Armored Combat:Conventions - Rules of engagement - Helpless opponents

Helpless opponents

1. You must not deliberately strike a helpless opponent.
2. Depending on the scenario or tournament rules, you may be allowed to declare a helpless opponent dead, ask them to yield, or allow them to regain the ability to continue safely.
3. If you get an unfair advantage by repeatedly becoming "helpless" (for example, by falling down or losing your weapon), the marshals will warn you, and if you do it again, they will force you to yield the fight. However, your opponent can ask the marshals to let the fight continue.
