Tabletop group in the DC area?
Tabletop group in the DC area?
This is a bit off-topic for finding games on these forums, but I noticed (or suspect) that there seem to be more than a few players on here who live reasonably close to DC. So I was wondering if (a) that's true, and (b) if some of the DC players wanted to try to get together for old-school tabletop games on a regular basis.

Jersey isn’t close enough for regular, but not that far for an annual get together or so. Just saying.
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

Way to far for regular, but an annual might be doable.

Okay, so that's possibly two for UnseenCon Capital Region...
Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
I'm in Fairfax, and while I'm probably not able to do a live group regularly, I'd be interested in CapitalCon!

Hey Zhym,
I sent you a PM, but I'm in the area and possibly available for RL gaming depending on time/place/etc. Also, would DEFINITELY be down for the annual kinda thing!

I'm tapped-out for regular play, but local for a CapitalCon weekend.
Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
I'm nowhere near the D.C. area, but I might be able to make a weekend trip if things ever develop.

I'm about six hours away in NC and I'm retiring at the end of January! I could drive up for a day of gaming.
Winter is coming...
Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
Oh, man. This may have to become a thing. The question is when and where.
I knew someone—let's call him "Barry"—who used to throw an annual "BarryCon" each year. Basically just rented out a banquet room in a suburban hotel. I might have to look into how much that would cost...

Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
Lots of local libraries in the area, if you're thinking a small venue. Some municipalities have those sorts of rooms, I know Glenarden did for a while. Depending on how the commercial property market is, maybe even find a place that's for sale or rent, and has power and water.

Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
harder to drink beer in a library vs. a hotel conf room
Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
I used to run D&D games at the local library in the late 80's. Most of the players were underage and plenty of beer was consumed, LOL.
Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
Isn't it cheaper right outside of DC than in it too?

Re: Tabletop group in the DC area?
I am definitely down for a gathering......another idea that I know some have had is renting an Air BnB for a weekend.....this of course assumes that either you're cool with spending the $ yourself or splitting it with some folks you may or may not know so well to crash the night or just help mitigate the cost.
I am cool with helping do that (crashing or not) as long as we're not talking crazy dough here.....I mean hell, if this is a once a year kinda thing, wth not?
