Along with these A&S classes, there will be an all afternoon fighting class. Think of it more as ditching, but Norm and Gemini are going to explain why they killed you, and how you could have blocked it, after they run the rest of your line. This class will be as structured or not as those in attendance would like it to be. This will be a forum of fighting theory with hands on instruction.

* The Company battle will be a series of three ransom flag battles. Each will be 25 minutes, with a 5 minute break between. Each team can field up to 5 members per round, but must designate a captain and provide a distinctly colored flag. Players can be subbed out between rounds and deaths, except in the class battle. The first round will be a traditional ditch battle. When you die, you wait at your team's base for the rest of your team to also die, then you can come alive as a unit. Unlimited lives. The second round will be a militia battle. No death count, just let your nirvana reeve know to take a life out of your teams pool, and each team will have a pool of 25 lives. The final round will be full class. Points will be awarded between rounds based on how many flags are held by each team's captain when time is called. Two points if a team has it's own flag, and one point for each other flag.
