Rainday Games!
We live on yoda’s exiled planet of Dagobah System.
It’s mucky, it’s wet and it’s nasty but you know what? That didn’t matter on January 16th, 2011. We had around 25 players come out in the pouring rain. It was an absolute ball too, the battles were intense and bitterly fought on a battlefield soaked in [...]

Desert Warriors
In this blog segment, we explore some of the gear preferences and unique playing style of our good friends at High Desert Scenario. Only a matter of 2.5 hours away, their environment is polar opposite compared to the drippy, wet Willamette Valley. Large rocks and small trees dot an arid landscape known for its temperature [...]

Keepin it frosty: Play smart, play comfortable
