    This pic is from the Kingston Event in Nov 2008. Can anyone make me a boffer like this? I like the curved design....very 300ish, Asiany and Middle Eastern... http://picasaweb.google.com/kiko250108/ ... directlink

    Latex Coated Foam

    Yeah, I was a bit surprised about the bow not being an actual bow that can launch an actual projectile. I would love to use a real bow, not hold the bow across from me and then throw a packet -- for the simple reason that I absolutely suck at throwing anything. but I know that with a bow and...

    Latex Coated Foam

    Oh I am not saying that kicking and charging should be condoned unless it is allowed in the rules. But if you are allowed to swing a sword at someone, then swing a sword -- with the proper control of course. I could go into another Airsoft analogy but I won't. Control is the most important thing.

    Latex Coated Foam

    I understand that safety is paramount and will always be a priority since noone wants their weekend to end with one less eye or stitches. Still, with that being said, when you LARP, isn't there still a certain expectation of pain? After all -- and correct me if I am wrong -- but isn't LARPing...

    Latex Weapons in Deadlands?

    No worries, Ray. I was just being a smart *** myself and I knew that you were not being mean. Of course, I would not spend $300.00 on a Katana and Wakizashi unless I knew for a fact that not only can I use one, but more importantly, if I knew in my heart that LARPing is something that I want to...

    Latex Weapons in Deadlands?

    This question is in conjuction with the current discussion in the newbie forum. Are latex weapons allowed -- or will ever be allowed -- in Deadlands? Thanks.

    What race/class can dual-wield?

    how long does it usually take to acquire those skills? sorry, but I'm wicked new and don't quite get all the jargon yet.

    Latex Coated Foam

    Just throwing it out there,....but what if we had some sort of certification course for the use of latex weapons? In Airsoft, our field limit is 370fps. Now there are high-end sniper rifles out there that shoot well over 500fps. However in order to be permitted to field such a rifle, one must...

    As a new player and NPC, what can I expect???

    Okay, this is actually an awesome segue to my next question.... Can I take pictures or is that left to a designated event photographer? My 10 year old daughter has really taken an interest in her Daddy's new endeavor (she calls herself "Micah The Dark Elf") and I told her I would bring back...

    What race/class can dual-wield?

    When I finally get around to creating my PC after NPCing for a bit, I would like a PC that can dual-wield (is that Flourentine?). So I figured I'd ask now.... Thanks.

    Latex Coated Foam

    There's certainly a lot of good points on this thread and I myself would love to be able to employ a latex weapon since I feel that they would add more realism to LARP combat. However, I do understand that it's your house, your rules. At the same time, I have always believed that the fun and...

    I want a cloak

    Well, I have looked online and the only 3/4 hooded cloak that I can find is an Elven LOTR cloak on eBay -- I'm not sure about the construction or materials, but I suspect that it's more Halloween/Costume quality and will not survive an actual weekend of real LARP...

    As a new player and NPC, what can I expect???

    Cool cool. Thanks, guys. Reason I asked about the Kamelbak is because I usually wear one when I play Airsoft. The reasons for this is because during a standard Airsoft Operation/Simulation, I am usually in the field for anywhere from 6 to 8 hours, in full BDUs, about 40-60 lbs of gear, and...

    As a new player and NPC, what can I expect???

    So the opener is barely two weeks away and to be honest, my head is about ready to explode with the countless thoughts of what my very first LARP experience will be. Just a few of the many, many things that are bouncing around in my skull..... - When I get there, where do I go, where do I...

    I want a cloak
