So, as none of you will know, today is my birthday. And my uncle knew that I love Nerf, so he somehow managed to find a very very good condition Sharpshooter I for me as my present. It looks AMAZING for being 20 years old. I'm not quite sure of the modding potential, or if I have the cajones to even deface this beauty, but it's a pretty cool gift nonetheless.

This isn't an NIC war, but is nonetheless a Nerf war. It's also going to have round one of the club's HvZ, as well as a foam sword Medieval war.
There's also an awesome 5v5 tourney but you have to register teams in advance. I think the NIC should build a team for the war.
I'm new to the community, but I'm not new to Nerf wars! And so, with that, I have some exciting news! Well, it's exciting to me anyway.
I'M HOSTING A NERF WAR!
Further details are being worked out, as we have 3 locations we are still deciding on. But I can say it will be in either February or March 2011, and will be in the Louisville, KY area. I live across the bridge in Indiana, but that's not a factor that matters.
So yeah! More details will be posted as they become available, but I'm really looking forward to hosting my first NIC war!
Rules:
- Dangerous blasters are banned. No exceptions. (These include singled Titans, homemade airguns at the host's discretion, guns with sharp points, etc.)
- Point-blanking is discouraged. I highly encourage barrel tapping. I won't throw you out unless it becomes a problem. As always, fire a dart after a successful tap.
- Dress for any weather. The Ohio Valley region has fluctuating temperatures and climates on a daily basis. I suggest dressing in layers, so you can stay dry and/or comfortable.
- Bring your own blasters and darts. I have plenty of both myself, but I recommend you don't rely on them being available. Bring your own guns if you want to enjoy your experience.
- Don't complain. None of us like babies. If you got shot and you feel it was unfair, just keep it to yourself. We all want to have a good time. Please keep complaints to serious issues.
- What can't I bring? You cannot bring solid black guns, airsoft guns, or paintball guns. I don't want to see you dressed in military-esque clothing. Wherever we are, we don't need to get a life ban. Tactic-cool Vest by Nerf is allowed on the condition that you wear a bright orange armband to symbolize harmlessness.
- What are the gametypes? Good question. The gametypes I am used to are as follows: (forgive the weird naming scheme, its what I'm used to)
-Deathmatch (Every man for himself) -Team Deathmatch (Two large teams) -Survival (Deathmatch with respawn and set amount of 'lives') -Invasion (Zombie gametype. 1/4 of total group start as zombies with melee weapons) -Squadrons (Small groups of 4-5 each, depending on total group size) -Capture the Flag (Self-explanatory, a few unique rules to be clarified on gameday) -Storm the Castle (Team match, except one team defends a 'castle' with 3 'treasures'. very strategic.) -Lockdown (Pistols round, CQB) -Clashing Steel (Melee round, CQB) -Sharpshooters (Long ranged weapons FTW)
I'm open to any and all suggestions. PM me or post a comment if you have any!
