Land without a King
Valour. Virtue. Victory.
Land Without A King is EYELarp’s tale of the time of waning magic and the rise of Christianity, between the reigns of Uther and Arthur.
The land is a dangerous place. It is a time of anarchy, when many choose to persecute others, but some brave souls fight for justice and the virtues of a greater good.
Drawing on the look and feel of the first 30 minutes of John Boorman’s classic Excalibur, and the writings of Sir Thomas Malory, Land Without A King centres upon Knightly Retinues – for without his Comitatus, the Knight is nothing. Not every player is a knight, or a liegeman; but being part of a retinue – a valiant, victorious and virtuous retinue – is a the surest path to status.
And status is everything.

Land Without a King follows EYELarp’s freeform ‘react to everything, but don’t expect a reaction’ approach, with some additions

Legio SPQR
FilmSim events is proud to present a new EyeLARP experience; ‘Legio SPQR’
It is 51BC and a time of great unrest within the Republic. The consul, Gaius Julius Caesar, stands triumphant in Gaul, having defeated the great arch enemy of Rome at the battle of Alesia. However, rumours fill the forum of a growing feud between the great warlord and his co-consul and former mentor, the legendary Pompey Magnus.
Our story follows the trials of elevations of the many Ludus masters and their gladiators in the outlying provinces. Due to being so far from Rome, the opportunity for these outlying schools to elevate to a Primus is very rare. Instead, the skill and profit comes from producing fighters worthy of the prestigious ‘Primus Ludus Magnus’. Here, the Ludus masters can gain great wealth and political notoriety without ever visiting Rome itself.
Our amazing experience focuses on one of these outlying provinces and the many tournaments and political struggles the Ludus masters must endure to warrant such notice. Be of renown and heritage or a newly founded Ludus, when the season begins and the talent scouts of the Ludus Magnus arrive, all must show their best.

Riots and Revolutions LRP
It is 1793. The Revolution is in full swing and the National Council is executing its “Reign of Terror” on any that threaten the revolution. After the Declaration of War against Austria in 1792, the first coalition started to form and started to press into France with the aim of destroying the revolution. Unfortunately the French were able to muster new armies swiftly and employ new tactics which managed to hold the Allies and eventually press them back.
As things got better for the French forces, they got bolder they executed King Louis XVI and declared war on the Netherlands on the 1st of February 1793. The new French tactics are assisting the Revolutionary forces seem to be used sparingly and only when defeat for the French forces seem inevitable. The casualties from the engagements seem horrific with high civilian casualties if they happen to be in the vicinity.
Meanwhile in a sleepy estate in Sussex near the mouth of the river Cuckmere, a ball is being prepared for. And little do the occupants know what awaits them. The date is the 1st of March 1793.
Welcome to Riots and Revolutions. A LRP set in an alternate timeline of the late 18th Century Britain

TankLARP
A continent ravaged by war, once controlled by an ancient technologically advanced race that kept humans as a labour class, now devolved into archaic war due to their dissappearance. Leaving behind relics of such technological wonder that nations fought long, bloody wars over them.
After a near apocalyptic encounter with a foreign invader, war has changed. No longer is outright death of the enemy the goal. Conquest is now a cleaner objective but many people will still die on the way. Who will control the technology of the ancients before the next foreign threat makes its presence known?
TankLARP is the UK's first live action roleplaying game with the capacity to use real live military vehicles.
Jump into a powerful war machine as a Tanker, learn to drive and shoot a tank and prepare to fight one on one with an enemy tank Ace to fight for superiority on the battlefield.
Sign up as a soldier, polish your blades and load your rifle and get ready to rapidly deploy from the back of an APC or Transport vehicle to skirmish zones and battlefields.

Waking Nightmare LRP
Waking Nightmare is a game about hope, fear and monster-hunting in a post-revolutionary nation. Sorcery has awoken from its slumber and shadowy horrors stalk the world. You play as the outgunned initiates pitting wits, flintlock and sorcery against the horrors in the darkness.
Waking Nightmare begins as a republic still finding its feet faces an unearthly threat it can barely comprehend, let alone fight. Shadows take form, legends walk, and it appears that the very sea gives up its dead to haunt the living. You will step into the bloodied shoes of poor, outgunned agents trying to hold back the encroaching darkness.
The Republic is currently governed by a council of revolutionary groups, their members drawn by a combination of polls, dead reckoning of numbers, and force of politics. A constitution is due, but the First Constitutional Convention was dissolved after a round of attacks by lurching, malevolent shadows. Next year marks when the second round of democratic elections were supposed to happen. It is rumoured that they will be postponed, in the case that anyone survives long enough to postpone them.The Cabal that had kept magic and demons in the realm of myth for centuries is reeling from the initial invasion, and has been recruiting frantically. They’ll conscript anyone with enough determination to fight and the moral guts to resist the Nightmares’ rule of terror, at least for a time. You know the odds aren’t good for you. You don’t know why the country’s slipping beyond reason. But if not you, then who else?
