2014 LARPing Calendar

This is the calendar of LARPS that I have the dates to for 2014. It includes Michigan LARPS and some Indiana-based ones. As I get more information I will add to the calendar. I'm still waiting for CARPS and Sanctuary to send in their schedules. https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=0opsub489qq3d...

There is a LARP called SOLARR that has a system much like the one above (they call them Goblin Points) and they have a pretty decent list of what you get points for and what those points can be spent on.

I think Alchemy and Potions could be moved into the Craftsman's bailiwick and just be treated as Exotic Items.

I would have loved to help, but I really won't have the time in a month. Once you've got it all set I'd be more than happy to go through the thing and proofread it if you want.

In 8years of playing in a LARP that allowed shield bashing, there was never an injury as the result of doing it. Shields needed to consist of a plastic core (round saucer sleds being the most common), large quantities of carpet padding and pvc pipe padding, and duct tape. A good shield weight about ...

My only response:

Final Haven is NOT D&D and trying to justify any LARP rules by using D&D's flawed, abstract, unrealistic combat system is an exercise in futility.

They are saying there is a 20% chance of rain on Saturday. So perhaps bringing something in case that happens might be a good idea.

Another LARP I played in has a series of skills called Tactics and it is divided into 4 categories: WAR TACTICS, SMALL UNIT: A character with this skill may form a small unit made up of him self and 2 other characters. While this unit remains intact, the characters in the unit do +1 damage with weap...

I don't want it to be limited to a specific skill (Use Shield). All these skills are usable regardless of the weapon you use, with exception being ranged attacks and are not limited by armor. Fair enough. Perhaps tie them with specific weapon types? Just spitballing. Overall I like the idea of &quo...

in D&D there is a spell I almost always sought out as a mage that rendered him immmune to non magical weapons. for FH might have to have it so that while you were affected you could activate or maintain no non passive skills like parry or def matrix for balance. it already exists.. it's called ...

What if the Defensive Stance was somehow tied into using a shield?

I bring this up because the Offensive stance bonus is weapon specific.


Just a thought.
