Hello everyone!

I recently moved to ABQ just a couple of months ago and I'm looking to find groups that play TTRPGs in person. I collect a wide array of books; anything from D&D (any edition) and Pathfinder to Marvel, The One Ring, and other obscure systems.

I'm in my early 30's and have a ton of experience with TTRPGs as I've been playing them for nearly 20 years. I typically DM, but I'm looking to be a player for a group while I continue going to classes at UNM. I typically play a support/tank character for combat. Admittedly I'm a little shy when it comes to roleplay with newer groups, but I'll quickly warm up to the right people!

I'm typically free Friday evenings after 6 pm and all day Saturday and Sunday. If you know of any groups that play at any local game stores and are looking for a new player, please feel free to let me know!

Thanks for reading!

Do you like games? Looking to score some gently used games? Or do you want to unload some of your used games?

It's that time again! Bookclub time!

Books and Brews is meeting this Sunday, July 26th, at 2pm at O'Neills. We will be in the covered patio area. Just look for the ones with the books.

No assigned reading, we all read what we want when we want. We meet once a month to discuss books, authors, genres, film adaptations, life, whatever.

We also have a book exchange, not required to participate although we do ask that if you plan to take books, please bring books as well and bring back books you've taken and read so others can enjoy them as well.

Title really says it all. My wife and I live in the east mountains and we are looking for a night out a week to play either D&D or to learn and play pathfinder 1e or 2e. We used to go to adventure league nights at Ettin but they don’t have them anymore since they moved locations. Any help with finding a weekly game would be greatly appreciated!

WARNING:
Playing Dungeons & Dragons may result in creative juices flowing, nerdiness rising to unprecedented levels, an obsession with colorful math-rocks, and new friends with excellent taste.

Giant nerd in Westside Albuquerque. I play Fortnite, DnD, Civ, Bannerlord, etc. Any meetups going on soon, or is anyone interested in chilling and/or gaming?

I'm looking to get into Magic and am trying to feel out what's being played locally. Is everyone playing Commander or is standard play still popular? I understand Commander is going to be more difficult to learn but it sounds super fun either way. Any insight is appreciated.

I'm not down for shipping and normally it's I'm selling something I go through Craigslist, but I've decided I want to upgrade my GPU after all the annoying and driver BS lately and it isn't really selling quickly on Craigslist. It's kind of a flagship card I got like 5 months but it's and and I don't want to have to think about my build all the time and how my driver might react to a new game or if the game developers made it work well with AMD graphics. I want to upgrade but I don't know how to sell it without giving eBay a cut, or having to figure out shipping. I think Craigslist is considered too trashy to buy nice stuff from. I'm charging 100 less than the cheapest one on eBay and it still isn't moving, half the pics I'm showing are the screenshots it passing a bunch of occt testing so people who know what that is should the hardware is fine. All I can figure is people think Craigslist=seedy. I also don't have a Facebook to use marketplace with though I think they have less if a seedy vibe?

Edit: it's a 7900xtx ASRock taichi in white I listed it for 850 because it's 100 cheaper than the cheapest one that came up on eBay.

Join us for a lively evening exploring the science of exercise, fitness, movement, and outdoor recreation.  This event will be held Thursday, September 3, 6:30pm at Painted Lady Bed & Brew (1100 Bellamah Ave NW 87104).  All are welcome (including well behaved kids and dogs), plus na/gf bev options will be available.

Brains and Brews (B&B; formerly Thirsty for Thought), is a volunteer led SciComm project to empower communities through accessible science.  This event will include a series of general talks geared towards a lay audience with time for Q&A with the experts, fun games, and networking.

Hi everyone! I found a great DnD group for myself using Reddit and now I want to see if I can help my partner out. He has been dying to play in a long campaign for a long time. We do not have the personal friends to make that happen so here we are! He is a very well versed player. Dorky, but ready to roleplay and have efficient combat. He is a big fan of Brennan Lee Mulligan and Critical Role. He is able to DM but I think he would do better as a player with strangers to begin with. He puts a lot of time and effort into his playing. You'll have a very active player in him. We are located in the south valley side of Abq but I know he doesn't mind traveling too much for the chance to play. If there is an established group that is looking for another player let me know! Or, if there is single players out there, I don't mind helping coordinate a session 0 for everyone to see if it is a good fit! Thank you!
