Breaking News from the Interior Ministry:

STALKER event series Ruleset Update:

-Suit and Armor Systems-

We have reviewed all submitted feedback from our associate groups, admins, npcs and IGAs along with some limited player feedback.

We will be removing the "suit system" from the ruleset. It was complicated, preauth failed and ended up day of, and is difficult to discern for other players and enforce.

We are moving back to Galactic Civil War based "what you see is what you get"

If a player wears an integrated ballistic vest or stand alone ballistic vest they have a free self revive at One Minute. No med kit needed. Unlimited use.

If a player wears a approved helmet, BB hits to the helmet are ignored.

(BB hits to the head for non helmeted players is instant death. No armor or medkit revive)

(Ballistic visors extend the coverage to the face)

(Blank Fire is assumed to bypass your helmets armor since its impossible to apply this to direct blank fire)

Exo suits have a self revive at the 45 secons mark, making them one of the biggest threats in the zone.

Science Suit perk still stands but is attained by bloused boots and long full gloves + resperator ON and airtank/airpack/PAPR system.

These may now be combined to mimic more advanced suits like the ACE or SKAT systems.

There is NO tanking of hits. You get hit you go down and then use your armor perk to self heal at the alloted time.

You may always just apply a med kit to bypass timers.

-From the Game Costumes-
Anyone with a good 1:1 fit from the game gets the perk to bypass Zombification for leaving AO to use the bathrooms. You still get zombified by Psi Waves or being out during an emission.

-Banking-
Each faction will maintain its own digital bank.

-Faction Rep-
As is. Meaning you need to do stuff and interact with faction npcs and build legit organic rep.

We are working on an overhaul for faction rep.

-Stalker Ranking and Carry Over-
Rank will be based on events attendance. TBA on those requirements.

-Rookie

-Veteran (starts with full med kit)

-Master (starts with full med kit & ammo weight choice)

-Legend (can choose a Upgrade to start with IE full auto, personal NVG, Personal Scanner, Personal Arti Container etc.)

These are chashed in at the bar AFTER game start.

ATTENTION STALKERS!

March event is now live. Our very first national offsite production.

Everything you loved about our immersive 40+ hr non stop STALKER hybrid events at amazing new offsite locations representing different areas of the zone.

ASW and CML are excited to present the next event in March down in Indiana at the former state asylum and medical facilities.

Return to Limansk with your team to explore the long forgotten Sanitorium. STALKERs raided this area in 2012 but many disappeared never to be heard from again. What secrets await you in the dark halls and shadowy streets of this desolate city?

ATTENTION STALKERS!
For all of our immersive blank fire & ai***ft STALKER role-playing events, monster npc staff are by far your biggest threat after dark. These events run 40hrs+ nonstop.

These absolutely awesome pooking shots taoen through nvgs are a great example of why you keep fires lit at the STALKER series and solid watch rotation.

Only one or two folks got dragged out of their bivies or tents this time.

(Yes, that is a thing at this particular event series. If you are not near a fire, you are fair game for monsters)

Mostly because they didn't listen during the brief, read the rules, or listen during the game, lol.

DONT SET YOUR TENT UP IN THE DARK. Survivals a communal effort in stalker.

Our next event is in Indiana at the state sanatarium, asylum, and medical facility. 800 acres perched on a massive ridgeline with over 130 acres of abandoned hospital facilities, tunnels, and buildings.

Tickets are now live:

We will post a big shout out and thank you to all the participants and everyone who helped in a few days after we all get a day or two of normal sleep without the endless whisper of Psi rads.

Remember CMLs highly focused and in depth STALKER X LAB event is right around the corner in november. Book tickets now!

We will also be posting our first joint ASW/CML off site, large scale national event STALKER hybrid production scheduled for March in the next few days.

Urgent Reminder for the STALKER Events:

If you have any last minute questions get on discord or message the fields email:

https://discord.gg/qxUSx6mGzV

(If you are doing the stalker events you should really be on the ASW discord at minimum)

The safety brief is LONG and mandatory. Its only offered twice. The event is an ai***ft and blank fire LARP, with complicated core mechanics. It is not a themed big game.

Additionally it is a Hybrid Event, meaning blank fire. That means EVERY SINGLE PERSON gets hand searched, and their gear searched EVERYTIME the enter or exit the field.

There are only TWO safety briefs.

The main brief Friday at 7:00PM

One backup checkin/brief for emergency late arrivals Saturday at 8:00AM

You must attend friday. If you CANT then you will attend saturdays.

Expect atleast 1-2 hrs of check-in, brief, searches and safety check, and chrono.

---Theming, Costuming and gear/guns----
The website and discord cover this in detail. Its VERY SPECIFIC FOR THIS EVENT. IT IS NOT OPTIONAL OR FLEXIBLE.

There are factions for easy access kit but they still have requirements. Not optional.

If you arrive in violation of the reqs, you dont play. You can transfer your tix. No refunds.

I know some of you signed up after talking to staff to give it a try. Keep in mind the same standards apply to casual first timers or repeat participants.

--In Character vs Out of Character--
Being in universe isnt an optional thing.
Quiet personal OOC stuff is fine but doing that around the rest of the customers who are paying for the immersive STALKER exp will get you an admin warning, then an actual sitdown with game control, then removal.

You can generally just larp it up as yourself in the zone. But you must be in the zone in the stalker universe.

You do need some basic understanding of the STALKER game series for this event.

Reminder: this isnt fallout. Keep that to yourself and fallout kits are NOT permitted.
