I'm looking to get a trench club for my ww1 kit. Would that be a suitable weapon for this game. All larp safe of course.

Regards,

Ralph

GOOD TIMES

Posting a video I did , (a lot of old timers are In the still photos at the end)

Oh WOW!! Great to see so many old friends in that! :good:

And one rule we haven't yet mentioned - NO SMOKES!!! It just doesn't disperse.

I've got three candidates that seem typical of the type of weapon that was made in the trenches.


They're all LARP safe so foam weapons covered in latex. Let me know what you think.

Ralph

I don't think they fill them with peas any more, do they? Anyway, any non-pea grenades to the equivalent of mk 5 will be fine. The tunnels amplify the explosions greatly.

And just in case people didn't hear the first time: NO SMOKES!!!

The first game we played there, the rules were clearly laid out: no smokes, and no peeing in the tunnels - and some plonkers broke both rules. :slap:

They've made some serious upgrades to the tunnels since you were last there including a flushing toilet, so should you really feel the need to pee in the tunnels, you may now do so!

Forgive me if it is posted elsewhere but I couldn't see any info....unless I am going blind.

Do people mind just going over the FPS limits for this game?

Cheers!

Absolutely 350 fps max, may even go so far as to say 1.14 joules chrono using the ammo you intend to use in game. Engagement ranges in these tunnels can be point blank and we will not tolerate a hot gun.

The tunnels are the perfect environment for low powered weapons such as springer 'holster filler' pistols etc. The last game I played there I used a hop-less STEN with no problem!
