​

​​​Who Can Play

The minimum age to play is 12 years old. All players under the age of 18 MUST have a waiver signed and a copy of a driver's license by a parent or legal guardian signed as well!

Safety: (OWP) considers safety its #1 priority. Airsoft & Milsim is designed for the mature and level-headed player. Common sense and the right, fair-play, honest attitude are a must at our events.

Safety 

​​

(OWP) requires everyone to have a barrel cover over the tip of their gun when not on the playing field, as well as magazine out and safety on! All pistols must be holstered.

All players are required to attend the safety briefing prior to the start of the game. A wristband will be issued once briefing is over and we will be checking them before game start. Anyone who does not have a wristband will have to wait until after game starts to go over the rules.

(OWP) approved face Protection must remain on at all times while on the field or chronograph areas. Do not remove face protection under any circumstance.

​​

Fully sealed approved goggle systems must be used including approved full seal Airsoft goggles that meet or exceed ASTM standards. (ANSI Z87.1 and/or ASTM F- 1776-99a rated (or greater) ballistic eye protection will be accepted.)

​​

There will be a Mandatory Ejection of any players lifting or removing goggles while in "goggle on" areas (Playing Field, Chronograph Area, Target Area) after being personally warned once. This includes any action in which a player touches his/her Eye Protection in such a way that the seal of the goggles is broken. NO MESH GOGGLES!

​

Lower Face Protection is a must under the age of 18.  Lower Face Protection is highly recommended for all other players

 

Cease Fire

Players or staff should call “cease fire” if you or another player is injured or loses their eye protection and requires immediate Admin/Medical attention. You will need to both vocally and via Comms (if possible) make the “cease fire” call with approximate location and details of the incident

​

Mandatory Equipment

Gun, Face Protection/Goggles, red dead rag, and camouflage to match team colors.

​

Recommended Equipment

 Helmet, boots, knee pads, gloves. Lower face mesh is recommended, but not mandatory.

​

NO

​

YOU MAY NOT WEAR RED, OR FLUORESCENT CLOTHING OR GEAR. Red represents dead on the kill rag and Fluorescent represents ref or staff. This would confuse players.

​

• No Verbal abuse, name-calling, profanity, etc. will be tolerated.

• No Stealing, vandalizing, or fighting. (you will be turned over to the police)

• No Drugs or Alcohol.

• No Barricading doors or windows

• No Riot shields

​

Lasers will be allowed but shining them in the face of another player or at any vehicles used in our games will result in an automatic ejection from the game.

​

Dead Rag

 (OWP) requires every player to have a red "dead rag" on their person while playing. The red dead rag is to be placed on top of your head or held up high when you are hit to symbolize you are out.

​

You are required to bring your own red dead rag

​

Mags

 At (OWP)  games you may use and capacity mags you wish.

​

Hit Rule

• If you are hit anywhere on your person or gear you are out.

• Friendly fire counts.

• All Hits count except for ricochets and gun hits.( when hit in the gun call “gun hit” so your enemy knows they were close. This prevents arguments of players not calling their hits.

• If your gun is not in your hands it is considered gear and would count for a hit.

​

Airsoft is a game of honor. CALL YOUR OWN HITS. Do not call opposing team players out. If you believe another player is not calling their hits, please inform game staff and they will look into it. Players caught cheating by not calling their hits will get one warning and after that they will be ejected from the game. 

​​

After you are hit yell "HIT" or "OUT" and pull out your red dead rag and make sure it is visible.

A wounded player must remain where hit and another player must simulate dragging the wounded player to a safe area.

​

Dead Man Tell No Tales. Which means that if you are shot, you may not communicate with any player in play, that includes on the radio. The only thing you are allowed to do is call for a "MEDIC".

Bang Bang Rule

NO MORE BANG BANG RULE If a player enters in close range combat, inside the minimum engagement distance where firing his/her full auto weapon (support weapon/SMG) or his/her sniper/DMR  is against the rules you must retreat to the appropriate minimum engagement distance.

​

Cheater Bomb

Each time you are caught cheating we will add cheater rings to the enemy cheater Bomb. After 10 rings are acquired , the opposite team command can choose to steal points from one Landmark control area during our next score check.

​

MEDIC ROPE/HIT STICK

​

At (OWP) airsoft games we use a rope with knots to represent how many lives you have before you must return to your CP. If you have a hit stick and would like to use it you may. You will have 3 total lives before you must respawn.

​

MEDIC RULE 

• At (OWP) airsoft games, the "medic" must untie a knot on a medic rope or flip the hit stick tab of a wounded player in order to revive them.

• ONLY medics are allowed to heal other Medic players.

• A medic must wear a patch or armband to represent they are a medic.(we do not provide a medic patch, so make sure you have one)

• 2 medics per every 10 players per team (medic roles will be given out at your CP right before game start, so don't be late)

• The role of medic can be transferred from one player to another, but only at your team's command post.

• IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE ON THE FIELD OFTEN DO NOT BE A MEDIC!

​

Bleed out rule- NO MORE BLEED OUTS! If a medic can not reach you then you must return to respawn.  We have decided to eliminate this rule to help keep teams from using main point Landmarks as hospitals.

​

​

GRENADE RULE

In order to kill a player with a grenade your grenade must discharge. (Thunder B's, Tornado, EG-67, Tag etc.)

​

​INDOOR-

• 15' kill radius

• can use hard cover to shield yourself from the blast. Be fair, a hard cover is not a net or a cardboard box.

• Inside the Castle or the fort courtyard is considered indoors. Over the past 6 years we have realized that it is almost impossible to take these types of locations and this is an attempt to make these areas more playable

​

OUTDOOR-​

•  To kill a player outside a building with a grenade, it must discharge bb's and hit the enemy

​

TAG LAUNCHABLE ROUNDS-

• Indoor and outdoor rules are same as throwables 

• must come to a special rules briefing

• must fill out TAG waiver

• must have DEMO patch to be able to use TAG launchable products. (patch available at vending)

 

we do not allow the Paladin Chalk, Pecker Dummy, or Master Key Buckshot rounds

​

​

Smoke

 At (OWP) games, cold burning smoke is allowed but may not be used in buildings of any kind. Red smoke may not be used since it will be used by game staff only. EMR Event Park is a sport smoke only field and they will have plenty for sale.

​

Radios

(not mandatory) but highly recommended for communicating with your team

We highly recommend baofang uv-5r. (OWM) will no longer provide radios.

(absolutely NO radio warfare)

Drones

• Do Not shoot at Drones

​

​

Mission

• Main objective will be controlling Landmarks. In order to do this you have to find your teams flags and take them to each Landmark area for control. Scoring will be taken every 1-2 hours.

• There will be clock bomb props, worth 200 points per hour of control, armed and moved by anybody. Must be placed within 20 yards(60 ft.) from Landmark area, only one clock bomb prop per Landmark

Spawn Camping

(OWP) does not allow spawn camping at all. We created what we call the DEAD ZONE to help prevent this. Red caution tape will represent the DEAD ZONE. If you are in your DEAD ZONE and get shot, you are not wounded and can keep fighting. You may always shoot out of your teams DEAD ZONE but will never take damage inside.

​

(If you are shot while carrying a flag or prop of any kind you must put the prop/flag on the ground where you stand)

(you may only touch or move props if you are on a mission to do so)
