FLGS in Madison, WI?

[Barendd Nobeard]

I'm in a class all week, in lovely Middleton, WI (next to Madison).

Any games stores in Madison worth checking out? (I assume that's a loaded question, but you never know...)

When I was there years ago there was one on state street, I can't remember the name anymore though. It had plenty of D&D, White Wolf, GURPS, Shadowrun, a few miniatures, and other RPGs. This was during 2e years so I don't know if they carry d20 stuff, or even if they are still there, (Although I would say probably yes to both).

The "only game store in town" is Pegasus Games in Market Square. It's even fairly close to Middleton (I'd guess a 10-15 minute drive).

The State Street Pegasus, sadly, closed last year.

Thanks, Eric. I'll check it out on the way home one day this week.

Pegasus at Market Square is the best store in town. There is a tiny game store near the top of State Street, and one struggling along on Johnson across from University Square, but Pegasus is your best bet.

Pegasus isn't the only FLGS; there's also Misty Mountain, although Pegasus is closer to Middleton. Misty Mountain at 4526 Monona, on the other side of the lake. It has a selection similar to Pegasus, but has a few things that Pegasus doesn't.

Oh yeah, I think I even saw a TV ad for that Misty Mountain place (it's actually in Monona, right?). Next time I'm in that area I should stop in...

I just went to Pegasus Games last weekend while visiting a friend who lives in the square. It is a good game store, its not Games Plus, but it has a nice selection, decent help and a better than average layout.

Yep, it's in Monona. They advertised during Buffy last year, but I haven't seen any of their ads recently. They've got LAN gaming setups and a few other things, but really the only reason I go there is because they carry Magi Nation cards.

Since I'm going home via Beltline, I can hit them both one day after class. Thanks for the info.!
