[wbc_heading tag=”h3″ heading_style=”heading-3″ align=”left” title=”How do you play Laser Skirmish at Code Red?” p_left=”20″ color=”#ffffff”]

[wbc_heading tag=”div” align=”center” title=”After players put on their game packs and have been briefed, the game is started by one of our Marshalls. The pack is activated and allows the player to fire their phaser at opponents and devices within the Arena. Each pack has sensors on the phaser (Front and back of the pack and on the shoulders). Tagging these areas will gain points to the attacking player while deactivating the tagged player for a few seconds. After the game has finished, the packs shut down automatically and players return to the armoury room. Score information is downloaded from the packs to the central computer and displayed on the scoreboard.” font_size=”15″ m_bottom=”45″ max_width=”750″ m_left=”auto” m_right=”auto” m_top=”15″]
