The 8th Version of Amtgard rules, as of 2014-05-13, have not yet come out and are still in development.  They are close to completion though and there are several parks that are play testing the Version 8 rules.  The most recent version of the Version 8 rules is 0.7.4 which is a Release Candidate.

The rules are considered much more newbie friendly than the 7th version of the rules were and are expected to pass at [[Clans]] later this year.  There will likely be one more update to the rules before Clan and it will only contain minor fixes like spelling and grammar mistakes.
