(CENTRAL BRISBANE QUEENSLAND) Kelvin Grove, McCaskie Park, Speed Foam Warfare, 22nd of January, 2012 - (SUNDAY)

Why is this called Speed Foam Warfare? Just because there is artificial 'cover' placed around the field and the battlefield is small (40m by 25m)! You will have to be on your feet as staying in one place will result in destruction and massacre!

Basis

Speed #1:
Only 70-75% of your team will be on the field. Respawn rules are that when someone 'is shot', they must return to base and swap with the next person who is waiting in line for their 'turn'. When they reach the respawn point, they must tag the next person in line back into the game. Obviously, one factor for calling it 'speed' is because you must return to base as quickly as possible to get your team going. (Note: If there is large numbers - this rule will apply)

Speed #2:
Being a small playing field, you have to be quick on your feet. Staying in one place may results in a charge or rush causing a massacre (if there are a few in the same spot). It is recommended to split up to run to complete the objective while supporting your team mates through coverfire, distraction and division.

General Warring Rules and Etiquette
1. If you are hit by a dart in ANY part of the body, you are OUT (Hit)
2. If your gun is hit, you are OUT (Gun Hit)
3. If you hit someone and they continue to play, call them out.
4. Don't cheat in general, it's a game of tag.
5. Don't argue with the person who calls a hit on you.
6. Report to one of the organisers about a possible cheater and we will monitor them to see if they continue to do so.
7. Minimum engagement range = 2-3metres | For Air Blasters it’s 8metres
(NOTE: If the person charges YOU, you are able to shoot them at a close engagement range. However, if you charge at them - you will be given a warning)
8. Range Limit of 120ft (40’ish metres) - Big Blasts and Titans are banned.
9. EYE PROTECTION IS MANDATORY (You will most definitely need it in this war as the darts are flying at a higher velocity than HvZ blasters)
10. Melee weapons are allowed IF it is made from very soft foam. If you are to meet or sneak on a player and you have no weapon, just place your hand on there should to say I’ve got you. This is to avoid close shooting encounters from high end blasters
11. You are NOT allowed to pick up darts when you are dead or ‘tagged’. You can pick up darts when you are alive.
12. In case of a situation where both players have shot each other near or at the same time – this is a double kill. Both players must return to the safe zone / or respawn point.
13. When you are shot – you are NOT allowed to communicate with other players. Dead people can’t talk.
14. If children or anybody walks across the field, please halt your fire and screamout 'STOP' and continue the chain to yelling until the kids or other people are off to the field.
15. Please don't take the game too literally and get to serious about it. Nor boast about how good you are, no one likes arrogance or someone who is taking it way seriously. Be casual about it, it's just a game and we're here to have some fun.

- At the end of the day, stay AT LEAST until all the darts have been sweeped off the field and all the tarps have been taken down. I will give instructions at the end of the day.
- EYE PROTECTION IS MANDATORY, IF YOU GOT NONE - YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE
- If this is your first time attending a war, please bring a blaster (and a spare one) that has AT LEAST the AR removal, these darts will not fire effectively if you have not at least done that modification. Use google, if you need help.

Attendees
A list of attendees. If you are willing or might be participating in this war, REPLY to this thread stating the following. Age, any extra friends who are coming and Arsenal of EACH player. Arsenals included modifications on the blaster. Our age limit here is 12YO. So I know a rough estimate of how many darts I need to bring.

heist Drink Sales!

Are you too lazy to walk across the shopping centre to buy yourself a drink? heist is the man for you! He will be selling cans of soda for $1.50 each. Available throughout the course of the day. Damn it's convenient!

SOME CHANGES

- The cover I will be bringing will ONLY be 1.2metres tall. I won't have any 1.8metre tall tarps for the time being as they were a pain to put up. There will be new 'ways' to hold up the cover. 14 Walls in this war.
- 3-4rounds of each game type will be played. 1 Round of Pistols per game type.
- If you have cover, feel free to bring them along, the more cover we have the better!
- Confirmed - Mixture of Heavy Silicone and Lite Silicone Tip darts available. There will be more heavies than lites.
- If you have a Nerf mini pocket howler, feel free to use it in wars, they must hit directly for the 'kill'. Bombard your enemies!
- If you have a stampede shield on your blaster, your gun can be used as a shield. Explained more on the day.
- New Map for next war. Small changes here and there.



First Speed Foam Warfare of the year. Get ready to spray, pray and own!

Hell year!!! I'm so in to this one.

so coming to the war

I'll be there this time, won;'t be missing this one due to a zombie war haha.

Probably won't be in BDUs this time though, but might have my fancy leather duster that makes me look like a badass.

I'm coming from Redcliffe, that's commitment

Before I say I can come I Need to know a few things (as this will be my first nerf war)

1. Will we need to have a set team or will teams be made on the day?

Thats all, either way I'm keen as a bean ;P

Teams are usually set on the day.

Yeap as SC says. Teams are set on the day. We try to balance the teams on age and blasters so we have an 'even' playing field. See you soon!

Sounds good, you can expect to see me there

I will be attending this nerf war, i hope it will be alot of fun as it is my first :). I may bring along my niece as he likes nerf guns.

You mean your nephew if it is a he. Just remember though, we have an age rule of 12+. Just due to the fact that they are usually more cooperable. If he's like under, then unfortunately he'll just have to wait until he's older.

(Be honest) Don't bring him if he's not tough though. Don't want any tears.

It's not that, but some of the bigger guys might knock him over. We had a 8YO at ferny who wanted to participate, his mother was there. I had to get inf0rm3r to explain the risks, but inf0rm3r gave them details of how they contact them.

Hey, long time no talk lol, finally got free time to get back into nerf i might be able to go

Oh hey Revo. How you been? Havent' seen you on for a while!

Yo hey yer I'm good, I've been busy as and As its holidays and blaster are cheaper and now that I work in a hard were store I can nerf now lol, just go a new ls and recon so yer. Ls is gunna get worked +I need a new Mav how's the nerf been?

Yeah the community has been booming. Last KG war = 30-32 people rocked up. I'm goign to have to expand the field soon.

so whats the game play at this one?

Kind of like Speedball for paintball... youtube a speedball game. We'll just be using foam blasters.

ok any restrictions and that? and yer dart hire no personal darts?

Hey, I should definitely be up for it although it will be my first war - would I be ok with a pistol type blaster like a Maverick or a Nite Finder or would I be better off with something like a Raider as well?

Video explains your question =).

That's awesome! Thanks - I'll see you in a couple of weeks!

Can we bring our own stefan darts?
How many darts do we get from DART HIRE?
Thanks

I've just sent you a PM answering you questions =).

Just so you know, you'll lose more money bringing your own darts than hiring it out. It's convenient and it's just easier to deal with in general.

what type of darts are there?

We'll be using heavy silicone tips (75%) and lite silicone tips (25%). I'll have stingers in the car just in case we get a huge turn out.

And the news no-one was waiting for. I'll be there. Have car organised, might have some extra heads organised and almost have all my blasters repaired after the NYE carnagefest at Kingaroy.

ok thanks man, hopefully my ls fgintergration will be done by then lol

We finally meet the almight Dietzie (hopefully!).

Update:

The default prize draw for those attending this war will be an out of box clear nitefinder (Haha I know, dodgey). This prize draw is included in your dart hire.

From the amount of attendees from facebook and interests from OzNerf of attending this war. There is an estimated 40+ people attending this war! If this is the case, there will be another prize draw for a bonus item. I have no idea what it will be, so stay tuned!

Yay!!

Yes i did mean my nephew, thanks for the correction, i wasnt thinking at the time... I am participating but my nephew will not be as he if turning 12 next month. I will see you guys there

If it's only a month away it should be ok as long as he's generally mature.

As long as he's mature and doesn't make a big deal of hitting someone or losing then it's fine.

what guns aren't aloud?

Air guns and anything that shoots more than 40m flat. Make sure it can't shoot through more than two layers of cardboard too.
