Introduction

I'm a roleplayer and boardgame player living and working in the southwest/west metro area. I love to play all kinds of strategy boardgames and some card games. I'm not much into wargames or what I call party games, like Taboo or Apples to Apples.

What is your favorite board game and what board game would you love to try out?

My all-time favorite game is Cities and Knights of Catan. One game that I have, but have not had the opportunity to play with anyone is Diplomacy (I have only played the computer version.)

Additional Information

"Generally, I am looking for interesting people to play games with. My ideal game is as much about interesting conversation as it is about stimulating game play."

  • Welcome, Jack! Hey, we're in a group together again! You'll love this one. Keep an eye out for Yoga Quest, which is oddly addictive, and the Aikido workshops, which are simply awesome, and Foam Dart Tag, which is just plain silly.

  • Thanks for your message. I have mixed feelings about moving back to Cali, but overall, good ones. I've re-applied to grad school, for instance. :-)

  • Hey, I just read your idea for a grey jedi character in an old KotOR thread, and thought I might send you a message. You see, I just recently began building just such a character for a Clone Wars Era campaign. In fact, the guiding ideology of a Force undivided is exactly the same as well! Talk about Serendipity.

  • Hi Jack! I just sent you an e-mail to respond to your questions. We'd love to have you come and check it out!

  • Reliable player with a lot of experience. Jack is a good team player

  • Our first game at the marathon was Cities & Knights with Jack, Mike, Brett, and Nate. What could be better at 7:30 AM? Jack crushed the rest of us but was always a gentleman. We're looking forward to gaming with him again in the future!
