It was all sheet-based. I never saw anyone with a real martial-arts background LARP. I DID see lots and lots of roly-poly sweatbutts who would try to one-up each other by talking about their extensive fight training.

Oh! Oh! There was also something called 'Brazilian Rules', which meant actually using out-of-character physical fighting to settle an issue. Allegedly, a LARP down in Brazil had players beat a guy to death over something in-character. Became the stuff of legend. No idea if it's true.
