About SFH

SFH is a deathmatch squad for Novalogic's Delta Force II. We are organized on a ranking system which is very similar to that of the armed forces. This page describes our rules, regulations, and overall structure.

SFH Rules of the Game

Section I: Requirements for Recruitment

In order to join SFH, one must meet one of the following criteria:

1. Receive an invitation: These are only valid if issued by officers. Officer is designated as anyone with a rank above Sergeant Major. The ranks are listed in Section IV.

2. Apply for acceptance from our site. Click HERE to proceed to the application page.

Section II: Once you've joined...

After you have become a member of SFH, You will need to do a couple of things in order to get ready to play.

1. In Delta Force, create (or rename) a character to fit the following pattern:

[rank] [name] =SFH=

In order to shorten the names of characters, please use the symbols found in Section V for the space marked "rank" above

2. Download AOL Instant Messenger from http://www.aol.com. Then email your screenname to the CO.

3. Any time you use the character created above, you must abide by all rules found in Section III.

Section III: Regulations for all SFH members

1. SFH has a chain of command. You are expected to follow it. We are lenient about things like names... you need not address a superior officer as "Sir." Just follow any orders... that's all we ask.

2. SFH does not appreciate name-calling. We believe that our kill counts should speak for us. Each member of SFH is to be professional about his/her abilities. There should be no "in your face" chatting going on. The penalty for anyone caught breaking this regulation is demotion.

3. SFH despises those who think that cheating makes the game interesting. Any SFH member caught cheating will be immediately dismissed... no exceptions.

4. Each member is expected to keep an eye out for any really good players who might be recruited. Although only an officer can issue an invitation, anyone may refer a prospect to our site.

Section IV: Ranking

The ranks in SFH are similar, but not equivalent, to the ranks available in the US Army. The table below lists from lowest rank to highest:

Private	E1	All enlistments start out here unless otherwise approved by a General
Private First Class	E2	Promotion received after first deathmatch which you lead at the end of the match*
Corporal	E3	Promotion after 10 deathmatch wins* or awarded by an Officer (in green and red, below)
Staff Sergeant	E4	Promotion after 1 month as a corporal or Officer's discretion
Sergeant	E5	Promotion after 6 months as a Staff Sergeant or General's discretion
Sergeant Major	E6	Promotion to this point only by order of a General
Warrant Officer	W	Must be promoted to this rank by a General or Volunteer to host Deathmatches on NovaWorld
2nd Lieutenant	-	Promotion only by order of a General
1st Lieutenant	=	Promoted by order of General or be an officer for 3 months
Captain	-&-	Promotion by order of General or Volunteer to organize SFH Website/Schedule, etc.
Major	=&=	Promotion by order of a General, or reach the rank of W and volunteer to lead a detachment
Brigadier General	*	Must be granted this rank by a * or ** - Requirements for generals listed in Section V
Lieutenant General	**	Must be Brigadier General for 1 month
Major General	***	Must be promoted by a ****
General	****	Must be a General for 1 month and win a deathmatch by at least 25 points*

* The squad member must either be in a game with an officer or have a witness to vouch for him about these wins... Screenshots are preferred, but Witnesses are accepted.

Section V: Requirements for Officers

The officer corps is not segregated from the enlisted person's corps. However, because of the title of Officer, more is required from them than from the enlisted personnel. Anyone can be an officer, but there are alternate ways to skip through the chain of command.

1. I, the commanding officer, do not have time to keep up with an extensive website. I can keep the group in order, but that is about it. If you are good with HTML/JavaScripts... you have a commission as an officer. You may have the rank of Captain if you volunteer to keep up this website for us.

2. One player can only coordinate a few people. Therefore, anyone who reaches the rank of Warrant Officer and volunteers to take charge of a squad within the squad may do so with an immediate promotion to Major.

3. Officers are allowed to invite people to join our squad. However, NO ONE may have a rank higher than Staff Sergeant without the approval of a **General, ***General, or ****General. Therefore, DO NOT promise anyone any rank higher than Staff Sergeant.

4. Be forewarned... the rules that apply to all enlisted personnel are exponentially more important for you. As officers, YOU set the example for the rest of our team and anyone caught breaking any of our rules loses his/her commission... reduction in rank to Sergeant. That is FINAL.
