We run massive public tabletop roleplaying events. The hardest part of being a grownup D&D fan is how difficult it is to get 5+ people together once a week to roll some dice, trigger some traps, and fight some monsters. We brought D&D back to the people by bringing it to breweries and restaurants.

If you like to play spades, talk trash and have fun then this is the group for you! Bring your skills or lack thereof because all skill levels are welcome. We'll bring the decks. Many people who attend play with jokers and some play without. There are no "house rules" so rules are decided by the table you join. Don't be surprised if you hear something new! (We've heard it all, lol.) This group is based in the southside Richmond area, but we have meetups in the surrounding counties as well. Venue recommendations are always appreciated.
As always, Scott's Addition Board Game Society is committed to fostering inclusive communities for gamers to have fun. We believe that games bring people together.

This meetup group was founded to bring together tabletop board and card game players. Our members include gamers in the Hopewell, Colonial Heights, Petersburg, Prince George, Fort Lee and Chester areas, and we hold meetups in various locations in these communities, from members' residences to public forums and local restaurants. We typically offer one or two gaming options per week.
