The build
A field does not appear overnight. This page is the record of getting one out of the ground — the ugly parts included.
Where things stand
-
Done
Name, brand, and plan
Sector 419 exists on paper. The name, the badge, and the shape of what we want to run are settled.
-
In progress
Finding the ground
Walking properties in the Lima area. We are after wooded acreage with road access, room to park, and neighbors who are not going to mind the noise. This is the step everything else waits on.
-
Next
Permits, zoning, and insurance
Zoning approval, liability coverage, and the paperwork that turns a field into a business.
-
Next
Clearing and layout
Cutting trails, marking boundaries, setting up the safe zone and staging area, and laying out the first game zones.
-
Next
Structures
Bunkers, towers, and buildings. This is the part that makes a field memorable, and the part we are most looking forward to.

To be announced
Opening day
Gates open. The roster hears the date before anyone else.
Photos
There is nothing to photograph yet. Once the ground is ours, this fills up fast — clearing, construction, and the first games played on it.
Clearing
Photos go here once work starts.

Want to help build it?
There will be work days — clearing brush, hauling pallets, framing structures. If you want your hands on this field before you play on it, say so and we will call you when the chainsaws come out.
