It's crucial that you start with a game plan/ a blueprint for your event like you would do for any other event or party. In the following steps, I will essentially show you how toPLAN the best snowball fight ever with tips and tricks you'll be able to use every time.

It's crucial to have a smart set date for your next snowball fight, I suggest looking at the weather for a set date (should be end of December or January) a week in advance, and making sure
it has snowed for at least a day in advance. In addition, it's also recomended that you start your fight late miday to the night for the best results. But, overall, don't be too worried if it doesn't snow as much
as you expected, make sure to set an emergency "snow date", like you would for another event with a "rain date". Good luck with planning!
So...
Let's start with the basics.
Make sure you know how to at least make a snowball (to throw), how to build big snowballs, and how to make blocks of snow (numerous other guides online). I also reccommend using snowball or snowblock molds
to speed up the process for the actual fight. You don't actually have to buy snow molds if you have sand molds or jugs, jars, or buckets to fill up. The choice of weaponry is your decision. It's again, best to build up before the actual battle.
Freeze up some ice balls for cannon artillery, build up forts that will build up with snow from the night, and plan ahead of time with snacks and hot chocolate for breaks for the real event.

But, have fun stockpiling "weapons of mushy blankness", raise up the flags of the ploar bear and snow owl with snow igloos and forts, or create a fortress to defend against battling snow invaders, the fight is ultimately yours!
Raise igloos up by piling up snow blocks from molds, build up dominating fortresses, recreate the battle of the bulge, raze empires, and battle your way to a snowy victory.
Remember to plan ahead for when the event is, who to invite, and how you're battling. I suggest taking the battling to the next level. Regular snowball fights are "fun" ,but taking the battle further makes it intense, a "real" simulation
of AWESOMENESS. Have fun battling out your childhood dreams of wars in a great snowball fight. Whether you're a kid planning his/her next winter battle with friends, or just planning for fun. GOOD LUCK!
Remember, PLAN, STRATIGIZE, AND HAVE FUN :)
