We are an adult Chicago based tabletop gaming/hobby club. We have been a club for about 7 years now and we have played many games along the way. We have built and run several tables for Games-Workshop Gamesday events. We are a tight knit group of friends who love miniature collecting and gaming. As a club, we focus on miniatures as a hobby and not only a gaming experience.
We are looking for self motivated individuals who are willing to participate in all aspects of club activities. This would include everything from playing games (including trying new games), assembling and painting miniatures and terrain (not all of which may be your own), maintaining the club house and running games at events. Prospective members must be hobbyists who are committed to the hobby as we have consistently met every Sunday (excluding some holidays) for the past 7 years. Members are only required to attend one session a month and we typically run from 12pm to 9pm. We also meet on other days of the week, however these are auxilliary sessions and are more lax. Sunday sessions are better organized and there is often a schedule for the day. While we do enjoy to goof off (grown men and women playing with little toys can't be completely serious, right?), we also value everyone's time and expect punctuality and communication from all members.
Joining requires that you send me an email with a subject of 'Basement Heretic Membership' to mynaymizkinko@comcast.net. In this email you must include your age (we do not allow members under 18), a description of yourself, your experience with the hobby and what you desire to accomplish.
We gather to play tabletop games, paint/assemble/convert minis, discuss armies and tactics and enjoy each others company. We love to try new games and are readily open to suggestions. We try to organize big projects to get all members involved.
