Fantasy because it partially inspired off of real world history meaning the costumes would be easier to make then again a lot of the imperial clothing/armour is based off of stuff from the middle ages or 1700's - early

1900's . Love the idea by the way. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2826569.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2826569.page GMT Re:Warhammer Larp

It is called yelling "die xenon scum" while playing paintball.

I am not sure you can larp a gunfight as well as fantasy stuff]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2826863.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2826863.page GMT Warhammer Larp

You're doing it wrong!

The correct God of all LARPing events is 'Piss'ed' the ancient God of 'getting out your skull on Mead and tonking people with foamrubber weapons until you realise it's not actually dark, you've just gone blind so it must mean it's time for bed'.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913020.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913020.page GMT Warhammer Larp
The moral of the story is: When running around in "armour" brandishing rubber swords and shields, you may attract negative attention. Running around brandishing firearms, rubber or otherwise, is likely to get you shot at. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913155.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913155.page GMT Warhammer Larp http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913450.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370105/2913450.page GMT Warhammer Larp
