CQB Zones

Extreme close-up areas such as inside our village huts, in the tunnels, bunkers and in the darkness of the fort killing house are restricted to semi-auto fire (single shot) only, regardless of your weapon category. 350fps maximum in these zones - no exceptions. "Bang" kills are permitted (e.g. gun pointed at person and say "bang" instead of emptying into someone at point blank).

True Airsoft

If you don't get hit, you're ok. Basically this means that you can hide behind, and use anything as cover. Ammo tins, shields - even branches if you dare. There is no strict code of play as to what you can and can't do to survive. (That doesn't mean you can pull bases to bits, but you can bring things or utilise the forest).

Pyrotechnics

The use of pyrotechnics at Ground Zero is strictly forbidden. Many areas of the site are very flammable and the insurance does not permit such things. The only pyrotechnic devices we permit are blank firing devices such as hand grenades or pistols. The use of any pyrotechnic device that does not use blank ammunition will result in being asked to leave the site. Maximum Blank Round 9mm (12 Guage Blanks are Banned).

In-Game Marshals

We have lots of marshals, although you may never know it! The majority are players too, distributed on all teams so will always be on the field, and close by, whenever you need one. All you have to do is call out for a marshal, or go to channel 6 on your radio and speak - this is the marshal channel and restricted to that very purpose.

Player Abuse

Verbal (& physical) abuse is not tolerated at all. We have a 0% tolerance with this type of behaviour. You lose it, you're off the site. Simple. Ground Zero is a friendly place with friendly players - we want to keep it that way.

Littering

Littering is not tolerated and you will be asked to leave the site if caught. Bins are provided in all the dead zones and in the safe zone, so there is no excuse.

Tag Numbers

Each team is given a colour, and players are in turn given tags corresponding with this colour. The tags are numbered and the number is registered against your name when you sign in. This is the best way to catch players who may want to cheat - all you have to do is report their tag number, tell a marshal, and that player will be called in for a chat.

Camp Fires

Gas cookers, barbeques (on stands), etc. are all fine. We do not permit open fires however or anything that will damage the grass on the ground.
