15. Night Gaming and Night Base Attacks
Night Missions:
Night missions will take every gaming day from 22:00 to 8:00 AM in specified large area on map where will be mission areas including IR game props as well areas to be hold by each game sides until the morning. Missions will take place based upon HQ decision.
For players who wish not to sleep and crawl in the night in the woods we can assure you will have more than enough action during the night time. We would like to remind players to come on time on the briefing for night ops!
Night Base Attacks:
We have evaluated night time injuries statistics with our medics and came to the following conclusion.
Historically most of the moderate injuries which require special care took place in the night during dangerous CQB among tents and as well from ignoring safety distances in the night time.
Based upon that due to the higher player safety risk because of such actions and higher health hazard risk during night play in bases - game bases and sleeping areas can be part of the game only from 8:00-22:00 based upon mission from HQ (Not solo player actions)
It is as well not allowed to enter other player tents during night and day.
This measures have been as well already in place on BW11 the main reason is to keep players safety on first place as we have during BW11 identified several groups of players who were planning just coming to shoot sleeping players and ignore the game scenario and mission orders. (This groups and individuals are on the ban list currently) All this actions were always solo gaming actions – and never done upon any HQ order or mission.
General message from game organizer for players who were planning reckless and dangerous actions: All participants violating game rules and player codex will be banned without refund. Take it in mind once you are going to be captured by Game Master in the player base in base during off game hours!
„ If you want to crawl in players tents in the night and shoot players to faces or hit them with rubber axes etc… - Because you think its “MILSIM” to shoot sleeping players in their tents to the face - go do it somewhere else - we are not interested in such solo players on spot! Not on our game, sorry. Safety first !“ Mike von Bulow – Border War Founder
