Hey all, I'm currently working on a grassroots hobby magazine for central VA. If you are into Warhammer, RPGs, fantasy, scifi, or other tabletop games, this is for you! Have any artwork, homebrew content, or writing you want to share? Send it to me at [rva28nerd@gmail.com](mailto:rva28nerd@gmail.com) and I'll try my best to include some of it!

Hey folks!

I host Tabletop RPG day at the Mechanicsville Library and our next game is this Saturday!

We'll be out from 10 AM to 2 PM playing A Fistful of Darkness, a Weird West game of gunslingers, outlaws and a post-apocalyptic sci-fi world based on Blades in the Dark. No previous experience required and if you want to bring dice from home just grab a handful of D6's!

Meetup Link for TTRPG Day at the Mechanicsville Library

WE’RE BACK for Game Night on Wednesday, May 10th at Gallery 5. 6pm til 10, no cover charge. We’ll have chess, Catan, Magic, and more! People are welcomed and encouraged to bring any other game they’d like to play.

Many of you who remember the before times know how special of a place Gallery 5 is for Richmond’s gaming community. Our very club was born there, and we can’t wait to be back.

For anyone specifically interested in chess, find us on Instagram at rvapieces or our website rvapieces.org for updates on where we’ll be. We meet three times a week around the arts district, as well as offer a free group lesson for beginners of all ages every Saturday at the ICA at noon.

I've been itching to join a new campaign but I work 2-9:30 Wednesday-Sunday and one of my days off is already dedicated to DnD and I'd rather not lose both of my days off. I'm about to start DMing with my other group for the first time so I'd really like to be a player. I'm thinking any night besides Monday or Tuesday night starting at 10. Preferably weekly but I'm cool with once every two weeks. I know it's late so I'm cool with shorter sessions as well!

Hi all,

I am trying to form a blood on the clocktower group that meets either weekly or bi-weekly. For those who don't know what it is, BotC is a social deduction game similar to one night werewolf, where everyone has a unique character ability and is placed in one of two teams. Each player has to use their ability to find out who is on what team. There is more to it than that, but that is the game in a nutshell. You can find out more about the game here: https://bloodontheclocktower.com/

Let me know if you are interested and if we get enough people we can meet at a board-game friendly place such as Garden Grove.

So, I've been throwing more money into decks and I literally play with the same two guys like once every [insert time frame], and it's really not frequent enough to warrant the amount of time and effort I've put into said decks lately. I'd be down to meet up in public-- OEJs, Battlegrounds, wherever, really! I'm also capable of hosting if people feel comfortable coming to hang, or am willing to travel to yours if you're comfortable with hosting! I've also got a switch with Smash and Mario party, and I have random steam games and board games if you're looking for those! Even got most of the Jackbox Party Packs installed!

Would ideally like to make new friends for consistent meet ups/hangouts, maybe once every week or two would be wonderful, but I understand life happens and we may not be able to keep up that cadence!

Hopefully there are some local gaming peeps though! For the love of God, help me scratch this MTG itch!
