[QUOTE=itisjuly;47165744]Casual racism?[/QUOTE] it's like you think he's implying people beating each other with homemade toy weapons somehow makes white people superior

7:20 hammer guy move is totally underrated. He does a 360, hits one dude's spear that goes flying into another dude's leg. He basically disabled 2 people in one 360 swing.

I wanna see someone use the Dragon Slayer.

[QUOTE=theevilldeadII;47178073]I wanna see someone use the Dragon Slayer.[/QUOTE] I'd probably make one like this [img]http://i.imgur.com/18zuiwy.png[/img] and have a chainlink at the top of the hilt so you can attach it to a hook on the back of a body harness. (best paint skills)

This looks really fun, just looking at it makes me smile. I wish I could be there. I'd probably get rekt by hammer guy though.

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;47128967]larps are most fun when its just "beat the hell out of each other with foam weapons" much like this is[/QUOTE] larps are most fun when the battles are taken "seriously" while the whole roleplaying aspect is downplayed. Haven't done it for a few years now, but fighting a large battle in chainmail, gambeson and equipped with a wooden shield and a (latex) sword is an embarrassingly huge amount of fun. You get tired, everything hurts after walking around with the equipment for 8 hours straight, but that's part of the experience. That's not to say that I don't see the appeal in the more serious stuff, I just have a way too hard time taking it seriously. Larping can be fun whether it's taken seriously or not, as the op clearly shows.
