Pathfinder Society 7-02: Shipyard Sabotage [1-4]
Pathfinder Society 7-02: Shipyard Sabotage [1-4]
This is a level 1-4 scenario connected to the Season 7 Pathfinder Society meta-plot involving hostilities between Cheliax and Andoran. Scenario is not marked as repeatable by Paizo, however, replayers are welcome to join in for another go. Hope to see you join us as we get a Pathfinder scene going at Game Kastle! Tensions are high following the Battle of Hellknight Hill, and while Cheliax hasn't taken any direct action, they've encouraged privateers to attack Andoran shipping. One of these pirates is especially overconfident, and believes she can win more favor with a more direct attack–one on the Augustana shipyards. Coincidentally, the Pathfinder Society is in the market for a new ship, and the heads of Supplies and Procurement are touring some that are available when the attack begins. As the escorts to Nairaba and Kitsch, the two aforementioned heads of their divisions, it's up to you to keep your charges safe while dealing with the chaos. Written by Hilary Moon Murphy. **Scenario tags**: Hellfire Crisis

TTRPG Story Game Sunday
TTRPG Story Game Sunday
We are a group of tabletop RPG hobbyist with some common values about the games we play: * In person, analog play. * We value player engagement in the narrative over the specific rules or system. * Despite the above, we are interested in systems. If you like games from Chris McDowall, Quinn's Quest, or Between Two Cairns, you are more likely to find a group discussing/playing these games, compared to D&D, or Pathfinder. * Beginner players are welcome. We're happy to show off this little corner of the hobby. * New GMs are welcome to sharpen their skills with players who won't judge you while you learn to swim. The only GM rule is don't take yourself too seriously. * This is an inclusive group, provided you can demonstrate the social norms expected of a sober adult, both in and out of game. Respect for other's identity is enforced, accommodation of ego is not. * This is a low commitment meetup. You may find like-minded players for a longer campaign here, but the focus of this group is drop in play. Still, when there are many aspirational players, it can make it difficult to coordinate actual players. Please consider setting aside the time and be emotionally ready for in person play with strangers BEFORE joining the online conversation. * We meet every Sunday afternoon within transit distance of downtown Baltimore. How to Join: Currently, we meet at [No Land Beyond](https://www.nolandbaltimore.com/), Sundays at 4PM. Online conversation about the games we are playing can be found on the No Land Beyond [discord server](https://discord.com/channels/677232960612859905/1495798511441154249) (I probably won't check the chat or reservations on the meetup site).

Popular Board Games and Card Games
Popular Board Games and Card Games
We invite you to get acquainted with some popular modern European board games. We grew up enjoying Careers, Clue, Monopoly, and other such games. These new games are even better. They are easy to learn and are loved by a wide range of players. People will be available to teach how to play each of the games described below. Beginners are welcome. Everyone is welcome to bring other board games and card games that you think people will enjoy. The Mexican Train domino game, Stone Age, and Alhambra are likely to be available. Scrabble and Rumikub have been mentioned as possibilities. **TICKET TO RIDE**: Engaging for players of almost any age, Ticket to Ride is great fun. The rules are simple, but deciding what plays to make in any specific game situation remains interesting and enjoyable for years. **CATAN**: In this game players act as competitive settlers. They acquire resources, trade them with other players, and build and develop their holdings on the island of Catan. Players gain victory points as their settlements grow. A feature that makes it easy to enjoy this game over and over is that the island is different for every game. It consists of hexagonal terrain tiles that can connect in any order. **CARCASSONNE**: Players take turns placing tiles to build a land with cities, farms, roads, and cloisters. They earn points by claiming and completing those things. This game remains enjoyable, time after time, for years. All are invited to come to the Lodge as guests of Virginia Colin. Please make sure that she signs you in. Drinks and good quality bar food will be available for purchase. Salads, onion rings, and sweet potato fries are recommended by many of us.

Hey all, thought I'd screen the classic movie Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle! Bring your popcorn and your friends.... Thought it would be a good idea to watch these irreverent cult classic movies 😎 I figure we should turn this into a double feature where I show the first And second Harold and Kumar films. Come stoned and enjoy 😅
