FAQ: You've got questions, we got answers

The easiest way to start is to just show up. Bring some water and a friend and we will teach you the rules, get you into some loaner gear, and get you playing Amtgard in no time.

100% free to play! We will provide everything you need to play for your first few visits!

Fantastic! You don't need one to come visit us and we will help you develop your costume as you continue to play!

To be fair, for a game you may not have played, it would be kinda weird if you DID have equipment. Amtgard has very rigid standards for equipment safety so anything you do have is more than likely not legal. We will loan you the gear you need and help you make or aquire your own.

At Granite Spyre, we take safety seriously. Our park adheres to strict weapon design and construction rules as outlined by the Amtgard rule of play, which helps minimize the risk of injury during gameplay. Rest assured, our community members have a great track record of playing safely and responsibly.

Wee don’t expect you to have any knowledge of the rules before showing up.

Feel free to arrive knowing nothing at all, just bring your fun loving attitude!


Turns out its not recommended to leave small children at home alone. You are welcome to bring your children to the park! That said, our sport is aimed at adults and, although safe, does restrict those under the age of 14 from participating until they are deemed safe.

Our park does include playgrounds!

There is more to Amtgard than fighting. We have a strong crafting community and fun social components to be excited about.

Not only that, we are just plain fun to hang out with.
