Today I received numerous emails about a Fallout-based LARP (that’s live-action roleplay) that took place last month at a deserted Soviet military base near Leningrad, Russia. According to The Vault, the LARP, titled Fallout 2009: Nothing Personal, was set in the year 2257 (between Fallout 2 and Fallout 3).
Around 300 fans participated in the event. If you haven’t already, be sure to check out all the photos from the LARP here.
Thanks to Ausir and everyone else that emailed me about the event.
Wow, awesome. This makes me really wish there was a Fallout movie.
That’s pretty cool! Makes me wish we had more deserted military bases around the office.
As a recovering World of Darkness LARPer, this is actually pretty cool. I’m taking a wild guess that alot of the Fallout 3 Larpers are Steampunks.
Did anybody see Darkon?… Whoa, these people are the biggest losers ever. I love Fallout, but come on.
To bad they didn’t have a desert. Would have seated nicely in a place like the Badlands in the Dakotas. It already is a wasteland! lol.
Hopefully we’ll hear something new about Mothership Zeta, suppose to come this month from what I’ve heard. Hoping they patch the bugs from Point Lookout too.
Eastern Europe, eh? Location, location, location.
They should do Half-Life next.
By the way, Leningrad is the old name of St.Petersburg!
That… is awesome.
I totally agree with Lothar.. this is ridicilous
They’re not harming anyone, and they’re doing something they enjoy. Let them be.
The name of the city has been St Petersburg again for quite a while now you know…
Yeah, it hasn’t been Leningrad in awhile. They haven’t kept the name Stalingrad for Volgograd either.
aww awesome
If they ever did one for Oblivion, I’d be there! 
They call it “Leningrad” in the original Livejournal report in Russian, though. And it’s probably still Leningrad in the Fallout universe.
