We kicked off A Red & Pleasant Summer last night with a big group of happy Dungeon World players.

Thanks to David LaFreniere for running the other table, and to everyone else who came out: Scott Owen Kristen D Jorge Salazar Russell Benner Kyle Kowalski Stephanie Daniel Fowler Kyle McCauley Ferrell Riley Marcus Centurian and Jeff Burke!

I’m looking at all the Meetups scheduled.

I’m looking at all the Meetups scheduled. Are there one or more of the weekly meetups that are the best places for jumping in and getting to know people and the group? As much as I’d love to do them all, my wife’s love is finite and one day a week is going to be my limit. 🙂

(Also, it’s still a month or more before I’ll be in Houston, so maybe it’s too early to be asking, but I’m excited.)

iOS Board Game Club!

If anyone is interested in playing iOS board games together, I thought we could use this thread for organizational purposes.

Many of the games use your Game Center ID for matchmaking. Others have their own separate logins. If you list a game you are interested in playing, please be sure to include the necessary info.

Here are the games I am interested in playing:

Agricola (username jgc742)

Small World 2 (Game Center ID JGCordova)

Carcassonne (Game Center ID JGCordova)

Ticket to Ride iPad (Game Center ID JGCordova)

Lost Cities (Game Center ID JGCordova)

Here are some pics from our weekend-long Dungeon World extravaganza. We discuss it at some length on the upcoming episode of The Gauntlet Podcast, but for now, just know that it was an extremely fun sixteen hours of DW.

Thanks to everyone who particpated: Jorge Salazar Daniel Fowler Kyle Kowalski Russell Benner David LaFreniere Jeff Burke and Stephanie!

Look at these smiling Dungeon World players! Don’t they look happy?

Those smiles will be gone soon.

#DeathFrostDoom4Life

Hi all.

Hi all. I’ll be moving to Houston in the next 1-3 months (I’ll be in the Jersey Village area). I’ve been lurking in this group for awhile since I knew I’d likely be moving this year, but now that it’s official and soon, I thought I’d introduce myself. I’m looking forward to playing games with many of you soon.

Some pics from Wednesday One-Shots. My table had a great time with Ray Otus’s Sorcerers & Sellswords. Dan’s table had a slightly-less-great time with Pickets & Blinds. Also, it was Kristen’s birthday!

Thanks to Daniel Lewis for prepping the other table, and for everyone else who came out: Kristen D Kyle Kowalski Steff Ferrell Riley Scott Owen and new guy, Andrew!

So um, hey Steve Mains

Apparently there is a rifftrax of The Room coming up in Houston.

This has nothing to do with games, but YOU GUYS SHOULD SEE THESE MOVIES!!

Sweet Beagle of Doom, I love Shane Curruth’s movies. Primer blew my mind, and I just watched Upstream Color. I don’t have time to watch many movies, so I’m glad I picked this one. The experience is what watching one of those bizarre creations in Rousseau’s Locus Solus would be like. Wow. Wow. Wow.

Here’s to the gamers who play!

We had a terrific weekend of gaming! On Thursday, we continued our Dungeon World campaign. Just a few loose ends and one more session before we head into Death Frost Doom and A Red & Pleasant Land.

On Friday, we had a board game night. We played some classics: Reiner Knizia’s Modern Art, Klaus Teuber’s Hoity Toity (Adel Verpflichtet, for you old-timers), and Uwe Rosenberg’s Bohnanza. You know, I used to be into board games the way I am currently into roleplaying games, and it felt good to get back into that spirit for a night.

On Sunday, though, we went back to roleplaying games with a vengeance, playing Brian Engard’s Becoming, a couple of quick ones called Char. Gen. and Agent Down, and then two games of the fabulous Cheat Your Own Adventure.
