The peace keeping forces are now filled to capacity!
It is still possible to sign up as a civilian LARP participant or part of the guerilla groups.
We have booked a bus for LARP participants that will go from Västerås to the game area via Uppsala, Stockholm and other cities along the way. For more information and questions, please register on our forum:
For more information about LARP participation (Swedish only!), have look here:
There are rumours in the refugee camp that the transnistrian turbofolk band “Yad Kalashnikov” is touring the countryside, and that they are coming to the refugee camp at Kolosovo village. Yad Kalashnikov are well known for their political support for Respublika (and some even say they are somehow involved in the militant branch of Respublika, the Zvezda).
Whether you like Yad or not, or whether you support Respublika, Obnovleniye or are neutral, eveyone knows Yad Kalashnikov and can hum a tune or two.
Off-info: Yad Kalashnikov will perform in, or near, the refugee camp. Find their songs at http://www.yadkalashnikovband.se
We’ve opened up forums for the factions at POP, and assigned participants to their respective groups. We are, however, missing quite a few people with tickets on the forums. If you’re one of them, we urge you to register at the forums. Then send either Sebastian Utbult or Johannes Axner a PM so we can assign you to the correct subforum.
We have now released information for LARP participants at the Politics of Pressure event:
At last, tickets are released! Sorry for the delay.
We’ve capped tickets at the moment, and will be releasing more tickets once we see the ratios between peacekeepers and guerillas reach our goal.
Tickets can be found here:
As you’ve no doubt noticed, we haven’t released the POP tickets yet. This is due to a few reasons, some outside our control. Mainly, we have now sorted out a lot of details about the scenario and factions.
The most important details for you participants:
* Different style of the NATO base. We’ll still have a base, but it’ll be much rougher and more front line than what was earlier discussed. There won’t be a mess hall or field kitchen, etc. The base will be set up (by players) in-game at the start of POP. Expect fewer conveniences for the NATO side, and more hardcore feeling.
* Specifying the conflict a bit. Focus is now more on Obnovleniye meddling in Transnistrian affairs, with the peacekeepers taking a more active stand against incursions, rather than focusing on keeping Respublika and Obnovleniye from killing each other.
* Civilians will still play a big role at POP, however perhaps not in large quantities. We aim to keep the civilian side of things meaningful, and not as a scripted NPC side.
* More work outsourced to interested participants.
* Readjusted the budget and overall ticket prices are now cheaper.
More detailed information of the game will be released in the days to come, and tickets are going live very shortly. NATO tickets will be released incrementally, to keep the ratio between insurgents and peacekeepers in line. We hope you’re still on for the ride!
