The weather during the water fight was overcast but still warm (nowhere near 27C but still nice for a water fight); shortly after we finished the sun broke through the cloud cover and increased the temperature significantly (though if that had happened during the water fight we would have likely gotten sunburnt, so it was probably better the way the weather turned out).

My team consisted of my two younger siblings and two younger players. The war was fought around my yard, with the backyard being a strategic Garrison equipped with two guard towers. We also played on the street but most of the fighting was around the house. There are two killer corners that people camp out around. Continue reading Second Armed Skirmish
