TRAVELLER LARP

[Darkhstarr]

My nephew asked me to run a SF LARP at next year's Osfest. Is there any rules for running a Traveller LARP. I remember a few years ago there there was talk about it.

A nice nod to the longevity and heritage of Traveller might be if you could make use of Photon or Laser Tag gear for personal combat.

Heh, I played in the first Photon arena in Dallas- would have been wonderful except for the horrible technical glitches.

Thanks for the input. However, the con seems to have folded.

Hm. A LARP involving characters chasing each other around with hard-ish sci-fi looking guns. What could possibly go wrong?

Note: I have actually seen this happen. A friend of mine did a large-scale water pistol fight at university one night, which wound up in an armed offenders callout (That's S.W.A.T for those of a more American persuasion). This happened in New Zealand nearly 30 years ago.
