There may be no more then 1 medic per four players (1/4 of players).
A medic cannot heal himself; another medic must heal him.

Gun hits do not count.
Medic rules are in effect. Players can be healed twice by a medic before they are considered dead and must respawn.
A medic heals a player by tying as length of coloured tape around his upper arm..
The medic tape may not be removed after each mission. Only after a player is killed and respawns are his wounds considered “reset”.

Once you are hit, you are to call out you are hit and remain in place until the battle is over.
When hit a player has to sit still until either a medic gets to him, or a player from the opposing team gets to him. If the player from the opposing team gets to him, he has to hand over his Intel Package (if he has one).
Regardless of whether he has an Intel Package on him or not, the player has to stay in the spot where he got shot until either a medic gets to him or an enemy player gets to him. He may communicate the fact that he has or does not have an Intel Package.

If the player draws a minor hit card, he can re-join the fight. A minor does not affect his combat effectiveness.
If the player draws a critical wound, he will cease-fire and shout for a medic. At this point the player will no longer be able to return in the fight until his team takes him back to their respawn point.
A critically wounded player must be carried, dragged, or slung to the respawn point.

· When a team’s base is destroyed, that team looses all command and control ability for a period of 40 minutes. That means that:

- All command radios will be ignored (but still monitored in case of injuries or emergencies)

- The team commander will be considered dead for 40 minutes and may not give orders or coordinate actions.
