Nerf Assassins??

I read something in the paper a few days ago about police worrying about Nerf. The problem isn't the guns themselves (I think it was the police Chief that said "If I was that age I'm sure this would be great fun") but the fact that they're running around neighbourhoods with them. The guns don't look real... to most people. They're worried some old lady is gonna freak out and call the cops because some children are shooting each other.

I've heard of Assassin. If I'm not mistaken, it's actually a pretty complicated game that's not very similar to the wars that most of us are familiar with. In assassin, each player is on his own. No teams. Everyone gets assigned 3 "targets" who they have to "kill" and report to some moderator. At the same time, you are on 3 other peoples' target lists. It's kinda confusing. There is no time constraint and games would last pretty long. It was really big at this one university but I forget where... I hope someone else has heard of this or ya'll are going to think I'm bogus.
That's probably totally unrelated to the Nerf Assassins you speak of...

Ah, assassin. I recall now. I played a form of assassin in my first year of university, except you only had one mark. When you eliminated your mark, you took his/her mark, until there was only one person left. In order to eliminate someone, you had to kill them somehow. BUT, it had to be an assassination. You couldn't be 'seen'. You could set up a 'bomb' in the person's bag of some sort (imagine those envelope butterflies), or you could put on something to cover your face and slit their throat with a toy knife. But in that case, your face had to be covered. It was amazingly intense fun, and I can imagine a massive game with 3 marks and nerf weapons would keep every person in school paranoid.

First of all it is Forsaken_angel.

Secondly I would love to know what channel time etc.

Thirdly there is the original version of Nerf assassin. This was the game that sparked the fire that was the clan wars. The game goes as follows.

Only one person is hunting one person. There is a profile on each player. Each Player gets a target. They may not hunt anyone else except that target.

Say there are 5 players. The profiles are mixed up in a certain manner so that player 1 is hunting player 2 and player 2 is hunting player 3, player 3 is hunting player 4, player 4 is hunting player 5, and player 5 is hunting player 1. A circle of hunters. If player 2 kills player 3 then player 2 gets player 3's target and player 2 is now hunting player 4. Player 3 is out of the game permanently.

The Circle of assassins keeps getting tighter with every kill untill there are only two players left. In this case the first player to shoot the other one wins the game,Cash,bragging rights,awards etc. If a player finds his assassin hunting him and shoots his hunter than his hunter is in a no offence mode for 48 hours upon the dart hitting him.

I really hope these assassin games grow into something big!


EDIT: It is cool to see a good portion of the rules I wrote on your site.

Kudos on not letting people shoot people from cars. I had to deal with a whole team of douchebags last game. This saves alot of time,gas and patience when people hide in their cars.

If you wanted more people to take this game seriously you should make the buy in higher. It looks like the buy in was only $1 per person. In Nerf assassin it was 15 each and in the clan wars it was $30. My top hunters walked away from that game with around $120 a peice.

Forsaken_Angel, those are the basic rules we played with too, except without nerf guns. You had to be creative. You couldn't be seen, as I said. It was intense.

Edit: It's all coming back to me now. One guy put food-colored salt on another guy's burger. We sat at the table together but no one saw him do it. His mark bit into it and noticed it instantly. He opened the burger, saw the green salt, knew he was poisoned, and hung his head in shame. He left his envelope that had all his mark's information on the table for his killer to pick up later when no one saw.

Sweet. This will be one step further to making Nerf a more commericialised sport. I will watch the Interview, as others will too.

Nerf Assassins is what we play on campus, it is crazy fun!
Here are the rules that we are currently using, but after thinking about cars it might be changed.


The Rules of Engagement for Nerf Assassins
v 1.0

1. You don’t talk about Assassins – for all intents and purposes, the game is not being played.  More specifically you can’t openly admit to being dead or alive, to having killed someone or thwarting a kill.  Anyone admitting to a kill or being a participant to a thwarting is subject to punishment or death. 

2. As an assassin, you will be assigned a contract from “The Executor.”  Contracts contain the name of another assassin.  Kill this person.

3. The Executor will preside over the game.  He must be contacted, via e-mail, about kills, tallies and thwarting.  If you kill someone, mark a tally or thwart someone, he must be notified about it for it to count in the scoring and for the game to run smoothly.

4. You can’t kill someone without your contract – your contract is proof you have the right to kill that person.  Keep your contracts on your body at all times.

5. An assassin must use a nerf gun to kill a victim.  He then gains all the victim’s contracts.  He will then hunt the active contract of his set.  If you are killed and you have multiple contracts, tell your assassin who the active contract is.

6. A Nerf Gun is any device that projects foam safely.  Including Official Nerf Guns, off brand Nerf Guns, Modded Nerf Guns, Blowguns, and Homemade guns.  Gun must shoot foam and must be tested by the Executor to determine gun safety approval.  Throwing foam or using nerf “swords” do not count.

7. They only way for a kill to count is for the foam to hit the head (neck up) of the target.  Head coverings are considered part of the head. 

8. A hit is when the foam projectile, bounces back, or changes direction after hitting the head, if the projectile keeps going in the same direction it is a miss.  If the assassin misses or hits any other body part it does not count.  Ideally all hits will be to the back of the head.

9. When hit in the head you put your hands up (gun in hand allowed) and yell HIT. You are now dead.

10. An Assassination must happen outside. Outside is anywhere that is NOT inside the dorm hall where you live, inside other dorm halls after quite hours, inside classrooms during class, inside Gwin, inside the library and inside churches or other places that CFE events are happening.

11. Non-players and dead people DO NOT protect you for Assassination.  You can be killed in public.

12. An Assassination attempt is when an assassin tries to kill his target by shooting at him.  If the first shot misses then another assassin can try to thwart, if the first shot hits then it is a silent kill.  During an attempt another assassin who has the first assassin that is attempting can attempt as well.

13. Active players who don’t have either member in an assassination attempt can however thwart an assassination by hitting the assassin with foam to the head before the target is assassinated.  This ends the assassins attempt and the assassin who thwarted yells out Thwart which ends the shooting.  The person who thwarted then gains all non active contracts of the failed assassin and that assassin can’t attempt their target until after 10AM the next day.

14. The Target may shoot back at the assassin to distract him to get away but any hits do not count as a thwart or a kill.

15. When it is the last two assassins in the game who every hits first wins unless they both die at the same time and then the assassin with the most contracts wins.

16. After a kill, an assassin marks “the sheet” with a unique and distinctive writing device.  This is for honor and is the only way for anyone to see how the game is progressing.  Other than the act of marking, the assassin may not do anything else to break rule #1 and cannot point our which tallies is his, but may be seen making the tally.  One tally per kill.  You must make your mark before you are killed.

17. There are no accomplices; there is no aiding and abetting.  (rule #1)

18. If the game ends by time constraint, the following point system will determine who wins:
Tally mark = 2 points
Contract = 3 points
Thwarting = 3 points
Kill = 3 points
Survival = 15 points
You will only get these points if reported via e-mail to the Executor.

19. No lying.  No hurting people.  The Executor can find out and can kill you.

20. If there is a question about the current game, consult “The Executor” in PRIVATE. 

Job description for “The Executor:”
1.  Put every assassin in a single ring/chain making sure that no roommates or suitemates have each other and to make a master list of this ring/chain. 
2.  Set a time limit of the game.
3.  Make Contracts.  A contract is a tangible object with the name of the target on it. 
4. Check Guns to make sure they are safe.
5.  Keep track of the game via e-mail and the master list. 
6.  Post the rules and the tally sheet out in a public place on the floor. 
7.  Hand the contracts out in a secretive manner.  If possible hand them out in a single meeting with all assassins.  All assassins should stay in the room until everyone is armed.  Once contracts are assigned, all will exunte en masse and the game starts.
8.  Make sure the game is progressing by the rules and punishing violators by assigning negative points or killing violators and then passing on the active contract of the violator to the person contracted to kill him.

I've played that before, but we couldn't get enough people to join. Right now I'm working on joining a game on my campus called "mafia", and it's pretty much a no-holds-barred nerf clan war. I'm still fuzzy on the details, but I don't think points are kept track of, it's pretty much a matter of if you see someone from another mob, you have a gunfight, and other than that nobody talks about it. It's fun to see people spot someone else's nerf gun in a public place and start shooting. Campus police knows about it, so nobody gets in much trouble.

Another thing we do (which has nothing to do with nerf, but goes along the lines of police being scared and people calling the cops) is fugitive. Every wed. night we all meet at one place in the city and are given a destination about a mile away. Then we split up into two teams; fugitives and cops. The fugitives are given a two minutes foot start, then the cops take off in cars. I'm going to try to get them to use nerf guns this year if I can.

You know what I find funny? Some kids run around with harmless foam guns and people get all mad and the media reports nerf guns as being "unsafe". Me and alot of my friends run around with airsoft guns that DO look like real guns and noone says anything.

You would think that the cops could take action against the old coots who worry about this kinda stuff instead of us... maybe an informational campaign?

*WARNING* Kids will soon be running about with things that look nothing like firearms. Don't be alarmed.

Also, what's up with things being named Cretin in Minneapolis? I mean, I can understand if it's someone's last name, but there's a STREET with that name. Why?!

Obviously the most effective method would be a nuclear explosion propelling the dart. All you need is some uranium or plutonium, which is easily accessible.

Umm that message isn't a law that is required to be followed. It is mearly a warning so that people dont modify the gun and somehow hurt themselfs and sue hasbro because they are fags.

It is there so Hasbro can legally claim that they are not resposible when someone injures themselves with a modified gun shooting nails or something like that.

Well, I am the founder of the CDH Nerf Assassins. As for the interview, we are all very excited for it. We will make sure that we are not torn about by the media's way of twisting words. The others who aided me in the creation of the game and me will be interview. Wish us luck! Also, speaking of police, we had a case about 3 weeks ago when about eight or so assassins were waiting outside a hockey game, and the police, not taking too kindly to the game, put an assassin in a ten minute "Timeout" in the hockey arena's office and put his Titan on top of a vending machine too... Bogus!
