cool what larp?

I play N.E.R.O Atlanta and have I sold a lot of reps over the years, at least since 98, so i guess that makes me a Larp "Arms Dealer" too :D

I've recently, just in last 4 years, started making reps like the ones below, otherwise I've made a bunch of the traditional round boffers.

We play a local LARP that a friend is creating... its called F.O.A.M. but I don't remember what it stands for... its like NERO and Amtgard put together. It has the combat system close to Amtgard with the RP aspect of Nero... its a lot of fun. The owner/creator is former Nero-Knoxville and Amtgard-Knoxville. The weapon guide-lines are stricter and thus a lot bulkier swords, so they don't look as cool as that, but its to be expected out of full combat.

ah ok will you be use the heavily added shield like Amtgard too

Nero-Knoxville you say? It's possible I've larp with you and your friend before if you did the regional event that was in Tennessee few year ago or played Nero ETN

He's the Nero guy... I went to a "cave" event a couple years back, but thats about it.

The weapons are about 1.5 to 2 inches thick and about 2-3 inches wide... the shields are fairly well padded. I think its 3/4 inch of camp pad or something like that. (Haven't made any shields yet.)

f.o.a.m sound interesting. I've never made reps in that style.
