Airsoft GI Universal Game Rules
Magazines Allowed - Any type of magazine is allowed with any gun (example: High Caps, Box Mags, Mid caps, Standard Caps, etc.) Adding box mags, high caps, etc. does not reclassify your gun as a support weapon for purposes of FPS limits, please see the D14 field rules below.

Hard Respawn – This is a respawn location that is not mobile. Players may come back and tap this location to immediately re enter the game.
Mobile Respawn – This is a flag that can be moved around the battlefield by the controlling team so that friendly players may respawn. Once the flag is under fire, players may no longer respawn there and the flag must be moved out of the line of fire in order to be used for respawn. These flags may be captured by the enemy team.
