Carentan pt1 Event Info

The basic rules

All Soldiers start with 2 bandages / hits! Any friendly player can heal the first and second hit by tying one of the injured player’s bandages to their arm. On the third hit the soldier is a KIA.
If the soldier has more than 2 hits due to being a veteran, they can take more wounds (carry more bandages for themselves) and can be healed more times before KIA
When out of hits the wounded player must return to their HQ or a controlled CP to re-spawn, only then can they return to the battlefield as a new two hit grunt.

When shot the soldier makes the load call of ‘HIT’ and must fall to the ground calling for help Medic/Sani). A shot player shouldn’t be targeted and cannot return fire until healed!! All wounded players have five minutes for a fellow soldier to get to them before they bleed to death and must take a KIA (Killed in Action) if things are a bit hairy or you’re on your own in the middle of no where you make take an immediate KIA! Just put your hand in the air and call ‘DEAD MAN WALKING’ and return to your CP.
Any soldier can return to their HQ or a controlled CP and be fully restored to full hits (all bandages taken off)
Return to combat fresh and ready. This takes 5 minutes!
Moving wounded. One man with two hands or two men with one hand each can drag a wounded soldier to safety! (Medics have their own rule)

Capturing Wounded soldiers
The enemy can capture any wounded player left behind or not reachable by their own side. To do this all the enemy needs to do is medic the wounded player; they will then be considered a POW (Prisoner of war). POW’s must make their way back to there own HQ (out of game) and register MIA (Missing in action) they will then be added to the POW list.
You can also take a KIA at anytime you have been shot if it looks like no one can get to you or your stuck in the middle of a fire fight.
Rules for load outs and Class
Each style of soldier has its own class and load out; the load outs are defined below. If you are not ranked or have not taken a Class you will be classed as a soldier!

1. Soldier - Load out
Can use a Sub-machine gun 330fps (Thompson, Mp40/44)
Single shot rifle 350fps (Garand,K98)
Can carry 600rds
Can use grenades

2. Sniper – Load out
Can use a single shot bolt-action rifle up to 500fps with a .2 bb
Can carry 150rds
Can use grenades

3. Support – Load out
Can use a mobile support weapon firing at 350 fps (BAR)
Can use a static MG firing at 370fps (.30cal/MG42)
Can carry 2000rds

1. Lieutenant – In command of up to 15 men - Class
1 Radio to HQ
Ammo depends on load out!
Can use grenades

2. Medic – Class (up to 2 per unit)
Call sanctuary. The medic has got to a wounded soldier and places one hand on their shoulder, when this is done the medic calls ‘Sanctuary’, neither the medic nor the wounded soldier being rescued can be targeted until the medic begins to heal the wound (put a bandage on). Medics cannot open fire until the bandage is on! However they only need to use one hand to move a wounded soldier to safety.
Medics can carry up to 6 red bandages into the field; these bandages represent 1 healed wound. To heal a wound the medic takes off the white bandage of an injured soldier and hands it back to them, then replaces it with 1 of the red ones. Only a visit to an HQ (not CP) can replenish red bandages.
Ammo depends on load out!
Can use grenades

3. Engineer – Class (up to 2 per unit)
Can set charges and defuse bombs.
Use artillery and mortars.
Can use a Bazooka to take out enemy vehicles and can repair damaged vehicles in the field. This takes 5 Minutes per hit taken on the vehicle and the vehicle must be fully repaired to become active again.
Ammo depends on load out!
Can use any pyro!

Vehicles at GUNMAN

Only a person that has held a full drivers license for 5 years may drive Vehicles in the game. All vehicles will be marshalled. All 4-wheeled+ vehicles are considered armoured and will be awarded a certain amount of hits. Only strikes on the wheels or marked targets on the vehicles will count as a hit.
So there is no confusion we will be using magnetic flags attached to the side of the vehicles to show who’s in control at the time.

Command Points ‘CP’
The style of CP will vary from event to event it may be a number of REFS on foot, a mobile vehicle or a fixed bunker. The CP is where you reload your mags or re-spawn after a KIA.

The HQ in all cases is ‘OUT OF THE ACTION’ and cannot be attacked unless by order from your command (top brass).

Supplies in the field - optional

Some events will employ the supplies in the field rule. This can only be done if a ‘LIVE’ ammo crate reaches the troops on the line. Once opened the troops must be within 10m of the ammo crate to reload. Example: a soldier has used 450 rds and can reload back up to 600rds! Command may also set up ammo dumps in the field to make it easier for the troops to get hold of their ammo.

Capturing hidden supplies.
If you find a crate in the field and its ‘Live’ you can use it to re-supply your troops and deny the enemy of its supplies.
‘LIVE’ crates will have red tape around their lids, to use the crate the tape must be taken off! Each crate will have 20 ammo tokens. Each man takes 1 token (only) to reload; when all the tokens are gone the ammo crate is empty.

Attacking a CP
During an assault on a CP re-spawns and the re-load of Magazines are frozen until the attack is over. A Ref will announce when the attack begins and when it’s over. An attack will finish when all the soldiers on one side are killed or the attack looses it momentum and is no longer pushing forward onto the CP.
To take a CP 5 live men must hold it for 60 seconds with out taking fire to claim it and place thier flag in the area.
A red flag for Axis and a blue flag for Allies will show who controls the CP.

Great news, Dave Manning from Skirmish has agreed to take the role of the Allied OC 'Col Manning', he's also seeing if he can get a few more vehicals for the allies to use as there HQ is some distance from the town and first HQ's.

He will also be providing a full one stop airsoft shop for all your aisroft needs.

A huge thanks to Charlie from Ambush for all his help so far too.

Cheers Dave and see you in the field mate

Good man, a free banana for you spleany!

It's Spleen! ...tisk You know you can always rely on me, mate!

Banana! By far the more fearsome weapon in airsoft skirmishing...

Could you just confirm that we can get down there at anytime on the Friday?

Access will be from 3pm on!

How many do you have booked for this now? Can't see a roster anywhere.

Yeah it would be good to see a list of players booked in somewhere... not knowing how many people and whether there are any friends of mine booked in has very much delayed any decision as to whether I would attend this, and yes, I have considered it!

I wouldn't want to be the only brit!

It's a lot of money to shell out and I am not going to do it blindy.

Hi matey, CIA run a mates roster, were not CIA but feel free to set a thread up in the GMA section bud to find out what mates from CIA are going lol in fact Ill do it now

We now have payed - 28 Axis and 41 Allied, still quite a few guys that were on the prebook thread NOT booked on and loads of guys from other forums taking those places. Theres also a pile of germans from sbg (the sound ones) booking on. I recon we will hit 100 players buy the end of the month pay cheque.

I'll be there Yith...aren't I your mate lol

Josh, can't you make up a roster using all the booking forms people have sent in just to reassure us? Doesn't have to be CiA members Like Yith I think lots of people are hanging back on this - only me & Mc Vic have stepped up so far on the other thread...

Access will be from 3pm on!

Cheers.

Here is the list of booked and payed players so far! I will say again though Gunman isn't CIA and we dont have the excellent 2ww community they have, its me on my own and updating a dozen forms every day is far to much for little old me already!

On a side note..hanging back is the death of any event! if you want to go, book on asap! so the company running it gets the re-assurance of the numbers! We always hold all the money in an account until 2 weeks before any event so if need be, full refunds can be made! I'm sure the CIA organisers will agree with me on this point, peeps holding back your booking is the most un-helpful action anyone can take!
