Hi Jim and Family

Your story isn't a new one sadly,

More and more people are gaming at home and stores are closing or down sizing our store moved to a smaller place due to lack of players taking advantage of gaming tables.

Back in the 70's gaming and scenery building walked closer together, the 90's brought forth a big increase in stores that provided gaming space but its reverting back now. the price of gas online shopping and other things are bringing gaming back to the inter basement state it once was.

Start looking for yahoo groups to join so you can stay active, your hobby needs your participation during these times. New England area has been hit the hardest so my distributers tell me so it maybe just a passing trend for NE or the future of table top gaming as a whole to early to tell I just hope more store's don't close cause everyone(stores) are "just" getting by and its not worth during year after year like the past two which maybe why so many have closed .

If your a gamer you have to be willing to do a bit more travelling now than before but the result is a greater bunch of people to game with our FOW group is one of the tightest fun groups to play with around every time we game its a blast and surely makes up for the weeks between games.

 

Hope this helped some also what was the name of the stare that closed?

Hi there,

 

The store was in East Providence and the name was Tactics. It was a great place to go and play and also a great place for people who wanted to learn abou the game. They had wonderful scenery and 8 Tables for gaming.

We really miss it I guess we were spoiled a bit. I would even have liked to have been able to grab the tables and scenery when they closed, but it happened so quickly that we went there one day and the next it was gone.

 

As for the traveling, NH is a bit out of our range  but if we can get up there I will post to you ahead of time to get a schedule.

If you hear of any gamers in the RI area please send them our way.

Sad to hear , We have tables and scenery if your interested we downed sized and dont offer playing area any more.

Travelling statement wasn't meant as you coming up this way just pointing out you'll need to travel further from your past location to game since so many places are closing.

 

Theirs a gaming group in the connecticut area you might try looking for on the yahoo groups you'll find RI players their.
