Date: July 14, 2012
Time: 10-Whenever
Where: John Adams Elementary: 1492 Axel Ave, North Brunswick Township, NJ 08902

View this map with a detailed legend in a larger window.



Rules:
-Eye protection is mandatory.
-I would prefer if blasters that originally fire ammo larger than a mega have an OPRV, preferably at stock pressures.
-General duchebaggery will not be allowed, and we will tell you to GTFO.
-Don't bring all Black or camo guns.
-No age limit, but if you're getting annoying we will tell you to leave.
-Gun hits count.
-No shields, no exceptions.
-Barrel taps allowed, just don't jab at someone.
-No singled Titans/Cobras/etc. (of course you can bring them for fun)
-I will be enforcing the rules for "Blast from the past" rounds.

Rounds: Normal rounds with the exception of post midday:

We'll be playing a few "Blast from the past" style rounds to see how it goes. This means that we'll be using pullbacks/lever actions/airguns and speedloaders/breeches ONLY for those rounds. If you don't want to play or follow the rules then you can sit out. it's as simple as that, but i really thing this would be a fun change of pace, especially for the area we'll be using (check to cover on google maps street view. It's about 150x450ft).

The criteria for the single shot rounds will be as follows;

-Pullback or lever action springer
-Must have a Coupler of some sort, but the barrel must be removable from the coupler
-Speedloader or breech. Speedloader can only have a maximum of two barrels attached. Breeches other than PVC/CPVC should be covered in 1/2 PVC for safety and durability.
-No integration on the primary blaster. If it's a permanent integration it can't be used.
-If you're too weak to use a springer, I'll allow the use of a bow powered blaster with a speed loader.
-If you want to use an airgun, it needs to have a coupler with a max of 8" speedloader/breech. I'll actually be bringing along a length of cpvc about 8" to match up for that.
-If you can convert your pump action into a pullback easily, I have no problem with that.

If you're fast and agile enough, you probably wont need anything more than a decent pistol that hits 70s. Anything past 100s is most likely overkill but welcome. As long as you follow these guidelines there shouldn't be a problem.

Lunch:
Midday. I would suggest clicking the google map and finding food, cause I don't know how to get out of that area of the town, much less give directions out. Generally heading back to rt 27, then getting onto somerset street (take the left road at the bank, you'll see a graveyard on your right. you should pass the hospital) all the way into New Brunswick will take you to Easton ave. Take the Left on the intersection then the right at the next light. The Grease Trucks will be on your left.

Trading:
I'm allowing open trade, however this is not an open invitation to bring all of your shit and try to pawn it off. If you're trading when your name is called for rounds and you don't notice, you will be left out for that round.

Dart restrictions:
Slugs. Don't bring shit ones. If you're concerned about their quality talk to me. If you see domes or slugs falling apart on the field just throw them out.

What to bring:
-At least two primaries (one should be a pullback or lever action)
-Stefans (I'd say over 200 since we like to get some objective games in)
-Water
-Lunch or money for lunch
-Stuff to trade (within reason)
-A friend
-A good attitude

We probably could do that, we'd probably want to have the staging area closer to the middle, like the path between the two areas if we're gonna use the field.

I'm considering doing a 2-barrel, pullback Speed loader round or two plus objectives based on that. No pump action, no air guns. Anything that can hit 90+ with a speed loader would probably be best.

Would anyone be apposed to this?

a speedloader isn't hard to make

You're going to miss the warm up for APOC, and then get destroyed at APOC cause you didn't come to my war :(

Also, because July is looking like a slow month, I'd like to host a war on the 28th as well.

I might be able to make a war on the 28th not the 14th. And I'm open to the game type considering that's all I use on my 3b :D.

This sounds like classic nerf mode (something Koree keeps telling me about). I am totally down for this. Would breeches be allowed as well?

Yeah, breeches would be okay too, just no bullshit like having a bunch of breeches on a turret.

Wow, that just MADE this war for me. I'll definitely be there if I'm back from a cousin's wedding by then, not 100% sure on the timing. Even if my flight lands on that Friday night, it's on, wouldn't miss the nostalgia for anything. I might even try to get my Maximizer fixed for this.

Won't be able to attend a war on the 28th, though.

I can try to talk the wife into the war on the 28th... but with it so close to APOC it might be hard pressed... And fear not, I got John training me so I'll be ready for APOC.

As of right now I am able to hit the war on the 28th, as well as the original on the 14th. The more wars the better! As for Classic Nerf I'm down for that, but since breeches are allowed, would a singled LS be fine?

Nope. I'm talking couplered here.

The criteria for the single shot rounds will be as follows;

-Pullback or lever action springer
-Must have a Coupler of some sort, but the barrel must be removable from the coupler
-Speedloader or breech. Speedloader can only have a maximum of two barrels attached. Breeches other than PVC/CPVC should be covered in 1/2 PVC for safety and durability.
-No integration on the primary blaster. If it's a permanent integration it can't be used.
-If you're too weak to use a springer, I'll allow the use of a bow powered blaster with a speed loader.
-If you want to use an airgun, it needs to have a coupler with a max of 8" speedloader/breech. I'll actually be bringing along a length of cpvc about 8" to match up for that.
-If you can convert your pump action into a pullback easily, I have no problem with that.

I don't think some of us,as newer nerfers, appreciate the way the vets used to play. It most likely wasn't as fast paced as today's nerf with hoppers and pump action everywhere, so I'd personally like to see what it was like and try it myself. I'll probably suck bad at it. But if DX is as excited as he seems to be, I think it'd be a good change of pace.

Check the first post. rules have been added regarding "Blast from the past" rounds. Most likely it'll only be an hour of play after lunch. However if it goes over well we can continue going. I'd also like to combine the ruleset with objective based games, and see how well that works.
