All players are required to be familiar with the safety rules and abide by them. Many of these rules can be found in Chapter 9 and Chapter 11 of the KG Rulebook. Additionally, there is a safety briefing given for the benefit of new players at every event. Experienced players are encouraged to attend these briefings from time to time to refresh their memory (and to share their experience with newer players).

All weapons must be checked by a Safety Marshal at every event.

Finally, everyone participating in a King's Gate event is required to have read and signed a copy of the Red Button Safety Waiver.
