Description

Red River
(Open World Roleplay utilizing MILSIM ruleset)
June 1st-2nd, 2024


The lush, untamed Pantano Verde region has become a battleground for power, profit, and survival. With the rise of the Zona Tribal Authority (ZTA) as the dominant governing force, the region stands at a crossroads between autonomy and external pressure. The once-chaotic security landscape has shifted as the Federal Police Force takes control, pushing out the remnants of the DPEG and sidelining the British Embassy.

But peace remains elusive.

The Patagonia Liberation Front (PLF), now a legitimate political force, has left their extremist ideals behind, and is now working to stop foreign interests proliferating in the region. Meanwhile, the Citizens Legion, a multinational Private Military Company, moves to secure Pantano Verde’s abundant resources and vital trade routes, fueling tensions with local factions.

Adding to the turmoil are The Expats, a clandestine network of Prikaza and Sokol dissidents determined to undermine Zona’s authority and sow discord in the fragile new order. Alliances are tenuous, betrayals common, and every decision carries the weight of a region’s future.

As old powers wane and new forces rise, Pantano Verde becomes a dangerous chessboard where every move could mean liberation—or total collapse. Who will claim control of the region, and at what cost?

Red River is an event that merges our Open World Roleplay events (Rev, Fertile Crescent, The Wild, etc.) with the ruleset of our MILSIM events (Limited ammo, non standard medic rules, serious tone, etc.)

Each Team has specific Uniforms and Kit Restrictions that MUST be adhered to. Failure to follow the strict guidelines will result in removal from the event without a refund.

Ballahack Airsoft Is Providing BB's for this event. Do not bring your own.

Economy, Searching/ Looting & Restraint

Red River is primarily a role-playing event, where tribes focus on increasing wealth, resources, and intelligence.This wealth is represented in the form of in-game currency, tribe-specific resources, and other gameplay items. Participants can use in-game currency for all manner of goods and services. All participants are heavily encouraged to bring several lootable items to barter or trade within gameplay. Specific looting rules are based on different denominations of in-game currency. Players cannot use "Real-world" trades to get gameplay items from Role Players (I.E. Trade your gun for a Bandage). In-game items can be received by doing missions, trading other In-game items, or using in-game currency. Players cannot use real money (USD) to buy items on the field from players.

  • RESTRAINT RULES: During certain missions, there may be certain opportunities to restrain a role-player or player. The ONLY restraints that will be permitted are ASP RED TRAINING restraints that DO NOT lock that will be issued by Command Staff. DO NOT restrain ANY player or role-player with real restraints or hand cuffs. If you are restraining a player or role-player, ONLY attach restraints with their hands in front of their torso.

SEARCHING RULES:  Some situations may require you to search ‘dead’ bodies. If a player being searched identifies an item as a personal item, said personal item MAY NOT be taken from their person. Before conducting a physical search, you MUST ask for consent. If a player asks to see your Tribal ID, you are required to produce the ID.

  1. IF a player DOES consent to a physical search, you may physically check their pockets, bag, load bearing equipment, or other means of carrying items. You MAY NOT remove primary items of clothing (shirt, pants, etc.), reach under primary items of clothing, or take personal items (cell phone, ID, medical card, etc.). You may take photos of any gameplay intel or gameplay items, and you may physically take any gameplay intel or gameplay items. If a player does NOT consent, or during your physical search they retract consent, stop and proceed to point 2 below.
  2. If a player DOES NOT consent to physical search, or during a physical search they RETRACT consent, then the searching player will ask them for access to items/areas on their person that they wish to inspect. The player being searched MUST offer any gameplay intel or gameplay items to the searching player if the searching player requests access to where the intel/items are stored.

Medics & Respawning

Medics:

At Red River, all participants will be issued a bandage. Upon being shot for the first time and being 'downed', a participant can receive 'Buddy Aid' from any other participant, regardless of faction. The bandage must be fully applied to an arm and fastened for the action to be complete. Once the bandage is fully applied, the downed player is alive.

If a participant already wearing a bandage is shot again, they will require a Medic Water Bottle (Medic Water). Any player can administer Medic Water to the downed player. Once the downed player has consumed the Medic Water, they will return it to the person they received it from, remove the bandage, and become alive again.

RESPAWNS:

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 Respawn and then receive Buddy Aid or Medic Water on the way.

Once a player has reached their spawn, they must wait for ONE additional minute before they can reenter gameplay. Firefights at spawn points are strictly prohibited.

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 a member of the Police Force has reached their Respawn Room in the Station, they must wait for ONE additional minute before they can re-enter gameplay. If there are hostile elements inside the Station, members of the Force may not utilize their spawn, BUT they may receive Buddy Aid OR Medic Water from any other participant in their Respawn Room.
