This discussion makes me miss my days of playing in Dagorhir. We were talking about getting a game of Dagohir going in the local park and get like 50 people on each side in an event called LARP in da Park but we never got interested enough to try it.

This discussion made me think of my days in the SCA and heavy list and light weapons combat.

This discussion made me think of when I built an 8' long spear for Dagorhir and made the game not fun for my friends anymore.
Screw that sword and board stuff.

Yeah, one of my buddies had a lot of martial arts training and my other buddy was just insane, so they always owned me with shield and sword hence the switch to using a spear. Keep those fast, sneaky bastards as far away as possible.
We stopped playing Dagorhir after the police rolled by to ask us what we were doing and we sheepishly told them we were "sword fighting."
We weren't exactly the coolest 16 year olds.

I should have anticipated a lot of airsoft folks having a bit of history dabbling in Dagorhir and other LARPs.... but I'm glad to see it! If any of you guys think you'd be interested in a hybrid LARP game with airsoft/melee components, PM me for details. There will be playtests happening throughout April and May.
PS- Don't worry, spears/glaives/halberds still own on the Dagorhir battlefield. Luckily there are ranged weapons like bow/arrow can even the playing field. Rock paper scissors!
