This is what I had drafted up before for a fort league.
Here my latest swing at it.
ZvZ Rules
- Fortitude armors are allowed (Chilling armor must be reset each duel).
- No non-amazon skills (Enchant, BO, Teleport, Werebear, etc).
- No cube in inventory.
- No chance to cast % curses/skills (Exceptions include: torch, fort, default spawn mods from crafts).
- No slow target (Nosferatu's Coil is Banned).
- Regular throw is allowed.
- No elemental skills or scs (fury/bolt)
- Multi is allowed but don't abuse it, see the What's BM exactly? section below.
- Inventory checks can be requested at anytime during a duel.
- Maximum Replenish Life is 22.
- Only one piece of open wounds gear allowed.
- Slow missiles is banned.
- Do not leave blood moor.
- Do not target your opponent until "g's"
- Do not use mercs.
- Change sides on map every duel if agreed upon.
- You are not allowed to cross the bridge if a bridge is present.
- Circling around walls/Constantly staying near a corner/house etc, isn't GM. See the What's BM exactly? section below
- Halting the duel to buy more arrows is allowed if agreed upon.
- Duels take place in Nightmare, map must be cleaned before the match starts.
What's BM exactly?
"The Multi Rule 3 volley rule" - You may not shoot more than 3 multi without taking a different offensive action (jab/ga/throw).
"Circling around walls & houses" - They may be used for what they are, breif obstructions that can break a NL trail of guided arrows.
You may not use as a wall between you and your opponent. Circling around these objects is abuse! Break the NL and move on.
"Constantly staying near a corner/house" - You may not camp a corner spot and spam in an area with only one way in/out for extended period of time ( ex: hallway with bridge)
I am in no way saying you can't defend yourself if you are cornered, just you may not barricade yourself within 3 walls and shoot 350 arrows at only entrance point for an entire duel.
Ladder Rules
- Duels are first to 5, one set. You do not have to win by 2.
- When challenging on the ladder, challenge one or two spots up the ladder. Make sure to post all information for both participants and send a personal message to the player you challenged ASAP.
- If you lost the match, will have to wait for 24h before challenging anyone (this way lower ranks will have an opportunity to challenge you).
- Screen Shots can be requested at any time, of inventory and screen to make sure there is no pre-buff items, or the use of tmc, or other illegal performance enhancing hacks - If pre-buff gear is found, or a form of hacking, you will be kicked out.
- You can Re-challenge a user 2 days after the first match.
Inactivity / The Dodge Rule
- After a challenge has been posted, it will stay open on the forum for 4 days. If the defending user does not accept the challenge, or the match does not take place within 4 days of the initial post, the challenger will automatically win the match due to the "dodge rule." (exceptions to this rule can be judged by the staff)
*The challenger must PM the person defending for the "dodge rule" to be in effect. Do not try to go around this, you will be removed from the ladder.*

Was supposed to be inspired by the d2pk fort zvz back in the day.
I really want to make videos for the " whats bm section" to clear away all the vague language around the subject.
