Competition Rules

1. No hit calling; only the Marshals will have the last say on hits.
2. One Hit/Splat=Kill – players who are hit and have paint splat in any part of the body will be considered killed.
3. Gun hits – are not legitimate hits, players may turn to the marshal for confirmation
4. The Hit Down Rule – unlike other games, players who are hit must immediately lay down or sit down where they were shot, with their hands away from their weapons. They must stay there for the duration of the game time or until the game ends. This will help enhance the realism of the event, while ensuring that surviving members of the teams will have clear fields of fire.
5. Gun Jams – can happen in real life and are thus legitimate situations. Players who encounter jams are virtually eliminated by virtue of LUCK OF THE DRAW. However, said player can still maneuver until hit. IN ORDER TO AVOID JAMS be sure to firmly engage the magazine by slapping it in hard; one must also have the gun checked and certified by the ATACS Tech Team before the start of the game.
6. Unruly, Unsportsman-like or Ungentlemanly conduct – will not be tolerated throughout the competition. Team leaders are encouraged to manage and control members of their teams, and bring official grievances to the RAW Organizing Committee.
7. Gun/Equipment Return – in order to facilitate the faster turn-around time during the competition, teams are encouraged to quickly return their weapons, helmets and magazines to the Deployment Desk.
