ROSE CITY RAID 5 - SOLD OUT!
June 24-25
SHERWOOD, OREGON
Sorry, but the tickets have sold out, and the waitlist is currently full.
Keep your eyes peeled on our discord or facebook in case more spots become available!
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Rose City Raid is known for its challenging mission lineup and fantastic tables featuring plenty of special terrain. This year we are mixing it up by using the Escalation ITS extra, so each round you will be playing a different point value. To balance the schedule though, we’ve decided to use the largest and smallest point values for the final two rounds.
This tournament isn’t for the faint of heart, nor those with weak constitutions. Just like last year, we will be holding the event at Madrona Hill Vineyard in Sherwood Oregon, with ample supply of beer and pizza on-hand.
Missions
We have picked a brutal lineup of missions for you this year, requiring all manner of specialists, anti-personnel weaponry, and some good old fashioned butt-kicking. Finally, while you’re making your lists, don’t forget to bring plenty of Terrain (Total) should you play on one of the more terrain-oriented tables. Since we will be playing at a brewery, the hours may be a little different than what you may be used to. Each round will last 2 hours with a half hour break in between where you can order food and drinks, or just recover from your previous round. If all goes well we should be done in time for dinner!

*The custom missions have been created by Jon and I with the sole purpose of creating challenging new missions to subject our players to. Lucky you!

PRIZES
One of my guiding principles in running the Rose City Raid last year, was to have an epic prize table. This year will be no exception! Like previous years, the biggest and best prizes will be able to be won by anyone through a raffle, so even if you don’t do well, you could very well go home with something epic.
Just like previous years, I’ve commissioned the amazing Obadiah (ITS: Nehemiah) to sculpt an Exclusive Unauthorized REM Racer miniature that every participant will receive. Furthermore, we will be making extras, which will be available to purchase when you buy your tickets. Every penny of these additional miniature sales will go right back into the event to buy even more prizes.
RCR5 Prize Categories include:
1st/2nd/3rd Place in the ITS Event. Standard for kicking the most butt!
Best Painted Army. Spend some times on those models and you may win some extra prizes!
Best Table. Bring the most beautiful and creative game table to take home the gold!
Madrona Hill Vineyard
This year we will be playing at Madrona Hill Vineyard, my family vineyard located in Sherwood, OR. It has incredible views of five mountains, with Mount Hood at the center of it all.
The event will be played entirely outside, so dress accordingly!
Hampton Inn, Sherwood
If you want to stay at a nearby hotel, the Hampton Inn is the only option in town! We will arrange travel to and from the hotel to the venue, just let us know you need a ride!
