Team Death Match: It's Dead Easy.

The Team Death Match Mission

The Death Match Game is simple.

The mission: eliminate the enemy. It is also known as "TDM" for short.

Gamers fight a battle of attrition.

For a Live-Action Gaming experience, we highly recommend using Supply Crates.

This game can be played in any terrain: outdoors, indoors, or on an inflatable field.

Both teams receive unlimited respawns from the Medic Box at their base.

Since the Medic Box setting can be found on the Recommended Options list, this game can be set up quickly! The team that makes the most number of kills, wins!

As this mission is low complexity, it's a great introductory game. As this game doesn't require as much running as others,

it's perfect for warm weather. Gamers can choose to be slow and sneaky as they move through the field, as there's no need to rush in.

The Secret Sauce: Supply Crates

The difference between an ordinary "Team Elimination" game and a TDM Mission is the Supply Crates.

When running missions for pre-teens and older, they must have something to encourage them forward.

Since TDM is a big game of hide-and-seek, gamers will often embed themselves in a good hiding spot and stay there. This makes for a boring game. To counteract that, and boost the overall experience, set up some Supply Crates.

With less than 10 players

You can place 1 Supply Crate in the center and turn on Scavenger mode. This is found on the Master Controller under "Game Adjustments".

What happens in this mode is that when a gamer kills an opponent, they pick up a copy of any item that the gamer has a random. So if the opponent had an Epic Mini Gun, they had a decent chance of getting it for themselves. This way, even if one team dominates the crate, the players have a chance to collect upgrades and fight back!

With 10 - 20 players

Set up 2 Supply Crates several paces away from each base. Each team should have somewhere to hide while they collect supplies, however, the two crates should be in the line of sight of each other. This way, as players dash in and out of the area, they will be under fire. It's guaranteed action!!

With 20+ players

Once you get to twenty players, you want to spread out your players. The best way to go is to have 3 Supply Crates. One goes in the middle, while each team gets a Supply Crate close to their Medic Box. This allows everyone to pick up epic upgrades while also encouraging the gamers to storm the middle.

What do you need to run this mission?

X number of Taggers
A master controller or Scoreboard app
A radio repeater (if playing in a large area)
3 x Battle Boxes
