Wrengardin Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Hey there! This is my first post on this forum.....basically, I'm relatively new to Buffalo and was looking for people who are interested in your normal "board game nights" (taboo, pictionary, settlers, cranium, etc....possibly with good food and wine.) Is this mostly for heavy duty gamers or would anyone be interested in setting something like this up? I'm also interested in local museums, coffee shops/tea houses, arts and cultural events, and that sort of thing. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsbrat Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Hi Wren! Welcome to the area. This board is geared to the online gaming community, lan parties, etc, but you might want to check out http://coffee.meetup.com/392/ for a coffee night coming soon! There has been talk amongst a few of the regulars at the coffee shop starting a board game night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrengardin Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 Welcome to town Wren! What are these "board games" of which you speak? Well, though I know most of you would be more into strategy board games (since this sounds like that sort of community), I more meant social, quicker games like Taboo, Scattergories, Therapy, Cranium, Scene It!, dictionary, snowballs, etc. I wasn't sure if anyone's gaming interest stretched into more of the social realm. Thanks for your replies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarSpartan Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I enjoy boardgaming However the social type games arent my speed Im more of a strategy board gamer -> Axis & Allies Or a RPG'ish gamer -> Talisman (basically D&D in boardgame format, pretty fast & fun) In all I like something with a little competition. If thats still okay then I'd be game to try out a game night. Thanky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Now I'm getting the urge to pull out an old classic... Dark Tower, which was a very cool eletronic board game. -- Nem I enjoy boardgaming However the social type games arent my speed Im more of a strategy board gamer -> Axis & Allies Or a RPG'ish gamer -> Talisman (basically D&D in boardgame format, pretty fast & fun) In all I like something with a little competition.
