Weapon Competency Assessments
New or inexperienced players wishing to use a weapon classification they have never used before must first demonstrate Weapon Competency to ensure safe performance on the battlefield. Players who demonstrate unsafe weapon use during this assessment or at any point thereafter may have those weapon privileges revoked by a Rules Authority.
Whenever possible, this inspection should be administered or aided by someone with knowledge and experience of the weapon in question, as appropriate. In particular, Archery and Weapons over 6ft are some of the most potentially dangerous aspects of our game and should be treated as such during competency assessments.
In the absence of a someone with experience, the following step-by-step guides will help an Equipment Inspector administer a basic competency check.
