CrabHeart 02-25-07, 06:38 PM	ok heres how ive plotted it out. me and my brother are going to bring our own partys... each person is going to chip in $20 (even partys)and its going to be put in "the pot" and the pot will be put at the end of this 1000 acres the two partys will be rivaling for this "fortune" you must go and get it and bring it back. its going to be in a location so that it will take atleast a day to get. so each party will need camping gear. so by 7:00 each day when it starts getting dark each party can decide to "go on" in the night or camp. encountering: probubly not gonig to happen in such a large area.. but if the two do encounter i will have to make some rules for a larping battle. ive never "larped" before so if there are any written rules ide like to know. and yes we are going to work on this with "pain" not "real" swords but not foam. they will be pvc plastic so they will hurt when hit... we will all be mature enuf to not aim for the eyes or the head.. bruses happen and we can take them... or surender... and the bows will have a weighted end on them.. nothing sharp... or real heavy... just enuf to leave a pretty bad nick. its pretty much winning 20 each person so your fighting for your money. i will regulate the legality of the gear... sunrods can be made out of some special l.e.d. rig. and what not.. itll be cool... ide just like some more input o and where can i get some d&d/mideval clothing? and where can i get a mideval longbow? or a somewhat compound bow... i know they didnt exist in the mideval times..but if someone makes them like they are in d&d itd be lovely

Also, have a cell phone, flares, or something like that handy IN CASE something happens. 2) PVC pipe is a good thing, but you want to know something that's more fun? You buy pipe insulation, foam, duct tape, and different colors of electrical tape. The duct tape will take the place of anything that's silver, while electrical tape can come in brown, black ... yellow .. Tape the insulation to the PVC and any "pointy" or "stabby" parts get a nice 1" portion of insulation. This will eliminate the "pain" aspect of your game ... but dude ... you can just WAIL on each other, Leave portions where your hand will grip the weapon without insulation, but everything else will get foam/insulation. 3) Agree on something (maybe expensive) being armor. And when that person is hit they can yell out "armor" and their armor absorbs the first blow. 4) Also, have team leaders. It just helps, because maybe ... you want to leak false information before the weekend ... or ... something ... Be safe. Anything you stab has the potential to do a lot of unexpected REAL damage.
