LHR uses a Chain of Command (COC) in the organization of teams, relay of orders, and flow of information to achieve success on the battlefield.
All orders from your COC must be followed at all times except when those orders contradict the Code of Ethics or other policy.
Members must raise any issues or complaints through their COC. Members cannot jump over their COC. In the event that the issue or complaint is regarding a member’s direct COC, the member should submit the issue in written form and request it be forwarded up the COC. The member’s COC must forward the written issue or complaint to the next level of the COC.

Section 8: Loyalty
As a LHR member, you are not allowed to, as a member of another gaming organization, play a game that LHR offers. We expect that you will play that game with LHR and support our team!
As a LHR member, do not share our strategies or tactics. Our field leaders work hard to develop them for their teams.
We encourage members to wear their LHR tags with pride outside the games LHR plays, but this is not a requirement. Wearing tags or not, remember that you represent LHR at all times. We understand loyalty is earned, and LHR will work hard to earn yours, but we will not hesistate to remove members that violate these rules.
