BUMP We're getting to the more exciting phases of planning things now, I just finished a first draft of all the missions (
twice as many as last year & twice as frequent!
be excited). E-mails have been sent to previous sponsors & affiliates of Street Wars, we'll let you know about the raffle as things develop (With this economy, we're hoping for the best), Depending on what we get there might be some prizes for Cobra to give out at the night game as well.
Atomc & Canto (That's The Mayor and Capone, for those of you who don't know), I'll be contacting you soon. Among other things, this year we're going to try and give our CO's more information ahead of time and help them more effectively run their teams (with missions twice as often, communication will be key to make this a great event).
I know last year uniforms (and some exploitation of the confusion by players) was a cause of some major calamity, we're getting really tough on them this year.
ABSOLUTELY nobody is getting on the field if they're breaking our pretty specific uniform requirements, we're leaving no room for error or misinterpretation this year. Check it out below.
Alright! so lets get to the specifics of what we've got cooking this year...
Scenario:The year is 1932 and after the truth was reveled as to the specifics of the St. Valentines Day Massacre the Chicago public has turned from Capone and is calling for his arrest. The Chicago PD, with help from the FBI is pressing hard to meet the needs of the public. Despite their best efforts, Capone and his men are having trouble keeping a firm hold on the city without leaving any traces for the cops to pick up on. Evidence is key and time is running out and Capone’s tale could soon come to a close.
As always, we’ll have great props for the scenarios; inert dynamite, real money bags, great costumes and MUCH MUCH MORE! This year uniform requirements will be STRICTLY ENFORCED! We are going to be clear and direct with what we want and If you are not dressed properly, you won’t play (Last year uniform confusion between the 225 players caused some issues and we aim to avoid it). With that said, it’s time to dig out your suits and dust of your Thompson’s boys, it’s gonna be a hell of a fight!
Additional INFO:Uniforms:Please try to differentiate your uniform. Badges/hats are an easy way. This, as well as sticking to the shirt & pant requirements will help things run smoothly. The extra few dollars at a thrift store will make the game better for you & your teammates.
** Don't be stupid and wear dress shoes!
*
Cops:
Light Blue Shirts (Police-Style Button-up shirts preferred, but any light blue top is acceptable.
White Shirts (Again, Button-up preferred)
Any Dark Pants are acceptable (Dark Blue and Black)
*
*
Gangsters:
Mob related wear is ideal (suites, pinstripes, etc)
Dark Tops (Black) are Permitted.
*If you’re wearing a white button-up shirt you must, at all times, have either a very visible black vest (the dress kind, not the tactical kind) or suit coat over it. Keep in mind it could be hot, so having a black t-shirt as well might not be a bad idea in your pack just in case.
***I know some of you have very original outfits that you’ve invested in that may not fit into these pretty specific requirements, so send us some pictures and we’ll let you know if it is acceptable. (If someone wants to wear a full-out dark blue police outfit or a white gangster suit, it will likely be alright seeing as they will be obviously belonging to their respective sides. However, you
MUST HAVE OUR APPROVAL FIRST. The game this year is going to have
6 hours of gameplay (excluding whatever shenanigans we get into at COBRA's free night game) and we're extending lunch to be an hour and a half. Price will be the same as last year , $35.
More info coming soon! let us know if you've got any questions or concerns.
