Yo, it’s Bo. To tell you how Battle Bash came to be we gotta go all the way back to 1973. It was a cool misty day way out in the sticks where a groovy guy chopping wood pondered, “I wonder what’ll happen in 1996.” Well believe it or not, that fateful year came to be, and out the womb came a boy (you guessed it, that’s me).

I was a spry young lad, with an imagination for all things pretty rad. Luckily, friends and family were kind enough to entertain the dreamt-up games inside my little brain. Then one wondrous day I though to myself, “I gotta get these games outta my head and onto a shelf.”

Note cards, markers, poster boards galore, and out came a boardgame that was barely better than a bore. But ideas kept poppin’ up into that noggin of mine, I knew I’d have a good one soon enough down the line.

Freshman year of college as I sat in my dorm, my mind winds shifted, it was a heavy brainstorm! By the time the dust settled, and the day was through, Battle Bash was a reality, though my English paper was past due.

A couple months later, after a long ski day, I broke out Battle Bash and got my friends to play. Legend of the game continued to grow, as revamped prototypes were revealed to those in the know. But soon came the phase of the dormant days, where Battle Bash sat by patiently in a forgotten haze.

But there’s more to this story as a matter of fact, Battle Bash was now ready for its second act. The game was brought forth from the depths of despair, and word of its return spread quickly through the air. Friends and family gathered and began battling again, as they thirsted for nothing less than a Battle Bash win.

Now it’s time for this game to live up to its name and burn its light as bright as the eternal flame. Just between you and me, what you’ll soon see, is the final form of Battle Bash in 2023. So hold fast and hold true as that day comes due, someday soon, oh so soon, the one playing Battle Bash will be you!  🙂
