Events / Tables

Chess / Classic Games

There will be a table set up for chess, standard deck cards, and other classic games.

Tabletop Games

There will be a table set up with many card/board games for people to try. We will try to have someone available to help explain how to play them. Games vary in length.

Trading Card Games

There will be a table or two setup for Trading card games. Bring your own deck of Lorcana or Magic the Gathering or use one of our loaner sets. We will have premade decks for Magic’s Commander format as that allows the most flexible number of players in a single game. Games vary in length from half an hour to an hour.

 

Roleplaying Games

There will be several tables of games set up. Roleplaying games require at least one Gamemaster/Dungeonmaster/Narrator for each table of 4-5 additional players. Games are either 2 hour intro demos for people to find out about the game or 4 hour sessions. Characters can be brought by scouts and leaders who know the game system or pre-generated characters will be provided.

Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition will be available, as will other similar systems where gamemasters are available to run games. For those who want to volunteer to run a game (youth or adult) sign up here: https://forms.gle/Xzj5UdebzaYubjzE6 . All games should focus on teamwork, so no player vs player combat. Other advice will be provided to anyone who volunteers to be a gamemaster. We will have books and PDF’s for at least the following systems: Pathfinder 1e, Pathfinder 2e (High Fantasy), Dungeon Crawl Classics (Weird Dangerous Fantasy), Ryutamma (Peaceful exploration), Star Wars D6 (Space Opera), Starfinder, Starfinder 2e playtest(Sci-Fantasy)), Numenera (post apocalyptic sci-fantasy), Daggerheart playtest (High Fantasy).

 

Multi-Table Roleplaying Game

This will be an assault by many players on the great necromancer’s castle.
