The only possible winter games for water blasters is indoors so the only way to play is in a place that can afford to get wet, and anways it will still most likely be chilly inside so I don't think it's very practical.

You could have indoor battles in winter. Those who have had outdoor ones are a little more adventurous, you really don't want to get shot in those games. Those who do battle in the winter usually wear a water-proof jacket and something similar.
In the winter I plan homemades and mods for the next year. I also watch eBay because less people do (not that I really buy much from eBay). Another thing I do is build my base, this year we didn't really have much of a chance to because it got overgrown, but this winter we should be able to work on it.

That's how I won my XP 75, because nobody else put a bid on it.I also watch eBay because less people do (not that I really buy much from eBay).
Anyway, I plan on big snowball wars, I am already modding my WBL so it shoots snowballs, as it does get cold fast up here, today it's only 46 degrees outside!
I don't check this forum anymore.

Winter time is mainly a time for off-field stratedgies, repairs of equipment or soakers, planning events for next year, etc. I know how you feel, we all get an urge to play Mock-Warfare when we cannot due to weather conditions in the United States. Like Doom said, now is a good time to build up that base, or repair that soaker you never got to in the season. Its also a time (for some) to collect more blasters.

NO.. ITS NOT.
Grab our sweatshirts, and rain jackets, and get ready for some awesome 1HK fun!
I find winter warfare much more fun. I for one enjoy water warefare, even if I Don't get wet. I also mainly use smaller, low output guns for this, and the games can be so fun.
The "season" never ends, just being able to wear shorts.

Actually, if you use weighted micro stefans, an XP modded with a PVC barrel will fire farther than most Nerf guns.Originally posted by Spinner@Oct 20 2004, 03:58 AM
I suppose you could mod some XPs so they fire Nerf darts, but I don't think it'd be very practical and you'd probably be better off buying a new Nerf gun.

Well, compared to other guns, they take more pumps, are larger and don't (typically) have barrel selectors so you will have to manually reload them. That's what makes them impractical. I suppose they're okay if you think you're a sniper.
Plus, brass barrels are king. PVC is total XPBackfire-esque compared to it. I believe it's because on PVC they only have to keep the outer diameter constant, while on brass they keep it all constant. Also, brass has less friction. My Nerf homemade is amazing on a brass barrel.
