Battlefield Etiquette

Everyone processes the game differently so it is important to communicate early and often with your opponents. Keep the Honor System Responsibilities in mind as you work with your opponent to execute the game rules as best as you can.

  1. It is the responsibility of the victim of an attack to call the location of strikes against them. If the victim is unsure or didn't realize they were struck, the attacker may clarify and call out what they believe happened. If the attacker is unavailable, such as in the case of a run-by or long-range projectile, then the victim should take whatever they believe is most likely to have occurred.

  2. As long as you and your opponent(s) agree on the outcome, the exact details of any encounter are moot. It's okay to be slightly inaccurate if the alternative is wasting time in the middle of battle trying to sort out the fine details.

  3. Do not call the strikes of other engagements unless the players involved are asking for your opinion.

  4. If you notice a player is repeatedly ignoring strikes that you believe are connecting, ask them about it politely in the form of a question (“Did that connect?” “Where did that land?” “Was that hand or arm?”). If the behavior continues, bring the issue to the attention of a Reeve and they will seek to resolve it. Do not confront the player directly again after this point, even if you believe you have a good rapport with them. Allegations of misconduct are often much better received when filtered through the proper channels and handled with care.
