Spring Offensive,
the follow-up to Fall From Grace, was an informal
gathering of 40K gamers from around the United States, held at the Borderlands
store in Greenville, South Carolina, on April 20-22, 2001.

In between games, players
relaxed and enjoyed Borderlands' fine hospitality and friendly atmosphere.
