  Hostile Fire restrictions- BB and or Nerf/ "rocket" might not be allowed against certain vehicles due to risk of damage. Pay attention  during the briefing to what vehicles will be in play, and what you are allowed to shoot at them. Be sure of your targets identity before you fire. Typically, any vehicle that cannot be fired upon, cannot be used as cover. When BB fire is allowed against a vehicle, players are allowed to fire through open doors, hatches and gun ports and at exposed turret gunners. Players are NOT allowed to run up too a vehicle and stick their muzzles into doors or gun ports. Their is no "bang" killing of vehicles, their crews or passengers. Players within vehicles ARE allowed to bang kill players outside the vehicle, so long as they are within 10 feet and can get clear line of sight.. DO NOT throw any kind of "active" exploding/pyro grenade inside (cab) vehicles, the bed of a truck is ok.  Vehicle elimination-- The specific means of. eliminating a vehicle may vary by scenario, but in general, the following methods will eliminate a vehicle and all passengers. A direct hit by a nerf rocket from and anti-tank cannon, bazooka,  LAW rocket, AT-4 , RPG-7,  a grenade (must go off, no dummies)  or mortar fire. Vehicles may be engaged  while stationary or moving. Vehicles cannot shoot or be shot while crossing either of the bridges made of railroad ties.. Driving over the top of an anti-tank landmine- the vehicle does not need to actually hit a mine with one of its tires, merely drive over a section of mined road/trail. Since this will typically only happen if the vehicle crew did not notice the mines, they may have to be politely informed of their demise. Complete elimination of the crew by BB fire- in some circumstances, it might be possible to eliminate the entire crew by BB fire (i.e. a door was left open, exposing the driver and crew) IN such case the vehicle is considered eliminated. Vehicle drivers must be at least 18 years old, or older. If possible vehicles will have Ref/safety person who cannot be killed. Vehicle owners are responsible for providing crews. Pick up trucks are the preferred vehicle. Other vehicles will be considered on a case by case basis. Vehicles must be in a safe operating condition to use. If it runs on 3 or 5 cylinders- that's ok, but if it leaks oil or any fluid you will clean it up. Drivers and refs will have a radio and be in contact with game manager/head ref. A machine gun may be mounted, or an air operated "cannon" shooting nerf type "rockets".  The number of vehicles may be limited during gameplay for safety reasons. You may "armor" your truck with plywood or metal, but your design must be approved by Travis before use.
