Covers

All Striking Surfaces must be covered in a durable, opaque cloth and be visually distinct from any Non-Striking Surfaces. Incidental Padding within 0.5” of a Striking Surface must also be covered in this manner. Non-abrasive cloth tape (not duct tape) may be used for Contact Projectiles but it is not an acceptable cover material for melee weapons or arrows.
