The historic Boardgame And RPG Enthusiasts Group is organizing online boardgames each wednesday, at 8:30 pm - 11:30pm on their online discord. Join a welcoming community for folk near and far, young and old, of every shape, ability, and gender identity, as they enjoy digital boardgames and chatting in our discord voice channel to build a fun online community, centered around boardgames and roleplaying games. Chatting in the discord requires a microphone for your personal computer and a discord account. You can join our discord for free at the following web address. [https://discord.gg/nagJvNAmvs](https://discord.gg/nagJvNAmvs) There are many different methods we use to play board games online, but the most common is a free website, Boardgame Arena. It is accessible through an app or from most web browsers, and facilitates live games of over 480 of the most popular boardgames. It's easy to use! All you need is an email address and you can sign up for a free account here: [https://en.boardgamearena.com/account?page=newuser](https://en.boardgamearena.com/account?page=newuser) Some games often played by members on BGA include, but are not limited to; Innovation, Space Base, Railroad Ink, Race for the Galaxy, 7 Wonders, Welcome To, and many more. We also use the discord to coordinate future events, and with the recent access to widespread vaccination we are in the process of carefully opening up some live and in-person events. Come join us to be a part of the planning, or just for the most recent updates! This meeting will be a freeform gaming event. Freeform Gaming meetings are open gaming events where everyone is welcome (and encouraged!) to suggest any games they would like to play. If you suggest a game, please be prepared to teach it to others, or make it clear up front if it will be a learning game for everyone. Rules lawyers and game-crappers should feel free to stay home. To attend, all that we ask is that you review the Group Guidelines ([http://www.meetup.com/bn-bareg/messages/boards/thread/4892770](http://www.meetup.com/bn-bareg/messages/boards/thread/4892770)). While not required, RSVPing helps let us plan how to break up groups for games ahead of time. Knowing beforehand, if we have room for a 6 player game of Codenames, or if someone is wanting to play a 5 player game of Terraforming Mars, makes things a little easier to plan. We hope to see you there!

Bring what you have been working on and we can't wait to see you there! Check out our discord for up to date event info. You can also join via our discord channel (https://discord.gg/c9ZzUPRjc5) in the "Monthly Meetup" Voice Channel

Firstly we play all week and not only on Friday nights, so come and take a look and say hi in the Discord 😊 Random members of the group gather in discord and play games on Friday night! Depending on my schedule I may or may not be able to join! But many members are there so feel free to drop by and put something together! It says from 8-10pm but we often go on till 11 or 12. Most of the games are completely free and can be joined via browser or a link! Come and join, everyone is super friendly and willing to help newbies. We play all kinds of games such as Among us, Board games, Jackbox Party Pack, Codenames and lots more. We also play many PC games on steam in the discord during the week. Such as Rocket League, Valorant, Elder Scrolls Online, WoW, Fall Guys, Overcooked 2, Rainbow Six Siege etc.. We usually get between 10-20 people join directly via the Discord so don't worry if not many have joined from this page, many people always join on Friday night :) The event is completely free to join ;) See you there! Just come and say "hi" Aaron (or Taro in the discord)

SDK study group. We play, watch lectures, and review games

Friday's open meetup is the place for small talk, meeting new people and exchanging ideas. Join our discord server and chat in a relax and friendly setting. There is no formal structure for those meetings, and you're free to come up with whatever topic you want. Some examples: * You want to have someone to talk to while working out a concept * You need motivation to work on your project each week * You want to stream your development * You want to learn about the Luxembourgish game dev community * You have general questions about game development * You need technical help * You want to collaborate * You want to present a project * You want to talk about games * You have nothing better to do * Etc... Since it's a weekly event, we don't really expect people to rsvp (except if you need to see the server link). Just drop in whenever you like, use the text channel or go straight into voice chat. Everybody is welcome! Spoken/common language is usually English. Discord: *Please note that you will need a verified discord account in order to access the server, so it's better to handle that in advance.*

Keep in mind that ALL Covid protocols are in effect until further notice. All meetups will be held ONLINE utilizing available RPG Virtual Tabletop Servers. Roll20, Astral, Foundry, World Anvil and others are available. The New Sentries Chapter of the Calgary D&D Meetup Group is open to all members, but will mainly be concerned with introducing new players to our great hobby, and re-introducing players who have not had the dice in their hands for a while. For all new members, most answers to your questions can be found in our FAQ and Code of Expected Conduct on our Welcome to the Group Forum. Please be sure to watch the message boards for more information as scheduling changes take place between updates. Information on your respective tables can be found on the Message Board Forums, at: https://www.meetup.com/CalgaryDnDMeetup/messages/boards/

Welcome to the new virtual format of the Catan meet up. We use Catan Universe to play online. Log on to CatanUniverse.com and be ready to share your username with the group. If you have reached level 3 within Catan Universe, please join the Guild most of us are in called Settlers of Gotham. The most popular platform to play CU is through Steam, although some play via their web browser. At the time of the meetup, first connect to the Zoom link provided to meet everyone. We will share our screen names on Catan Universe and start a game via Catan Universe. We will go to breakout rooms, if we have more than one game going. It is ok to join at any time. We will do our best to accommodate everyone. If you haven't set up an account with Catan Universe, please try to do it before the meet up time as it suggests a tutorial. We recommend completing the tutorial to get gold, suns, scrolls (this will make more sense when you've been on the site a while). I'm excited to see everyone soon! We play Settlers the second Saturday and the third Sunday of every month . We play a mix of traditional (3-4 player) or expansion (5-6 player) Settlers as well as Knights & Cities and/or Seafarers. Newbies are always welcome. We'll teach you the game. We look forward to playing with you! Thanks

This week is Twos-day on a Wednesday. Bring your favorite 2 player games and be ready to teach some and learn others. We'll bounce around and get to know new people and new games. Think speed dating but without the stress, romance or dating! And we don't judge, if you'd prefer to stick to bigger games by all means, go for it! The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group! The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play. Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.

**⚔️ Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry ⚔️** Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$25**, you’ll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint — a **$40-$70 value if you were to buy them elsewhere!** (Please look up the price of minis, you are getting a steal). Bring your creativity, relax, and let’s make something awesome together. **Choose one from Below:** * 20 Cathayan Infantry * 20 Dwarf Warriors * 20 Wood Elf Spearmen Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**. My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession. During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form. Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations. **🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**
