Fundamentally, airsoft is played within a fairly large predetermined area where the objective is to hit the opponent with plastic airsoft bb pellets. Generally when a player is hit, they will have to raise their guns overhead and shout “Hit” or “Out”. Depending on the rules laid out at the beginning of the match, they either stay in the place where they were hit (Dead in place), or go to a predetermined area called a “regeneration point”. The rules agreed upon at the start will determine how long the players will regenerate and respawn before being allowed to return to the match. Since the airsoft pellets do not leave any telltale marks on clothing, determining hits is usually based on the honor system.
