SPECIAL TEAM UNITS

If at any time you wish a break from being a special unit, please see the Game Director or your general as he will appoint someone else to that role so your team is not deprived a valuable resource.

Medic: A medic is identified by a strip of white tape on their arm below their team colour arm band.

The opposing team may continue to fire at or mercy a hit player “calling for a medic” until the hit player calls themselves HIT or surrenders. If a medic cannot get to you within 60 seconds you are eliminated. A hit player will raise they're hand above they're head to indicate to the enemy they have surrendered.
