Check out the forums and pictures for an idea on how sci fi can actually work in LARP and is very roleplay conductive as well as realistic. The game uses a freeform and open ended style similar to PDs Maelstrom (which i play) but presents it with a near future gritty realism.
As one of the event organisers i am very interested in the article so far and any comments or questions are welcome. We have been running games for some time now and our player base is growing and i think with modern technoloy the bridge between science fiction and science fact is shrinking and given some thought can be presented well as a LARP system. Check out the game and see for yourself that guns and roleplay do in fact mix very well indeed.
Feel free to drop me a line at grand_justicar@yahoo.co.uk if you have questions or comments or contact the game team via our forums at the above website. "Rule Number One: Blades dont need reloading!"
