Relevant Information/Rules: I now have a Google Doc that I keep updated with my current rule set


~ Don't be afraid to ask questions! The only dumb question is the one not asked.

 

~ Anybody is welcome to attend, including family and friends. Said people should be 13 years of age or older due to general shenanigans.


~ Homemades are allowed if they are pistol-esque, are shot gunned to 3 or more barrels or shoot large ammo.

    “Pistol esque” guidelines: ~75ft ranges. Plunger tube no longer than 6 inches. Inner Diameter of

plunger tube no larger than 2 inches. Barrel Length no longer than 6 Inches.

I reserve the right to allow or disallow any homemade.


~ West coast rule-set

 

~ Blasters MUST have an orange tip


~ A hit is defined as the projectile in question changing direction upon the striking the player first. If there is a dispute, the host is right. Please don't break the flow of the round over hits, it's just a game.

 

~ Barrel taps: if you think you have to barrel tap with something at a stock-ammo war, you're doing it wrong


~ Blasters count as shields


~ Shields are broken by large ammo and count as a hit


~ Large ammo hitting Melee does not count as a hit

 

~ High rate-of-fire battery operated blasters will be dis-allowed for zombies rounds.

 

~ You are not out if you catch small ammo with only your hand. Large ammo still tags you.


~ You can choose to be a "Wisconsin/Walker" Zombie, losing anything except handtag and you may only walk, but you are invincible to small ammo. During zombie rounds only. Or not. We won't judge.


~ You may throw ammo by hand. It is encouraged that you yell “LIGHTNING BOLT” for maximum hilarity.


~ Bayonets or melee weapons attached to blasters will not count as melee weapons. You’ll poke your eye out, kid.


~ Large ammo is anything other than a standard Nerf dart or rival ball.

Relevant Information/Rules: I now have a Google Doc that I keep updated with my current rule set


Relevant Information/Rules:

 

~ Don't be afraid to ask questions! The only dumb question is the one not asked. Also; Any rules listed may be bent at my discretion. I will be more lenient towards ridiculous or amusing requests.  

 

~ Anybody is welcome to attend, including family and friends. Anyone under 13 years old must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Said adult can be nerfing if they wish.

 

~ West coast rule-set

Once you are hit, you are out and lose 1 life, no matter how many darts hit you)(In rounds with lives, 3 lives/15 second respawn {3/15} is the standard. Respawn countdown can be delayed and you can walk around/reload while respawning. Do not respawn next to an enemy active player.

 

~ Blasters MUST have an orange tip

 

~ Blasters should shoot slower than 100 feet per second.  I lack a chrono, but you’ll shred darts above 100 anyway.

 

~ Homemade are allowed if they are pistol-esque or shot gunned to 3 or more barrels or shoot large ammo.

    I must give the O.K. on all homemades. Pistol-esque means performance akin to superstock blasters.

 

~ High rate-of-fire battery operated blasters will be dis-allowed for zombies rounds.

 

~ Blasters may not have pointy protrusions on them.    This is for Toaster boy. Hopefully he'll show up for once.

 

~ Bayonets or melee weapons attached to blasters do not count as melee weapons.

 

~ Barrel taps: if you think you have to barrel tap with something at a stock-ammo war, you're doing it wrong

 

~ A hit is defined as the projectile in question changing direction upon the striking the player first. If there is a dispute, the host is right. Please don't break the flow of the round over hits, it's just a game.

 

~ Blasters count as shields.

 

~ Shields are “broken” by large ammo and count as a hit.     The bigger the shield, the bigger the target.

 

~ Large ammo is anything other than a standard nerf dart, boomco dart or rival ball. Bring your stress balls!

 

~ Large ammo hitting Melee does not count as a hit.      You’re a Jedi!

 

~ You are not out if you catch small ammo with only your hand. Large ammo still tags you.

 

~ You can choose to be a "Wisconsin/Walker" Zombie, losing anything except handtag and you may only walk, but you are invincible to small ammo.     Great if you want to play Pokemon Go while nerfing.

 

~ Snowballs (If applicable) count as small ammo.   

 

~ You may throw ammo by hand.      It is encouraged that you yell “LIGHTNING BOLT” for maximum hilarity.
