Weapon Rules
This is a list of our commonly used weapons but generally anything safe, cheap and fun will be allowed. The Crispy Ambulance has a veto on all weapons if they feel they're unsafe. If you consider a weapon to be unsafe, speak! Oh and if you have a really cool idea for a weapon, check with the Crispy Ambulance and then build it but be warned, many weapons are not as useful as they may first appear.
To accommodate the fact that the climate in Britain isn't universally sunny and bright, we have different weapon sets dependant on the weather and location:
The allowed weapon set is printed in big letters at the top of this page- if you miss this warning and the one at the top of the page, may God have mercy on your soul...
Summer weapons (the most lenient set)
Used in summer, early autumn and late spring or any other day where it is oddly warm:
- Water weaponry
- Rolled up and taped copies of TCS or Varsity
- Tennis balls (ONLY IN RURAL CTF)
- Rubber Band Guns
- Nerf Weaponry and other foam-dart guns (restriction may be placed on very powerful NERF guns)
- Toy light sabres and other safe imitation swords, or imitation imitation swords
- Pens labelled 'knife' may be used for stabbing or throwing
- The Sheila penguin and soft toy effigies of Justin Bieber
- Water bombs
Universally, there are weapons which are NEVER allowed:
- Anything illegal. Including replica weapons, weapons that look like real guns, real weapons (obviously) and so forth.
- No pellet guns or BB guns.
- No carrots.
- No bang kills. The game is silly enough as it is.
- No catapults or slingshots.
- Nothing which fires metal, stone or wood.
- Before anyone thinks of it, no laser pointers.
- Frisbees, footballs, those NERF whistly thingys, anything big and heavy.
Other weapon sets:
Winter - Used during winter or colder murky days
Same as Summer weapon set except no water bombs or large water guns. Small water guns are still allowed (a.k.a. 'water with care' to assassin folk)
Snowy - When there is enough snow to do so
SNOW BALL FIGHTING!! No other weapons allowed- except melee
Night - When we play CTF after dark
Same as Winter set except the loss of rubber bands and NERF darts is at your own risk
