RULES FOR CODE ORANGE
12 Hour Military Simulation Event
​
THE STORY
The second American civil war wages on with no end in sight! Both sides fight for position. Coming off multiple big victories the Patriots have their sights set on SCI Cresson Prison in Pennsylvania. Their plan is to take the prison as a new stronghold. They will free the prisoners in hopes that they will join their fight. Little do they know that this prison houses some of the most ruthless criminals this country has ever seen. They will not take sides, they will attempt to take control.
​
​Squad Reservation
Please read the rules and reserve your squad! You must reserve your team a squad before purchasing tickets for Code Orange! Reserving your squad only holds the squad. Only ONE person from your squad has to reserve it. We will send that person an email that the reserved squad is confirmed. If you do not meet the minimum requirements for a squad please do not reserve it. If you do not have enough players to meet the minimum requirements you can register as "a player looking for a squad" once that option opens at a later date.
Reserve your squad at www.otherworldmilsim.com (If you do not have a team to register a squad you may purchase a ticket as a "Player Looking For A Squad". You will then be placed with squads needing players.

Please do not purchase tickets if you are under the age of 16 without permission because Tickets are Non-Refundable and you will not be permitted to play!

Safety
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.
​​
(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, HPA airline disconnected, and safety on! All pistols must be holstered.
All players are required to attend the safety briefing prior to the start of the game. The event patch will be issued once briefing is over and we will be checking for them throughout the event.( You must wear your event patch or have it on your person if asked to see it by staff) Anyone who does not have an event patch will be removed from the event and will have to wait until game staff would have time 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.)
Oakley, ESS, Pit viper ect will need a gasket to be approved.
​​
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 highly recommended! If you are not wearing lower face pro we don't want to hear it if you get shot in the face.

Camping
Camping will be allowed but please be prepared for the temperature and the weather. This event is close to Altoona Pa with endless hotel options
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. Most cease fire incidents are handled within minutes, we do not cease fire the entire field of play unless a major medical problem is occurring. If a cease fire is called stay where you are and wait for Staff, player staff, command, or a referee to call "GAME ON"

If you accuse a player of shooting over our FPS or ROF limits and we stop their game to re crono them and you are wrong, points will be awarded to the accused team. In 13 years of hosting games and hundreds of checks on the field , only once was someone shooting hot and they were indefinitely removed from our events!

​
Dead Rag/ Dead Lights
(OWP) requires every player to have a red "dead rag" and a red "dead light" 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 during the day and the red dead light is to be used during the night. Any other color deadlight is prohibited. Game staff will be using a color other than red.
You are required to bring your own red dead rag and red dead light.
​
Mags
At (OWM) Mil-sim games you may only use mid cap or real cap mags. NO HIGH CAPS, FLASH MAGS, OR DRUM/BOX MAGS ALLOWED. Exception being support weapons.
​
Reloads
You may no longer Reload mags on the field. You must go back to your CP or off the field completely to reload. You may still carry as many mags as you want. Support Weapons can carry as many box/drum mags as they want. Support Weapons can also use m4 mags if out of ammo or having mag problems. We changed this rule to make landmark areas more playable.
​
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 and it is hit , it is considered part of your gear and you would be hit.
​
MILSIM 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.
​
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. Examples of cheating, high cap or flash mags, not calling hits, reloading on the field, etc.
​
​After you are hit yell "HIT" or "OUT" and pull out your red dead rag or if it is night or low light turn on your red dead light and make sure it is visible.
A wounded player must remain where hit but another player may simulate dragging the wounded player to a safe area. You may drag 1 wounded player at a time.
​
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".
​
. MEDIC RULE
At (OWM) Mil-sim games, the "medic" must wrap a medic strap/TQ on the arm or leg of the 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)
One Medic strap/TQ will be issued at registration to each player. It is your responsibility to keep it safe. We will not give out extra.
Only 1 Medic strap/TQ per player (You Must use OWP medic strap/TQ)
2 medics per squad of more than 4 players. Under 4 players 1 medic per squad.
The role of medic can be transferred from one player to another, but only at your team's command post.
When your squad is completely out of medic bands and lives you must withdraw to your Command.​
Sniper teams of 2 players can medic each other but are not allowed to medic players from other squads.
A medic can use other players unused medic straps ( your squad can be revived as many times as you have straps/TQs to do so).
​
Bleed out rule- NO MORE BLEED OUTS! We have decided to eliminate this rule to help keep squads together and teams from using main point Landmarks as hospitals.
​
​
SQUAD RULE
This is a squad based game, therefore your squad must stay together. If we see you walking the field without your squad we will make you go back to your command and wait for them. Each squad will need to designate a squad leader to communicate with your Team Command. Squad leaders must report to command via radio. In the past (OWP) has provided team radios, however we have decided to discontinue this.
(The Squad Rule also helps with safety. There should never be solo players traveling the field for any reason.)
​
IT IS A MANDATORY WITHDRAWAL for your entire squad if you are out of ammunition, medic bands or water. It is the squad leader's responsibility to make the call and inform command. It's up to your squad if you want to incorporate fire team leaders. If you are squad leader and your squad leaves the field of play for any reason you NEED to notify command!
SQUAD TYPES
Code Orange will have 5 types of squads per team.
​

The Technical squad can continue to fight in the disabled vehicle, or outside the vehicle, but the vehicle cannot move until its repaired. To repair a vehicle you need to use the OWP toolbox and wrench to represent the repair. once repaired the technical squad can turn off blinking light and continue to drive.
​
DISTROYED
-When a technical takes a hit from a paladin chalk round while disabled, or when the entire vehicle squad is wiped. it is now considered destroyed and has to return to command before back in play. This will take 10 mins at the CP before reentry.
​
FUEL
A technical needs fuel to operate. There will be fuel cans hidden throughout the event map. taking a fuel can to the technical will add driving time. each can represents 3 hrs. Once your technical is maxed in time for the event, you can no longer take fuel cans but you can prevent the enemy from getting them.
​
​
OPFOR/Prisoner Faction
​
The OPFOR/Prisoner Faction is a group of prisoners that were freed. They are friendly to no one. Treat as hostile. The OPFOR/Prisoner Faction does not have a base so you may see them walking around all holding a rope. This is their transport and may drop in to the game anywhere. So please be cautious. If available we will use a actual transport to move the OPFOR/Prisoner Faction throughout the AO.

Radios
(not mandatory) but highly recommended for communicating with your squad.
- Squad leaders must have a radio to communicate with command. We recommend baofang uv-5r. Absolutely NO radio warfare. We are not responsible for any bleed over from using the radios. In years past most situations where the opposite team was on the wrong channel was due to bleed over and not radio warfare.
​

12 467.6625
​
CP or Command Post
Each team will have a stationary command post or CP. This is typically where you find your commanders, start the game, and resupply bbs, medic straps/TQs.
​
Windows/Doors
You may shoot out of windows and doors if the windows or doors are open. Do not open or close any doors or windows. OWP will open the windows we believe should be in play. This rule also gives us the ability to close windows if we believe there are problems attacking certain main control areas. Opening or closing doors and windows is considered cheating!
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 or reflective poles 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 believe you are still getting spawn camped let command know and they will try and take care of it. Keep in mind spawn camping will happen at this event to some extent due to the boundaries of the facility and placement of CPs.
​
Transports
We are working on having actual troop transports for this event. Command will be able to call in for transport from their CP or at exact locations on the filed. Transports will have to stay on the roads. This will also get squads out of their CP if they are having spawn camping problems. You cannot shoot or destroy troop transports. So please do not shoot at them. A transport will have blinking blue lights on them to represent they are a troop transport.
If real troop transports don't happen we will have ropes for squads to use to represent being transported/air dropped but only from their CP and cannot be used as a defensive tactic. If you see a squad carrying a rope in a line you may not engage them until their transport rope is put away.
​
Props
If you are shot while carrying a prop of any kind you must put the prop on the ground where you stand
you may only touch or move props if you are on a mission to do so. The only exception would be the Demo squad can keep their missile transport box.
​
Skirmesh System(Placeholder until we test if the system will work properly at Cresson)
You are required to either buy or rent a Skirmesh band if you do not already have one. buying a band will allow you to register it on the Skirmesh website and you will be able to keep track of your personal achievements. Renting a band will only allow you to help take control for your team but will not track personal achievements. Buying a band is $15 and renting one is a $5 cash only deposit that will be refunded to you at the end of the event with the returned Skirmesh rental band.
​
Mission
Main objective will be controlling Landmarks using the Skirmesh wristband system.
Finding Ammo can, reporting serial number to command, take ammo can to extraction point, wait for Recon to extract. 5 pts each
There will be clock bomb props, armed and moved by Demolition only.
Missiles can be found by anyone but can only be transported by Demolition squad using the two man transport box. 5 pts each
(Missiles can be used by command to disable communications for 20 minutes and to destroy landmarks. We will use a flare and red smoke to
represent a landmark destruction. If Landmark is destroyed it will be out of play for 15 minutes)​
​
