Yeah, it was bit much to arrage. Funny that everybody asks
about those fighters, you see they didn´t really exist in
game, but pilots did go to "flight deck" wich was off-game
area and flow simulator there. Place for game was four times
in basement and two time in forest beacuse of ground mission.
No, i didn´t have F/A-18s flying overhead
Most major problem was cosume beacuse not everybody
has navy uniform
I give premission pilots to be in overalls and
special forces people and marines were in forest green camouflage suits, wich are quite common around here. Special forces used black berets and "space commandos" wich i ripped from SAAB, lilac and green berets.
With Firekkans i decided to dump the "bird people" idea and they were like forest people and clad like medieval.
Kilrathi were quite easy to prop, but i didn´t find any 2,2m tall
players so they were as long as players were. I had one furry-fan frend who had made few masks wich were quite good. Kilrathi
clad mostly in medieval clothes and fur.
Conflicts were usually played with offical games, but handguns
were used as "SHOT! SHOT! BURST!"-style. One time we used
BB-guns.
The games old pages are still in web so here is couple of pictures from larps and one fan film.

Larp serie ended beacuse most of players began study
or had to go in army. I could make another WC-larp
in some day, but thats just dream. You all are of course welcome
here if you afford flight ticket to Finland
I heard there was somewhere in US Battle of Terra-larp where
Confed marines tried to take over Hakaga-battleship. I heard that
marine players were cornered when ships capitan decided to
activate self desctruct... They used laser-taggers in that game.
