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.
