Introduction

Initially, to publicize a specific game, but it will be good to have a connection to local gamers in general.

What types of games are you interested in (roleplaying, miniatures, card games, etc.)?

Mostly RPGs (tabletop and LARP), but some boardgames.

How many years have you been a gamer?

About three decades.

What's your favorite game of all time?

I still have a fondness for 1st edition AD&D.

What's your least favorite game of all time?

I'd have to think about that. As a category, CCGs don't excite me.

    "http://www.meetup.com/Wickford-Pathfinder-AD-D-3-5

    Join the darkside, Eric. Pathfinder is what AD&D always should have been, and was for a while. I'm starting a new group using modules made by people who worked for TSR during 1st edition. Be one of the up to six players. :)"

    "Pentex Office Party" LARP at TempleCon

    "I'm running a comedy horror LARP on the Saturday night of TempleCon (templecon.org). The game starts and runs late -- 11 PM to around 2:30 AM or so -- but will have a good, sizeable location at the hotel. ... MoreHere's the blurb for the game: It's the Generic Winter Holiday Party at Pentex's Providence headquarters in the old Orne Jewelry Building! Henry D. Gardner, Vice President of New England Corporate Operations, has invited movers, shakers, go-getters, and, apparently, you to celebrate the season -- and yet another successful merger. Mingle with the company's best and brightest over stuffies and pizza strips, and never mind that killjoy in the lab coat who keeps saying, "It's escaped." System: Old WOD Mind's Eye Theatre (post-"Laws of the Night Revised"), with some cross-genre-interaction house rules. There will be a brief overview of the rock-paper-scissors-driven system for the unfamiliar or forgetful. Pregenerated character types include Black Spiral Dancers, Shadow Court fae, low-arete Nephandi, Sabbat vampires, sorcerors, psychics, fomori, spies, and just plain normal office workers who have no idea what's really going on. Players capped at 20ish. Please contact Eric (lhp.nwod at gmail) for more information. cheers, Eric "
