Age Limits
Unfortunately we do have to enforce age limits for safety but we are trying to include everyone. If someone is over the age of 18 or older they must properly complete the waiver before they can play, but they can do so on their own. For people between the ages 14 to 18 years of age they are required to have a properly completed waiver by their parents or guardians before they will be allowed to play. For people under the age of sixteen, they will be required to either be accompanied by their parents, guardians or an event guardian. They will still be required to have a properly completed waiver by their parents or guardians but in the case that they cannot accompany their minor an event guardian may be chosen. The event guardian assumes responsibility of the minor’s well being in the event of an injury. The parents or guardians must notarize the waiver and state that they have entrusted their minor with the event guardian.

Eye Wear
The only approved eye wear is fully sealed goggles that meet or exceed both the ANSI Z87.1 and US MIL MIL-DTL-43511D high velocity requirements. Fully sealed goggles means that there is no gap between that lenses and the face. Most industry approved Paintball, Airsoft and tactical manufactured goggled meet these requirements. Mesh masks and goggles are not allowed.

Face Protection
Face protection is mandatory for players under the age of 17. Most standard Paintball and Airsoft manufactured masks would fulfill this requirement. Neoprene face masks are allowed. Balaclavas, Shemaghs, Bandannas, or anything similar will not work. Ear flaps are not necessary but most paint ball masks have integrated ear protection.

19 Novemeber 2010: Ariana launches a pre-emptive strike into Cordova using its elite Tropas Especciales. Tropas Especiales teams target Command and Control nodes, Logistics nodes and Vehicle assembly areas. Coronan and Cordavan forces are caught off guard and are quickly overwhelmed as Ariana's force move swiftly to eliminate their assigned targets. After breaking throuh Cordovan and Coronan front line defenses, Tropas Especiales teams isolate and eliminate all rear area secuity elements encounterd.

20 November 2010: Coronan Air Force launches recon aircraft to develop a clearer of the border penetration. At 0112 Arianan Air Defense targets and downs a Cornan RF-4C. The two man aircrew successfully egress the aircraft after reporting the situation. Corona tries to organize and rescue mission but the loss of key Command and Control facilities hampers communications slowing the Coronan response. When Arianan Air Defense reports downing the RF-4C along with seeing two parachutes, the Arianan Commander immediately diverts a Sniper team and its supporting security element to find and secure the aircrew. 0223: The Arianan Sniper team reports capture of the aircrew. 1200: Arianan forces report all primary and secondary objectives complete and withdraw to their initial phase lines.

25 November 2010: POTCUS addresses an assembly of the Corporate Collective of Nations during which a resolution is passed declaring Ariana a rogue nation and a state sponsor of terrorism for its support of the Phelan Liberation Group. Ariana, in turn, declares its right to self defense to include pre-emption when necessary.

3 January 2011: Ariana releases signed statement from the RF-4C aircrew in which the aircrew confesses to crime against the civilian population. Ariana announces it will try the aircrew for war crimes.

4 January 2011: POTCUS declares the aircrew is entitled to protection as lawful combatants under the Corporate Collective of Nations Conventions of War. General Metzger states "These men forfeited their right to protection as lawful combatants the moment they employed their skills and equipment against civilians. Ariana will not be deterred from providing justice for the people. Those who would attempt to bring harm to Ariana be warned you will be held accountable for your actions in our military courts."

23 April 2011: Coronan soldiers launched a major operation Saturday in support of a planned CJTF attack on the largest Arianan-controlled town in southern Cordava. This is a suspected training camp for PLG extremists. As well as supply depot to transfer weapons and explosives to the terrorists.

12 May 2011: POCTUS announces that the CJTF successfully raided a Ariana terrorist training camp. Corona has destroyed several thousand weapons and several tons of munitions used to supply the PLG extremists. Further, CJFT special forces were able to capture Lieut. Colonel Julio Cesar Salvador, the Tancuri Butcher. The pilots from the November bomb raid were found and returned home. Unfortunately, both were KIA by enemy gun fire during the escape. To secure the region, CJTF is building a base on Cordova's border with Ariana to stem what it charges is rampant smuggling of weapons and fighters.

Corona to build military base on Cordovan-Ariana border
by Staff Writers

Bariah (AFP) May 12, 2011

The Corona military said on Monday that it is to build a base on Cordova's border with Ariana to stem what it charges is
rampant smuggling of weapons and fighters.

The province, currently the theatre of a massive Corona led military crackdown targeting PLG militiamen allegedly involved
in weapons smuggling, shares a 200 kilometer (125 mile) border with Ariana.

It said the base is "not really permanent, although it will be manned 24/7 and will be used for as long as necessary."


The base will also accommodate some of the 2,000 Cordvan Border Patrol soldiers being trained and deployed in the province
to staff new checkpoints being set up to control the border, the military said.

"We've got a major problem with Arianan munitions streaming into Cordova," Major General Jarvis Butts, the commander of CJTF
forces in central Cordova. He added that the base would be a launching platform for the CBP officers to take control of their on borders
with out CJTF assistance.

"This Arianan interference is troubling and we have to stop it."

The newspaper gave further details about the base, saying it will have living quarters for some 200 soldiers, will be built six kilometres
(four miles) from the border and should be completed by August.

On Aril 12th, Butts charged that some 50 members of Arianan's elite Revolutionary Guards were inside Cordova training PLG extremists
to launch attacks on CJTF and Cordovan security forces.

China Slammed on Arianan Arms Trades

France slammed China for breaking the UN arms embargo on Ariana. China recently
sold several surplus of Mi-24, Changhe Z8 helicopters and other weapon. The Chinese
weapons sales to Ariana totaled 21 million dollars. It was reported these weapons were
used to slaughter Cordavaon civilians. The report said China "cannot have been unaware
of reports of serious violations of human rights and humanitarian law by the Ariana
military forces, But they have nevertheless continued to allow military equipment to be
sent toAriana." China was reported to "have been or should have been aware, several
types of military equipment, including aircraft, have been deployed by the Ariana armed
forces for direct attacks on civilians and indiscriminate attacks in Cordova.

Corona and China in row over illegal arms exports
By David Rennie in Secara 12:01AM GMT 20 May 2011

A furious dispute between Corona and China broke into the open yesterday as POTCUS accused Beijing of doing nothing to halt illegal arms exports to Ariana despite repeated high-level pleas from POTCUS.
The Chinese foreign minister denied the charges, saying Coronan complaints had been investigated and found baseless.

"China strictly fulfils all its international obligations and has not supplied any equipment, including military, to Ariana in violation of the sanctions regime," he said. However, since China's fierce resistance to a second resolution authorizing force in Cordova, the gloves have come off in Corona. The Chinese denial was flatly rejected by Corona.

The People’s Liberation Army Chief of the General Staff Gen. Chen Bingde, “I believe we have established a foundation upon which we can explain ourselves, and that we can begin to look forward to mutual transparency about what we are doing, how much we are spending and where we are operating. To that end, I acknowledge the weapons systems and associated equipment in question were in fact manufactured in Chinese factories; however these same weapon systems were purchased by the French company, Dassault Aviation. The end user certificates provided by Dassault Aviation indicate the weapons systems were to be used in dissimilar combat training for the International Peacekeeping Force in Africa. In this transaction, China fulfilled its obligations. Corona may need to more closely examine French involvement in the delivery of these weapon systems to Ariana. The Chinese military believes France is attempting to curry favor with the current Arianan Government through the illicit sale of advanced weapons system in violation of International Conventions while trying to maintain deniability through the delivery of third party weapons systems.”

Taking the dispute to the top, Gen. Chen telephoned his French counterpart, General Elrick Irastorza, to protest at the arms sales. Gen. Chen said: "We are very concerned that there are reports of Chinese weapons systems being provided by a French company to Arianan military forces. A company that has been provided advanced Chinese military hardware to support training an international force. Until such time as you can determine how this hardware arrived in Ariana, China will suspend all weapons sales to Dassault Aviation and support to International Peacekeeping Force in Africa. This is what was discussed in the phone call.

SOB Troops Uncover IED Factory, Terrorist Cell
Story by: Spc. Al Bareass

Tulo, Cordova -- On June, the Soldiers of Blue Platoon, B Company, 2nd Stryker Outremer Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, embarked on a raid that proved to be their most successful in 10 months here.

The target was a residential home in the Ciudad Barranquilla neighborhood. An informant told of the exact layout of the home, and he was right on the money. After thorough searching, the site yielded 23 artillery shells, heaps of wire and electrical triggers and other supplies that could be assembled into more than 50 improvised explosive devices, said Captain. Dustin McCrae, Blue Platoon leader.

Thanks to the intelligence source, Saunder's platoon knew exactly what to expect when entering the house. A warm welcome wasn't included.

"We busted in the house and there were two guys who were in there. One just took off running right as we kicked down the door," said McCrae.

"He managed to escape through the back door and scaled a wall then ran through another house. His brother was in the house also, but we got him."

After all suspects were detained, the search of the home began. Nothing could prepare these troops for what they would find.

"I checked all but one room and didn't see anything, and then I had some of my guys go upstairs to do some searching," McCrae explained. "Right when they opened up they said, "Oh sir, you have to check this out." The room was just an IED workshop. All over the floor were wires, batteries and containers full of plastic explosives. There was even an IED already to go."

Spc. Jason Nelson, a humvee gunner in Blue Platoon was among the first to enter the room with the IED workshop.

"I went into room, and I was just shocked by how much electrical stuff was in there laying on tables. I had never seen that much stuff," commented Nelson. "By then, I already knew we made a big impact. I know having that out of those guys hands, it's safer for us and for the Cordovans."

At that point, McCrae saw he had an operation too big for his platoon of 16 troopers to handle alone. Soon after his men discovered this workshop, the lieutenant called in for the explosives ordinance disposal team to deal with the bombs, and the battalion's quick reaction force to apply more manpower.

When the rest of the backup arrived, more security could be applied allowing for a more thorough search. Metal detector assistance found the artillery shells buried in the back yard.

A taxi cab parked at the home had a wire-rigged assembly in the trunk that could perfectly fit six artillery shells, McCrae added.

Over the seven hours of searching, the list of suspicious items kept adding up: several handfuls of C4 explosives, bags of nails and marbles for shrapnel, tear gas grenades and gas masks, dozens of disassembled remote control cars, 30 cell phones, 50 Sony Playstations.

A beret and armband from the regime's National Guard clued in to who these terrorists" former employer was, McCrae said.

In all, the target was the most fruitful cache of weapons for a home this size in the battalion's history here. It was also a great victory in cracking down on the source of anti-Cordovan attacks in B Company's sector, he said.

"We have been tracking these guys for a month and a half so far. They are linked to some IEDs that have hit our company," McCrae continued. "I think this will make the number of IED attacks in our sector fall drastically."

McCrae said that this operation not only helped keep his troops safe, but put an end to what the terrorists had planned on doing for the elections.

"We heard they were planning to hit a Christian church with their car bomb and just disrupt things before the elections, but we put a kink in that," he said. "Now we just need to find the rest of members of the cell one by one, and who's financing them."
The platoon leader said its missions like this one that remind him of why he enjoys leading troops in combat.

"It's been a great experience doing this job. I can't ask for anything more than to lead a platoon in combat," McCrae concluded . "It's kind of a rush sometimes. It's been something I'll remember for the rest of my life."
