This ticket is for Training Grounds - Character Development on May 18th at Cross H Farm.

This special edition of Training Grounds shifts the focus from combat to the role-play element of our events. Role-play is a large part of events like Weekend Warrior and War of the Barons and we’re excited to help players dive more deeply into how to build their character and how to drive story with other players. We will learn from professional acting coaches, experienced role-players, and costume designers as they help us build our characters and get the most out of our experiences to better help us build more beautiful stories together

Camping will be available on-site for both Friday and Saturday nights for the cost of $20 per person/per night. Porta Johns will be available but no showers or electricity.

For this one-day event, weapon rentals are free. Basic costume rentals will be $25 for the day.

Our hope is that many folks who are considering Weekend Warrior or War of the Barons but are not ready to take the plunge will join us for a little taste of the event. We also expect there will be quite a few veteran players there to set an example for the new recruits!

All normal Weekend Warrior & War of the Barons rules and policies apply.
TRAINING GROUNDS TICKETS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
