'''Krigshjärta''' (Swedish: ''Heart of War'') is a Swedish low fantasy larp campaign, which started in 2006. Today, Krigshjärta is one of Sweden's most active larp campaigns with about 6 larps per year. The larps circle around a war between the communist totalitarian fascist country Cordovien, and the capitalist organization Gillet (Swedish: ''the Guild'') and about the nations caught in between.
The campaign aims high when it comes to equipment, esthetics and special effects, and players are usually expected to create a thought-through character with a suitable costume. In the war setting, many different stories can be played, and this is highly encouraged by the organizers. This makes Krigshjärta a larp suitable for many types of players and it becomes a meeting place for people interested in boffer, war strategy and action as well as emotional immersion, social realism and oppression themes. The cultures in the world of Krigshjärta are well-written and the cultural distinctions initiate interesting culture clashes, which makes it easy to create playable characters and scenarios.
