Will  you accept your mission, Enclave? Are you prepared to get splashed as you’ve never been splashed before? Well, if you sign up for the Raleigh Wars, or the Raleigh Water Wars as I call them, then the water is definitely coming your way.

The ‘Raleigh Wars, beginning August 1st,  are by far one of the coolest homegrown games that I have ever heard of. It’s a game all about stealth, tactical planning, and hitting as many targets as you can. To play, just register on the Raleigh Wars website and then on Sunday you will be given a name. This will be the name of your target, should you accept your mission.

Once you recieve your ‘target’s’ name, without breaking any laws, or showing up to anyone’s job, church, or any other place of importance,  you must stalk them and squirt them using an approved self-contained-water-source device like a squirt gun, water balloon, etc.

After you hit your target, you obtain that person’s target, and the game continues. The person with the most hits wins! But, if you haven’t hit anyone within the first week, a ‘hit squad’ will come after you. Doesn’t this sound fun?

On August 21, White Collar Crime will host the Assassin’s Ball, aptly titled for the stalking and water squirting that you must do, and it’s only for Water Wars participants. There will be free PBR, Jimmy Johns sandwiches, and the final battles will be taking place that night as well.

There will also be an award for best water assassination, so be sure to capture  your battles on video! For a list of prizes, check out the Raleigh Wars website.

Are you ready?
