Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Boston Game Night - JJ Foley's, Tuesday, June 25th

I want to try this out but doesn't it take hours to play? and a lot of room?
I love Risk.
Eric actually mentioned to me that he'd like if someone had Risk.
Not sure where my copy is after the move - if I can track it down this weekend, I'll bring it, but just in case - if anyone else has Risk, can you bring it along?Never mind - found it. I'll bring it along on Tuesday.
It was mentioned last time and for some reason it stuck with me as a great change of pace from the usual. I haven't played Risk in many years though... Just getting that disclaimer out there right now.
(Sorry, someone had to say it.)
It doesn't matter what territories im actually in control of come Tuesday's game of Risk, I WILL talk just like that!
I own it and have never played it, but my friends suck with doing stuff even more than I do.
... yes :\

Going to have to double-check my availability but I'm hoping to be there for the next one.
Next one is this coming Tuesday! Come one down - we're a friendly lot! That being said, if you're a hardcore boardgamer (i.e. if you played boardgames at least one night a week for 10+ years
Also, if you follow the link in the OP to the Facebook event, you'll see that it's part of a group called Boston Area PAXers. I tend to post this to both the PA forums and the FB group. There are lots of gamers in the FB group if you're looking for some local games. I believe Reddit also has a Boston area boardgamer subreddit - Arson probably has more info on that than I do. There are plenty of resources for local gaming if you're interested!
See, that's perfect, since I tended to lean more towards the bevvy of tabletop RPGs and a mid-to-heavy smattering of board games, girlfriend has only recently come out of her shell and expanded past the classic games, so this sounds like the right crowd for us as I'm a bit rusty and she'd be just learning a lot of games.
... well, other than Magic. In the time since PAX she's probably played upward of 90 hours of MTG, either with me using random decks or on Duels2012. She actually beats me now, it's amazing and mortifying at the same time.
I'll have us both hop over to the Facebook event to RSVP for it (she doesn't use forums, really) and hopefully we'll see you there!
Sounds good - I usually put out a call for any game requests the day before, so I can make sure to bring down what people want to play. Just let me know what you're interested in, and I'll make sure someone brings it!
