We’re doing a lot of final sorting out of player links and crew roles for High Frontier: The Weyland Factor LARP at the moment. If you would like to play or crew and were on the fence about it, now is a great time to book. Only two player spaces left.

With our recent bookings, The Weyland Factor is almost at player capacity but we’re still looking for crew. Want to come along and give out some free hugs?

@Section31 it’s made them quite large and definitely “right handed”. The CAD file is parametric so I may do some variants with a top handle or no keypad/buttons but I’d still need to have somewhere for a USB socket. The tablet is too buried in the case to realistically use the original charging socket.

Recently I made some 3D printed cases that turn old Android tablets into sci-fi looking #LARP props. They’re not perfect: I don’t like the keyboard and want re-do that part, but they did achieve most of what I wanted.

I even blogged about it for once.

No worries, this is most definitely aimed at event organisers.

@t0bias surely an event you run has _some_ structure, themes, mechanics and environment you plan in advance.

This isn’t about telegraphing every beat that _may_ happen but the things you plan to happen or are common custom.

My example about noise was related to there being no description of what actually happens at the LARP, just a rulebook,… Read more

This is an interesting one in that it doesn’t say very much but also says everything. I am not young but I am very prone to “no I’m not doing this” and quitting things early.

A good example was I went to a perfectly reasonable LARP run by decent people where “the room where it happened” was crowded and had terrible acoustics. Later on a…

We think it went well but haven’t issued our post-event feedback form yet. We’ve definitely had positive messages from some people who are keen to play the next event and we ran to time, which is generally a good sign, but at the time it was so hectic I still don’t really know what happened from the players’ point of view in detail.

This weekend UKLTA had its first event of 2025: Dropzone which is an anthology of various three hour linear/combat style LARPs. The photos are starting to trickle in but this one of a crewmember in the UNIT (Doctor Who) game costumed as a Weeping Angel is going to be very hard to beat.

She had an uncanny ability to stand completely still for…

Hi there folks, I’m one of the GMs of a small ongoing Cyberpunk LARP that runs infrequently in the UK. We’ve sprung out of a ‘combat LARP’ group (UKLTA, which I’m a committee member of) that uses Laser-Tag to emulate firearms and run as part of their series of events. We’re only about 20 players and 10 crew but will be hoping to recruit a few…
