Special security rules related to this game
No proper fight, no constraint, only simulation. Players only put their hands on others' bodies; they don't grab them. Of course, every player is expected to play and pretend to be constrained or hit with fairplay.
Run carefully, particularly in stairs or on ice.
Replicas power limit: only single fire (semi-auto, pump, bolt), max 100m/s
Minimum engagement distance: 2m
Grenades have to be rolled on the floor, never thrown.
Humans
Objective: Survive!
Damages:
- Member hit: One hit is sufficient to injure arms and legs. This member is not usable any longer, until healing.
- Trunk hit: A hit to the belly, to the chest, to the back, causes irremediable death. However, the death can come within 10 sec if the player wants, which leaves the time to the human to collapse, shout, call mum, shot a couple of BBs more, tell his last words, before to bleed out. A second hit to the trunk ends it immediatly. (Be fairplay!)
- Head hit: A hit reaching head or neck is deadly immediatly.
Respawn rules:
A human killed lays on the ground few minutes, fluo flag on, until the action around has ended, and then returns to his respawn place.
An infected human killed lays on the ground, immobile, fluo flag on, and turns to a zombie after 1 min. A so zombified human can be (re)killed: he lays down on the ground, fluo flag on, wait few minutes the action around has ended, and returns to the respawn place.
Zombies
Objective: Eat!
Description: A zombie is a dead creature with a brain almost out of order, but only almost, as he still remembers basic instincts. He can then grumble, see, hear, walk pretty fast and ambush. He's attracted by human activity signs (noise, lights, smell...). He can recognize instantaneously fresh and dead flesh. Ah, and he tends to claw, immoblilize and bite people.
A zombie doesn't feel pain and is therefore much more resistant than his alive human cousin. Several shots to members are necessary to cripple him, and head shots to get rid of him forever. Shotguns are more efficient, by the way. One single shotgun hit is often enough to stop, to make fall and to cripple a zombie.
Respawn rules:
An eliminated zombie leaves discreetly the action area, fluo flag on, and can respawn out of sight after taking a few breath and drinking a bit of water (unless contrary leader's instruction). A zombie player has no fix respawn place. Zombies are legion.
Special features: how to play?
Those features are not rules, but more likely a guide to explain what's going to happen in game and how it's expected to react. So if some better way to play is found during a particular action, just enjoy it, as long as it is fairplay and roleplay.
In game, if you want to make sure your opponent follows your will, just mumble him the feature name, then he will know what you're doing.
Infection: A character is considered infected if he has been clawed or bitten. The infection propagates quickly: the character cannot run anymore, he feels dizzy and feverish. He dies after 5 or 10 min (the player himself decides), and resuscitate as a zombie. A character can hide his infection from his mates. He can also be executed, which will prevent him to rise again in zombie skin.
Claw: A zombie can claw a character (by putting his hand on him). The character becomes infected.
Immobilisation: If someone succeeds to put his two hands on a character, then the character is considered as immobilised. If a character is immobilised by a zombie, he has to lay on the ground, ready to be bitten. The immobilised character needs help from a third person to be rescued.
Rescue: A character can be liberated from immobilisation, if some courageous one comes to help him. It just needs to take the immobilisator away, at his own risk of course.
Bite: To bite, a zombie must have immobilised a human first. A bite gives infection. The bite action is simulated for 10 sec at least (and more if affinity). While being bitten, the character can pass time at shouting and struggling in vain, but nothing else. If no rescue arrives, then he dies, before to rise from the dead as zombie.
Death: A character killed falls to the ground, displays his fluo flag, and waits the action happening around is over. If he's infected, he has still some business to do. If it's final death, then he can go to respawn.
Execution: A character or a zombie can be executed by simulating a hit to the head with a melee weapon replica or a simulated shot with firearm replica (don't shoot at point-blank range!). An infected character, once executed, doesn't resuscitate as zombie, since his brain is destroyed.
Tie up: A captured character can be tied up. A string is passed around his hands and/or feet to simulate it. However, this string must not be knotted and hands must be placed in front. In all cases, a player must be free and able to protect himself from fall with his hands, even if the character he plays is prisoner. A tied up character cannot liberate himself, unless he still got a blade replica hidden in his clothes. Otherwise, he needs help from a third person.A tied up character abandonned by his jailers can consider himself dead after a while and go back to respawn, or zombified and wandering around.
Search: Some might want to search weapons and other items on someone's body. But this can be a bit embarrassing for the player. Therefore, the searched player has two options:- Let searchers to search you. Searchers will palpate, watch into pockets, empty backbags (with care!), until they find what they search or until they give up.
- Refuse searchers to touch your stuffs. Searchers will then anounce where they check: "I search this pocket". The searched player will have to tell honestly what is inside, without any possiblity to hide anything.
Note: Personal equipment can be considered as seized, but it must stay with its owner. A searcher can anounce: "I confiscate this knife"; the knife replica's owner keeps his knife with him, but this very item is offgame from now on, unless it's given back. Game items, though, must be given truely.
Medic: A medic character must wear something that identifies him so, like for instance: a white coat, a redcross armband, a first aid bag, etc.A wound on a member (legs and arms) can be treated by a medic, if he has got medical bands and medicaments. He bandages the wounded member and gives a medicament to the patient. Bandages are medic player's owns; medicaments are found in game. Healing time: at least a whole 2 min, in immobility.
Wounds on trunk or head are deadly, in these precarious conditions. A medic can still try to slow down the hemoragy to extend a few seconds the life of a dying one, to give him time to tell his last words.
Engineer: A engineer must wear something that identifies him so, like for instance: some blue overalls, an engineer armband, a tool box, etc.This guy knows how to repair a gun, if it has been hit. He just needs to be in calm condition for 2 min. He can also play with explosive devices, like mines.
