    yea took it with my phone but you can get the point with the coins. the one that looks like a copper really isnt. its the reverse side of the silver(the “tails” side is the same on all three coins). I actually dont have a copper right now but its the same size as the silver with the look and feel of a penny and it has a harp on the “heads” side. some people call the different coins Harp, Sheild and Dragon.

    wow i had no idea it was so involved. actually sounds kinda cool now, or at least legit.

    yea this game has been around since i think 97. its a living thing so there are patches to the rules every now and then but the basics stay the same. the only thing that turns people away is that after your first event(which is free) there is a $25 charter fee to the BSA and it is $50 per normal event. that does include food, renting the camp for the weekend, and other necessities. its really actually worth the price.

    going in the morning to travel to North Virgina to go to the other chapter of this same larp for the first time. is supposedly a “more civilized place” meaning ill probably not get away with stealing as much as I do at the NC chapter. all in character of course…

    If it’s premeditated you go get staff before you do it and they will probably go with you. if its a theft of opportunity then you find staff asap after the fact. you have to hide the prop and tag(together) for the rest of the event. at the end you give the prop back to staff and keep the tag. the prop is then returned to the owner. so far all I have stolen is coin because people like to leave their pouches open.

     

    if you get caught stealing someones OOC stuff they you get banned from the game and the popo is called

    oh I miss read your post I thought you asked WHAT is the result. and no it wasnt he OOC i know he killed me to go into a more powerful form that you have to eat someone to use. inc all i know is he jumped behind me and everything went dark. then I woke up in the earth circle.

    OMG I just realized how brilliant LARPing could potentially be, it’s like a work-out for fatties that are also nerdies and out of shape! You hear it guys, do a couple of sessions of LARPing and you will be shocked to feel your own rippling abs begin to appear! I wanna be the marketing manager for LARP!

    If you market it as exercise you’ll be fired for running the nerds off.

     

    Just a heads up lol

    Not going to do that, just gonna talk about how you have magical abs after about 6 months and you suddenly weigh 30-40 lbs. less! :P

    lol I lost 13 pounds this weekend. yay for slight malnutrition and over exertion. oh and 95 degree weather. we only had 3 people out of 150 drop from heat sickness and that was their own *edited* fault. i kept shoving water at them the whole event but they kept saying they were fine.

    Ya know, your larping and all its role-playing is cool and all, but question? Is this really considered a game? lol?

     

    I would call it more of extreme acting, lol

     

    Best idea I could come up with to describe the genre. What would you guys call larping?

     

    Just read this was in the “Alternate gaming topic” and automatically thought this, lol.

     

    And as a side note, yes mike, H.V.Z IS a game, I call it extreme tag!

    HVZ is L4D with fake ammo. It needs to be paintball. Make the zombies be ninja for their food.

    I be fine with just the skrimishes like what we did in amtgard, get hit in the leg loose the leg, hit in the arm loose the arm, chest shot is auto-death and keep doing that repetivly til you cant run around beating ppl with foam padded pvc anymore.

    The game has a combat system as well as other types of system and an economy, at the least it is an RPG game that takes place in real life.

    Yea bitey beat me to it. if there were not so many rules and systems i would agree with you Daniel but it is definitely a game. now if it was purely role play and no combat, Talents, or skills it would be continuous improv but its so much more than that.
