Here you will find our rules. Please read them, they are important and your playing at Tech Brigade is dependent on you understanding them. Otherwise, your safety, or that of others may be compromised. There are links to other information pages here too.

 

  1. Electric weapons, whether semi or full auto, will have a muzzle velocity of no more that 328 feet per second (1 Joule). We allow a 7% variation, BUT, that is a leeway to allow for atmospheric conditions, not a blind eye to guns intentionally built to do 350.9 fps.
  2. Bolt action and weapons will have a muzzle velocity of no more than 500 feet per second with a 0.2g bb.
  3. When you are hit, Shout "HIT" and raise your hand. You will take your hits. End of story.
  4. Between games, remove your magazines, and safely, clear your gun to make sure there isn't "one up the spout".
  5. Dry firing is not permitted in the safe zones. There may be a nearby test firing range which you can use.
  6. We insist that you wear eye protection at all times during games and until we leave the playing area. For full face protection, you should wear a mask. At the very least, you must wear safety glasses. Under 18's are required to wear full face protection.
  7. Minimum age is 17. We may accept players no younger than 14 years when accompanied by a playing adult.
  8. All players will listen to the briefings that will be given during the day and will play in a sportsman like manner throughout the event.
  9. If you damage any hire equipment, we may retain any deposit. (If you damage a loaned mask, we may retain your AEG hire deposit)
  10. Friendly fire counts as do head shots. Ricochets don't.
  11. If your weapon is hit while you are under cover because the weapon is the only bit of you showing, the hit does not count. If your weapon is hit while you are exposed or in the open, the hit does count.
  12. Dead players cannot talk until they have returned to the deadzone.

 

Additional documents

During a skirmish, we sometimes take photographs and/or video footage. By attending Tech Brigade, you are giving implicit permission for us to do this and publish any resulting media. If this causes you real problems, please let us know at the start of the day.
