Anything up the Michigan Upper Peninsula?

Check the GW US website. It has a listing of gaming clubs and stuff. It's how I discovered one in Traverse City.

I'm curious about Seattle. I'm hoping to get stationed there early next year. I know their is a Battlebunker in one of the burbs just north of Seattle. Does anyone know of other good stores or clubs?

The gaming scene kind of bites in "The Lou."

(St. Louis, MO)


You can find D&D groups everywhere. RPGers are like spiders... there are more around than you think.

I only play 40K now, so that is all I can speak on.

There are 3 of us in our group and we've only ever met a SMALL handful of people we think are quality enough PEOPLE to invite to game with us. none of them could match our schedule (every Saturday... start at noon, usually end around midnight, or whenever you want to leave, if earlier).

I know there are regular groups that play, but not enough for such a large area... and no large place for gamers to gather.

GW Support... Shoot... Game stores AT ALL are almost non-existent since "The Hobby Shop" had to close.

There is ONE GW store (we should probably have 3 in the whole St. Louis metro area). It's about an hour from my house (and I drive FAST). I get there 3 or 4 times a year PLUS one or 2 tourneys a year. It's just too far to drive. It's not worth it.



Makes me wish I had the time and money to open a Hobby Shop. I know the perfect, centralized, location and everything.

I don't know when you lived here, but Cincinnati Ohio sucks for most gaming. Seems like a new store opens every year just as the previous years Grand Opener is closing. AT-43 is pretty hot around here now, but unless they fix their distribution issues, I can see it getting old fast.

It sounds like up the road 45 minutes in Dayton the scene is pretty good. The old Wexford hill store seems to pretty hot on Saturdays. the Ard Boyz Champion is outta that area.

Agree with Darrian13 and MagikalMemories

Game Empire in San Diego is a great place to game. I've had some of my best gaming experiences there in san diego while I was stationed there.

St. Louis, MO just about awful sucks. A long time ago, there was an awful lot of gaming goin' on, but since the coming of the GW store, trade accounts and FLGS' have been dropping like flies.

I haven't played a good game of....anything in quite some time. I'm almost completely out of the hobby, and honestly, my last serious gaming happened at Adepticon 2007. (GO DOK'Z TOOLZ!)

Dokz toolz for the WIN!

AND... Syracuse... well SNOW and Great GAMING!!! Tons of players here and lots of competition!
