HIT CALLING: Anywhere on your body or gear counts as a hit, FRIENDLY FIRE COUNTS. Gun hits and ricochets do not count.  When you are hit you are to scream and fall down ACT IT OUT.  At this point, you are considered wounded.  You may not talk until you are actively receiving medical aid.  Your body is lifeless and you are dead weight.  To be moved to a medic you must be dragged or carried

MEDICAL RULES:

At Operation Orions Gate, all participants will be issued a Ballahack Airsoft fake tourniquet (TQ). Upon being shot for the first time and being 'downed', a participant can receive 'Buddy Aid' from any other participant. The fake TQ must be fully applied to an arm and fastened for the action to be complete. Once the fake TQ is fully applied, the downed player is alive.

If a participant already wearing a fake TQ is shot again, they will require a Medic Water Bottle (Medic Water). A medic (5 medics per platoon) can administer Medic Water to the downed player. Once the downed player has consumed the Medic Water, they will return the empty bottle to the medic they received it from, remove the TQ, and become alive again.

RESPAWNS:

If there are no nearby friendly medics to administer Buddy Aid or Medic Water, there will be a faction specific spawns . BEFORE a participant can decide to travel to their spawn, they must bleed out for THREE MINUTES. Once the three-minute bleedout is over, participants are permitted to travel to their spawn. If a participant decides to start walking to their spawn, they MUST travel all the way there to reenter gameplay. Participants CAN NOT start traveling to spawn and then receive Buddy Aid or Medic Water on the way.

Once an individual has reached their Respawn, they must wait for ONE additional minute before they can re-enter gameplay. Spawning at your Respawn point does not consume medic water, and you can remove any TQs after the additional ONE minute bleedout. The RESPAWN will be marked with PINK FLAGGING TAPE. The RESPAWN is on the field, but technically out of play. EYEPRO MUST REMAIN ON IN THIS AREA

MOVING DOWN PLAYERS:

 WHEN a player is shot, they MAY NOT move under their power. Friendly players must do an assisted move, such as dragging or having the shot player lean on the live player.

BLINDMAN: 

If there is any type of emergency all players in the AO are to stop fighting, stay where they are, and repeat “blindman”.  Once the situation is resolved Command staff will give the call “Game on” before you can move or continue fighting
