in 2015 we held our first open to the public event (and our 3rd overall). We rented out the Hueston Woods Lodge in Oxford Ohio for 3 days of gaming goodness. It was an amazing event and most of our guests LOVED the cozy ambiance of the Lodge, sadly, it was just not large enough to hold our event as we grow. But 2015 will certainly be an event we remember fondly and a badge of honor for not being carried off on the wings of those damn Vultures!

I made a Star Wars Dread game using Light Side and Dark Side bricks. It went ‘okay’ but was still a fun experience.

We wanted to make sure everyone in the room and from space could see and recognize the RPG Academy Faculty.
