Introduction

I'm an avid gamer and will try anything once. I prefer meatier strategy games and the less luck involved the better.

What was your favorite game to play as a child? What about now? What was the last game that you played? What "partnership" game do you enjoy? What is your favorite "party game?" How old are your kids and what are their favorite games?

Favorite games as a child were Twix and Risk. Now I have favs all over the place but really enjoy Power Grid, War of the Ring, New World, Notre Dame, and Phoenicia. Partnership games: Shadows Over Camelot or Scotland Yard. No kids yet :(

What John Hathorn is saying about this Meetup Group

I know of more than a few member of the Central Texas Board Games Meetup who have, and want to play, these kinds of Epic Games. This meetup is your chance!

  • Hi John, thanks for the greeting. I'm no pro, but I love to play and have steadily improved since I started playing a few years ago. On some courses I'm better than others. Open to feedback and tips on my technique!

  • Yeah, man. I'm interested in playing sometime. I definitely want to meet up when I get a disc. How often do you guys get together in the central Austin area?

  • Hey, John, I would love to know when y'all meet.

    I have just started a new job and our schedules are kind of weird, but one or both of us would definitely be interested in coming to a group if we could. You can calso find me on Boardgame geek under the same nickname.
