(RULES CONTINUED)

--GAME-MECHANICS--

-MELEES-
-punching/kicking &elbows...general blows...will be made softly but swiftly, and will result in a stun (3sec freeze) a combo of moves will result in a beatdown (after a 'beatdown' you will lay in 'coma' for 3mins)...this does not include wrestling
-wrestling/grabs and restraints...grabs and wrestling is going to be the 'tough' part of simulations. as long as there are no arms around the front of the neck, and no hands in the face. no two arm holds, GRABS ONLY!!!...if pinned (both shoulders on the ground, FLAT!) then the person pinned will lay in 'coma' for 3mins. If grabbed, the player who is grabbing the onther player must not hold longer than 2min without restraining. Anyone in restraints can only be held in restraints for 5mins, after which they will have picked the restraints or found a way to cut them. To prevent escape of a restrained opponent, take them prisoner.

(GAME MECHANICS CONTINUED)

-taking POW's...this may be accomplished by restraining the opponent first then calling 'POW!'...after calling 'POW!" the prisoner must follow orders or become executed...once a prisoner has been captured they CANNOT BE RELEASED UNLESS 1) RESCUED BY A TEAM MATE; 2) EXECUTED AND SENT BACK TO RE-SPAWN; 3) FREED BY CAPTORS; 4) ESCAPE.

-butt-stocks and melee tools...this depends on the tool. if its blunt and heavy (FAKE crow-bar, baseball bat, baton, sledgehammer or buttstock) will cause a stun for 3secs, another following will result in 'coma' for 2mins. melee kills can be made by blunt objects if the opponent(s) are struck once more after the 'coma'/'beatdown' strike. (so strikes without a weapon cause 'coma' after 2 and a 'kill' after 3. knives and other deadly melee tools will result in a kill after 2 strikes, but one vital strike will cause a bleedout. hand kills will be a combo or 'beatdown' with an added strike, so 3 hits will 'coma' 4 hits will kill)
