Defend the Castle

Teams are broken into 5 or 6 players each. This game mode requires a group of players to defend their home base, while the other team tries to capture it. They have 7 minutes on the clock. If the defending team continues defending their base until the time runs out, they win. When a player is hit, they must stand down by resting along the south wall. If the attacking team captures the homebase by invading the space without getting hit, they win. Only one member from a team needs to still be standing to win.

POTUS

Teams are broken into 5 or 6 players each. One person is chosen as president. The president is given two to four bodyguards. A bodyguard’s objective is  to protect the president from getting shot by the assassins while escorting him/her home. POTUS does not carry a weapon. POTUS has no defense except to duck and hide from their would be assassins. The bodyguards have to follow POTUS at all times.

If an assassin is shot during the round they are out and must sit outside the play area. However, the first time a bodyguard is shot, they may shout out, “I've been hit, take cover!” After their second hit, they must sit  outside the play area. When the referee calls out, “INVINCIBLE,” the bodyguard cannot be shot. This is the time to make big moves to home base.

The game is over when the president successfully reaches homebase without being hit or the assassins make a direct hit on the president.
