There are 7 staple types of battles in combat larp, but that's not all. It just scratches the surface of possible types of conflict. While the previous post was about seven simple kinds of battles, this post is about one which requires a bit more gear. For certain themes of larp, this type of battle may be crucial. Careful though, if you want 'simple' or 'low set up', probably skip this one. But hey, larp is all about logistics, right!?

Still Alive!
Hello!
So selling a condo and buying a house is a lot of work! Who knew. We're inching closer to selling our current home and buying a new home. Which means half our lives are packed up in boxes, and the other half has to be packed up during this week. Over the next month we'll be staying at relatives houses, so posts might still be spotty.
But the good news is that after we move I get a room to decorate as I please! 'Larp Cave'? Yes! Workbench, raw material storage? Yes! The finished basement room itself is 22 feet by 16 feet. It has wood paneling with a fireplace. I plan on making a workbench, in the unfinished part of the basement, an armor stand (that can display my armor and the helmet I never use). Decoration will mainly be banners that can be used for NPC houses.
So needless to say, I am super excited about the move. It's a ton of work, but changing from a condo to a house means I can have space to get crafty! So, despite not having time to blog, I am still working on larp stuff, and once we get moved in there should be a ton of content to share here. In fact I have to cut this post short, it's time to practice!

Some thoughts on Writing a Larp.
Thinking about and working on the 4x larp rules set is interesting to me. Unfortunately it seems like it's not very interesting to many other folks. It is beginning to feel like too much work for too little audience. But it would be a shame to abandon the project completely. In the parlance of Entrepreneurship, time to pivot.
