The event and property restrictions have been updated. These are basically the do's and don'ts. . Please be familiar with rules, requirement. We want everyone to have a good time without compromising anyone's safety. Thanks!
The event age restriction is as follows:
16 years old or older, no legal guardian required to be present.
Younger than 16 years old, a legal guardian must be present for the duration of the event.
Waivers will be sent to out to registered participants and must be signed and dated by a legal guardian for those under 18.
Waivers can also be found at:
http://havocwargames.com/field/field.html under the section "Please note..." near the bottom of the page.
For those 18 years old and older, you will be required to sign and date waiver if you have never been to The Sandbox. Waivers will be emailed with event information several days prior to the event to those who have either pre-paid on-line and for those who attended BHD, and email their intent to attend Rise of the Insurgents IV for free.
Waivers will also be available at The Sandbox the day of the event, but in order to get through registration as quickly as possible we ask that you fill out the waiver before arriving.
There will be no magazine restrictions, but mid-cap and standard cap magazines are encouraged.
All weapons must chrono at 375 fps and below with .25 BBs that we provide for the chrono. For the event, you may use and size BB. No FPS exceptions, including for sniper rifles.
No Polarstar airsoft rifles. No exceptions.
Do not test fire your airsoft equipment in the staging area. Use the chrono station to test fire all equipment. You must have sealed eye protection or shooting glasses at a minimum to test fire or stand within 20 feet of the chrono area. Shoot in a safe direction away from the staging area and avoid shooting if anyone is visibly present directly in front of you or within 180 degrees of your firing position.
Keep all airsoft weapons unload, magazines out at all times, guns on safe, fingers out of trigger well, and guns pointed away from people at all times until game time. Before starting any mission, staff will ensure all participants are wearing sealed eye protection before announcing “Field is hot! Field is hot! Field is hot!” You may load magazines and set weapons to fire.
Do not move or engage targets until staff announce “Mission is a go! Mission is a go! Mission is a go!”
Play terminates when staff announces “Terminate Mission! Terminate Mission! Terminate Mission!” You must remove your magazines, clear all weapons by firing at least three clearing shots, and putting your weapon on safe. Do not remove eye protection until staff verifies everyone has cleared their weapons and set them to safe. Staff will announce “Field is cold! Field is cold! Field is cold!” You may now remove your eye protection.
During the game, if there is a real world emergency, use the code words “Blind Man! Blind Man! Blind Man!” to alert everyone to the emergency. Everyone should stop what they are doing, put their weapons on safe, and take a knee. Wait for further instructions from staff before resuming the game. If the emergency is false or not serious in nature, the game will resume shortly. If the emergency is serious (death, significant injury such as eye loss, broken bone, snake bite, etc) the mission will end and players will move to the staging area while staff addresses the issue and determines whether or not to end the event in order to handle the emergency.
No real world weapons allowed on the property. This includes all firearms, knives (more than 4 inches in blade length), machetes, axes, etc…)
Do not step over, go under, cut the barbed wire fence. Use the gated entrance to enter and leave the property.
All guests must park on the outside of the barbed wire fence. Only staff members may drive their vehicles on the property or guest with explicit permission from the staff.
Use the restroom facility to relieve yourself. Do not relieve yourself on the field.
Any violation regarding these posted restrictions or any other stated by a staff member could have you excused from the property depending upon the severity of the infraction. Any unsafe conduct or behavior determined to be inappropriate in nature as determined by staff may also have you excused from the property. If staff receives serious complaints about another guest’s behavior such as but not limited to excessive cheating, swearing, malicious intent to hurt someone, destruction to anyone’s property… staff may excuse you from the property. Please be considerate of others and just try to follow the rules and have a good time, and we are sure nothing needs to be escalated to the point of having to ask you to leave.
