's death rope and count 120sec with both hands on. 2. If a combat engineer needs to remove his hands from the vehicle during the process, he doesn't have to re-tie the knot but simply start the 120sec count over. 3. An engineer can tie a maximum of 3 knots on the rope. At the 4 th disabling hit, the vehicle can t be repaired anymore and must go to the respawn area. 4. If an engineer would have to reach a vehicle who doesn t have a rope, he will give to the driver a spare rope and tie 3 knots, which is the penalty to the vehicle/driver for not securing his rope properly Medic and respawn procedures Hit calling procedure (see images below): 1. When hit, the player MUST STOP MOVING and display his red rag (death rag) as soon as possible to avoid/limit follow-up shots. 2. The wounded player can yell/call for a medic. 3.

The wounded players CANNOT help the medic in any possible ways (i.e. no talking, no physical help). 3. When acquired, the tourniquet need to get fully extended and unwrapped. 4. Then, the tourniquet must be place at the left shoulder / arm junction and then wrapped using the Velcro. 5. If the tourniquet is already placed on the left arm, the medic can fully unwrapped the tourniquet and repeat the procedure above on the right arm. 6. If the tourniquet is already placed on the right arm, the wounded player is Considered dead. The medic must remove and placed the tourniquet back in the player s bag/pouch. 7. The dead player can now move to the CCP/Respawn area. Movement and covering: - Wounded player can walk only while escorted by one live player. - Wounded player can jog only while escorted by two live players. - Escorting players can t shoot at the same time. They must stop moving, shoot(s) and resume the move. - Unless in a dangerous location/position (i.e. middle of a battle or tip of a cliff), a wounded player is not authorized to move alone. - If wounded players don t want to be used as shield, they must tell the players around them. Respawn point(s) - There will be fixed regen/respawn point in the field. - Do not camp respawn point(s). - The fight is on as soon as you get off the respawn point(s). - Keep your goggles on in the respawn area(s). - Keep the respawn point(s) as clean as it was when you got there. The reality of being hit - Regardless how loud you yell hit, you will most likely get hit again. - Regardless how big or bright is your red rag (death rag), you will get hit again. - If there are players standing around you, expect to get shot.again. - No mouth/mask guard = risk losing a tooth or more. - Want to save tooth/teeth? Wear the mouth/mask guard or keep your mouth shut Player conduct and attitude. Blind Fury is about recreating a battlefield experience. Where you may be confused on a particular rule, simply ask. Likewise please make any personal decisions on behavior and gear based on your role and in the larger context of the storyline. There are few common and basic behavioral rules; - Foul language will not be tolerated. Not everyone thinks cussing and yelling is cool; keep it to yourself. - Physical contact of an aggressive nature will not be tolerated. Players involved in any physical aggression will be expelled, banned or turned over to local authorities. - We are all friends. Always take care (physically and mentally) of the other players, friend or foe. If you have any doubts about a player, don t be shy to ask if he needs assistance, even if it is just for some water. Be alert for any kind of medical emergencies such as bee stings, de-hydration, exhaustion, etc. 19

20 - This sport is about honesty and respect. If you lack in any of the two, you might as well stay out of this event and change sport. There will be specific players wearing the field official patch and/or the red staff t-shirt/ballcap throughout the field. They will be watching for troublemakers, check-spot weapon FPS/Joule, etc. If they stop you and give you an explanation, a warning or any other penalizing orders, don t take it as a joke because your team and ultimately YOU, will suffer from it Player conflict in the AO. If you witness a conflict, issue, incident or physical altercation and can t diffuse or resolved the situation in the spirit of the event, referees and officials are available immediately on Channel 1. Before getting involved or walking away, please take the player callsigns and report them to a field official/staff. Under no circumstances should a conflict be handled with violence (physical or mental). No matter who started the issue, both players will be expelled from the field and will not be invited back. Furthermore, the affiliated team will also receive a warning, meaning they will be on high scrutiny from that moment on. A second incident will expel the whole team from the field. Field privileges will also be suspended Bang Bang. - Surrender/Freeze are not mandatory. - A Bang bang is not mandatory BUT can be given under full and total control of the situation. You can bangbang: - Within 10ft of your opponent. - No more than 2 players at a time. - When you are in total control of the situation and your enemy will have no chance to fire back. - Your weapon is functional (i.e. you can t bangbang because you have a gun defect or empty mag) No need to say, you can't bang bang on your way into buildings. As stipulated above, if you are not in full control and the player in front of you know you are coming or expect you to come, you are not in control and shall not bangbang the player Blind Firing and point blank shooting. Blind firing is when you can't see where and what your barrel is pointing at. You do not need to have a target in your sight to be able to shoot. As long as you see where your bbs are going and your eyesight is not obstructed, you are authorized to shoot. Do not stick your barrel through holes where you have no clear view on your target. Point blank shooting is when you are in very short range of your opponent. While not illegal, we strongly recommend players to not shoot point blank on purpose. If truly needed (such as in CQB), use your sidearm or aim for the lower body parts. Point blank is hazardous and can be dangerous. Players found abusing this rule will be expelled from the AO without refund or any sort of compensation. 20

21 Perfect bang bang opportunity Buildings. It is very important that all players understand the basic building rules. They are there to make sure everyone in and around the buildings will not do something stupid. Follow these rules if you don t want to be in trouble. - Do not push/throw anyone off the 2nd/3rd floor. - Do not push/throw anyone from the stairs. - Do not repel from 2nd/3rd floor. - Do not lean over the 2nd/3rd floor walls. - No more than 6 person per secondary floors and 2 per third floors. - We simulate that all buildings have roof tops, no shooting (grenades, bbs or rockets) through the roofs Night gaming. While playing in the dark can be challenging and exciting, it is also bringing hazardous conditions that nobody should neglect to prepare for. Priority #1 is to be able to see and be seen. Your goggles must maintain the same level of protection than during the day gaming but also need to be as fog free as possible since such issue is much more probable and frequent at night. Make sure to have spare batteries if you are running a fan system and make sure to have antifog products if you do not have any cooling system in place. Red glowsticks or light is used at night to replace the red rag. No other colors should be used to display your dead status. Any other glowsticks or light color shall be used for identification purposes. Night visions, flood lights and flashlights(mandatory) are allowed. There are no restrictions on model or power (or generation). Mandatory items at night: - Flashlight. - Red glowstick/chemlight. NO LASER ALLOWED UNLESS LOWER THAN CLASS 2 To complement the players own preparation for the night game, the field will have illuminated trails. Field staff will have a combination of strobe lights on their helmet allowing you to find them easily. The area might possibly have flood lights turned on. 21

22 2.18 Camp fires, grills and generators. Players are allowed to have their own fire in the staging area BUT it must be done in a safe manner. NO accelerant (i.e. gasoline) allowed at any given time. Your fire should be done in a clear and dry area where the risk to start a fire (including the forest canopy) are non-existent Recreational vehicles(rv), tents and other campers. While you are allowed to bring your camping vehicles and trailers, please keep in mind that you have to share the field with other players and campers. - Park in an area where you will not block other player s vehicle to go in and out. - Don t let your generator run all night. - There are no power outlets. Plan accordingly. 22

23 Chapter 3: Roles 3.0 Role limitation Unless specified, players can t fulfill two(2) roles simultaneously. For example, a Support gunner (SG) cannot be a medic. Not having double role players allow us to have a fair role distribution throughout the teams and not getting super mega squad and poor squads. Team limitations Support Gunner: 1 per 4 man Medic: 1 per 12 man Grenadier: 1 per 12 man Combat engineer: 1 per 12 man Recon: 2x 2man OR 1 squad (12man) Snipers/Marksman: 1 per 24 man Para-jumpers: Not allowed at all for BF Rifleman (RM) The rifleman (i.e. infantryman or grunt) is the core of most armed forces around the world. In airsoft, we like to keep it basic. A rifleman can carry anything but the specialized weapon such as the SAW or a grenade launcher. If he does, he becomes a specialized role player. He has no weight or load-out limitations. He also follows the regular medic, ammo and magazine rules/restrictions. 3.2 Support Gunner (SG) The SG is the guy holding the big toys. Anything considered a support weapon is allowed for him. Some example are the M60, M249, RPK, HK21, MG36, etc. The airsoft replica must mimic the real steel counterpart as much as possible (i.e. optics are usually not considered). Such guns allow the use of drum, box or C mags but also high capacity magazines. The support weapons are the only replicas allowing the use of high cap magazines. The SG can t carry 2 specialized weapons or fulfill two roles at the same time. For example, a saw gunner can t be a medic. 3.3 Designated Marksman (DM) While the use of snipers and DMs in airsoft are questionable, we still have to define what they can do for us. In airsoft, the DM is the player running around with a semi-auto rifle able to shoot up to 450fps. His job is to provide longer range and accurate fire on the enemy. His weapon must have the full auto selection mechanically disabled. The DM is usually attached to a squad but we are not enforcing it so far, which mean DM can easily go on its own when needed. Like the Support gunner, the DM can t carry 2 specialized weapons or perform 2 roles simultaneously. 23

24 3.4 Grenadier (HW) The HW guy is the one with all the loud gadgets. M203, M79, AT4, claymore, he got them all. For airsoft, he is the one in charge of the rockets and shower shells. Only him can carry the approved rockets (i.e. Nerf rockets). He has no limitation on the number of 40mm shell to carry but can t have more than 4 rockets. As the rockets are not re-usable in the same scenario, he must go back to the armory to get more or to regen his 4 rockets. The HW can carry a launcher and a regular carbine/rifle. He can t carry any other specialized weapon (i.e. a SAW) and can t do dual roles. 3.5 Medic As much as you all want to be important in the battlefield, no one is more in demand and loved than a medic. When a medic system is in place, he is the only one that can save your life quickly. Please see the medic rules section 2.11 for more details. The medic can t do dual role during the event. The medic can t be swapped during the same scenario unless there are real medical issues. Note: See PJ for an advanced medic alternative. 3.6 Squad Leader (SL) The Squad leader is the player in charge of the squad. His first obligation is to keep the squad focused on the objective and also informed on what is going on. He will be the one taking the good and the bad decisions at the squad level. He is receiving his orders by his own superior. At most events, it will be the commander (CO) giving him what to do but depending on the size of the event, it could be the platoon leader (PL), the executive officer (XO) and then the CO. The SL is allowed to have more than one role. The only thing to keep in mind is to be effective, the SL must be able to stay focused on his personal duties. 3.7 Recon The airsoft recon is basically a fireteam or a squad of players dedicating their time for intel gathering. While they can still fight like everyone else, their main purpose is to be the eyes and ears of the team. The recon player is not limited in gear or weapons. 3.8 Pararescue Jumper (PJ) The airsoft PJ is essentially a double-duty player. His primary duty is medic. His second is up to him. Simply said, the PJ player is allowed to do two roles, which is the only player allowed. So for a squad of PJ, that would be a regular squad format (i.e. SG, HW,etc) added to 12 medics (each member of the squad can heal). 24

25 3.9 Sniper The airsoft sniper serves 2 purposes: Recon and creating fear amongst the enemy. His weapon of choice is a bolt action rifle and loves to go out with a ghillie suit. It is to be known that snipers and DM should be seen as two different entity. The DM being more squad oriented compared to the Sniper, which will usually be deployed alone with his spotter. The sniper is allowed to a high power bolt action rifle and can t have other roles Contractors (PMC) The airsoft contractor is the politically correct name for mercenary. While their range of action vary from country to country or team to team, the main thing with PMCs is they get paid to do a very specific job/contract. Since the job is usually lucrative, the PMC are not limited in weapons or gear Mercenaries The good ol mercenary. Ready to kill his neighbor for money. The mercenary is the bastard word (and original) for a paid contractual soldier. He will pretty much accomplish the same thing than the PMC Combat Photographer This role is reserved to those who prefer to shoot from a camera than shooting from a gun. This photographer is dressed like his team affiliation to blend in better Radio Operator (RTO) To keep in touch with the chain of command, it is crucial to not only have a good radio equipment but also be able to receive and transmit effectively and quickly. This is where the RTO role takes its importance. The RTO is usually very close to the SL. He will be the one transmitting to the higher officer or relaying information from higher command to the SL. The RTO has no gear or weapons restrictions. The RTO should have a reliable communication system and in most cases, have 2 radios, one for squad channel and the other one for the leadership channel. 25

26 3.14 Combat Engineer (CE) The CE is in charge of everything related to building and rebuilding equipment or any other logistical needs in the field. For example, the CE will be carrying the C4 charges to destroy the refinery while the enemy s CE will be the one fixing it after its destruction. The CE is also able to fix vehicles in the field. Number of missions requiring a CE are limited. Number of CE available per event is limited as well Commander/General (CO) The most valuable person in the leadership group, the CO is the player mastering the battlefield. It is crucial for the CO to be able to adapt and react rapidly. The most important thing is to be able to take decisions, good or bad. The CO can carry weapons and have no gear limitation but generally speaking, he will stay in the back of the battlefield, guarded by few men and will lead from there. Last thing you need is to lose your CO during the battle Executive Officer (XO) The XO is the middle man between the CO and the squad leaders. He is the one relaying the information back and forward and can act as the CO replacement if needed. He is acting like the Co-pilot. No weapons or gear restrictions Civilian A civilian is described as a player without a military affiliation. While he can be armed, he can t have any BDU or uniforms, which would make him a militia member (see section 3.18). The advantage of the civilian is while he can be captured or killed if he ever chooses to fight, he can also be a normal citizen without a risk of being killed. If he would ever get killed during his day-to-day business, the aggressing force would get point deductions. Few rules of engagement all players should expect and respect in regards to civilian: - An armed civilian can be shot. - An unarmed* civilian can't be shot without penalties. If you kill him/them, you will get points deducted. - All other rules found in this pack such as medic or capture rules apply to the civilian role player(s). * Being unarmed consist of carrying an unloaded and holstered/slung weapon(s). It also means no explosives or any other kind of lethal weapons can be found on your person. For the sake of realism, we highly encourage civilian players to wear as little gear as possible. Wearing a mag pouch, camelback or even a light duty vest is good enough. Point being, if you wear as much stuff as any other soldiers in the field, you are not much of a civilian anymore. The death wish way The unarmed way 26

27 3.18 Militia member Trained and lethal, the militia members represent the citizen armed forces. They do not believe democracy or peace will help resolving any issues they are facing and decided the aggression was the only way to go. A militia man wears a typical uniform and uses any gear or weapons available. There is no such thing as a peaceful militia man Staff The staff is actually a mix of organizer(s), referees(s) and field official(s). Their function is to make sure the event will go smoothly without hassles. They know the rules and the field. They can address any possible issues in the field. If for any reasons they could not respond adequately, they are in direct contact with the main organizer. Staff wears the field official patch (shown below) and can be reached on channel FRS 1, sub-code Driver(s) The drivers are in charge of running the vehicles. They can't have any other roles except basic rifleman Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) In airsoft, for sake of simplicity, the NCO is the man in charge of keeping the squad(s) focused and at the ready outside the playing zone. He is the one who will call for rally-up, gear checks including loadout, weaponry, radio, etc. The NCO is also keeping a close eye on the watch and make sure the squad(s) are ready on time and nobody is left behind (unless required to). The NCO has no gear limitation and can fulfill double duties. 27

28 Chapter 4: Weaponry 4.0 Classic AEG (Automatic Electric Gun) The AEG is the most common weapon on the field. They are battery operated and use a gearbox system to create an air blast, propelling the bbs outside the barrel. They are generally very close to a 1:1 ratio of a real steel gun 4.1 Advanced Training weapons (PTW, CTW, etc) While this platform has been on the market for the last few years, the introduction of the Systema PTW and the Celsius CTW pushed the envelope as far as ease of use, performance some time, headaches. These weapons usually involved split receiver, giving access to a quick cylinder change, a higher rate of fire due to their electronic (Mosfet). Due to their ease of quick modification and higher rate of fire, such weapons are scrutinized more than the regular AEG and might be up for more chrono check. 4.2 Gas rifle (Polarstar, KWA, Tippman, etc) Gas rifle have been around for quite some time now but with the introduction of better and more reliable electronic and the new Polarstar platform, these guns are resurfacing with high praising reviews. Unfortunately, with new gadgets come new concerns. To reduce scrutiny and control as much as possible, each gas gun using external tanks should always use a air line lock and HPA tanks. For those using other air or gas supply, your output FPS/Joule might vary throughout the day and you are at risk of being spot checked by event staff just to make sure your FPS/Joule did not go over the FPS/Joule limitations. 4.3 Bolt Action The Bolt action rifles are either gas or spring powered. The power is lower than 600fps with 0.20g bbs. The gun can use cartridges, magazines or clips. The bolt action rifle can t be semi or full auto capable. 4.4 Claymores Claymores can be activated either remotely, by laser or hard wired. The only claymores allowed at this time are the BB claymores, which means when detonated, a rain of BBs will come out and hit the player. The killing radius depends on the BBs power, which has to be less than 400fps with 0.20g bbs. Only the player getting hit by the BBs is actually considered hit. The claymore owners are responsible for their claymore and need to keep track of where they put them. 4.5 GBB (Gas Blow Back Pistols) Gas pistols are what they are: pistols. They are not meant to be support weapons or sniper gun. 28

29 4.6 Grenades Only operational grenades can be used for this event. Tornado and ThunderB comes to mind. Fake or custom made grenades are use as distraction device only. Grenades can be used indoor and outdoor; Indoor: Players have to be hit by a BB to be dead. Ricochet counts. Outdoor: Players have to be hit by a BB to be dead. Ricochet counts. Grenades must be tossed, not thrown. We simulate roof tops on all buildings. NO tossing over the walls. 4.7 Knife, bayonets and other blades We consider a blade anything more than 2 inches long. Any plastic, rubber or real blades are strictly prohibited inside the playing zone. Player found with a blade in the field will be expelled immediately. Consequentially, simulated knife kills are NOT allowed since we do not believe in invisible weapons. If you are close enough for a knife kill, draw a sidearm and BANG the opposing player. Yes we know, not all players will take the "bang" but you will at least have done the right thing. 4.8 Landmines Landmines may be used for this event. ONLY explosive mines are deadly. Please avoid filling the landmine with sticky, messy material such as flour and baby powder. 4.9 Rocket and grenade launchers Rocket will be allowed for building and/or vehicle destruction. A single hit inside a building is enough to kill all players on the targeted room. The rocket has to be launched from its MED. Rockets fired outdoor kills every players within a 15ft radius of the landing point. Only Nerf Rockets are allowed at this time, nerf balls are prohibited. Make sure to identify each and every rocket as they can easily get mixed up and/or lost Semi-auto AEG A semi-auto AEG is any weapon which as the full auto capability permanently removed. A DMR is a good example. Such modification allows the player to use the gun up to 450FPS with 0.20g bbs instead of 400fps (for those over 18). Please see chapter 2.3 for FPS restrictions. 29

30 4.11 Support Weapon A support weapon is any weapon replicating real life support weapon (i.e. interchangeable outer barrel, bipod, etc). Support weapons are allowed up to 400 FPS. Support weapons are limited to 1 per 4 man squad. Appendix 11 lists 4.12 Smoke Devices Smoke producing devices are allowed as long as they are cold burn variety. Cold burn is defined as any device that does NOT require an open flame to ignite AND during its operation Laser (Red or Green) Laser safety is safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, especially those involving eye injuries. Since even relatively small amounts of laser light can lead injuries, the sale and usage of lasers is typically subject to government regulations. to permanent eye Moderate and high-power lasers are potentially hazardous because they can burn the retina of the eye, or even the skin. To control the risk of injury, various specifications, for example ANSI Z136 in the US and IEC internationally, define "classes" of laser depending on their power and wavelength. These regulations also prescribe required safety measures, such as labeling lasers with specific warnings, and wearing laser safety goggles when operating lasers. ONLY CLASS 1 and CLASS 2 Laser are authorized in the field. If you can t identify the class of your laser, DO NOT BRING IT. 30
