Gamer seeking group in Toronto

[chickstyle]

Hi there, I'm new to Toronto and as such no longer have a gaming group.

I'm looking for Shadowrun, Deadlands: Hell on Earth, White Wolf, In Nomine (though I've never played this one before) and Hero System games to join.

I've played quite a lot of Shadowrun and White Wolf stuff and less of the Hero System and Deadlands.
I like a good mix of role-playing and roll-playing in my games.

If anyone else in Toronto knows of local gaming stores that people can put notices up on, that would be appreciated as well. So far I haven't even found a store dedicated to gaming, just comic stores that carry a tiny amount of gaming books.

Try posting a thread in General Discussion asking for names/addresses of game stores in the Toronto area. That should give you a place to start.

Good luck!

I don’t know if there are gaming-dedicated stores in TO. Two good stores, both on Yonge (and I have no affiliated with either), are Hairy Tarantula and Grey Region. They both have RPGs and miniatures. Comics as well, of course.
I don’t know if they have postings, but perhaps they would consider doing so.

Best of luck!

As far as I know, there aren't any stores entirely dedicated to gaming, but there are a few comic/RPG/CCG/anime stores that have a lot of gaming materials. The biggest are:

The Silver Snail, on Queen St. a couple blocks west of Spadina
The Hairy Tarantula, on Yonge St. just north of Dundas
Grey Region (better for old OOP stuff than new stuff) on Yonge and Wellesley

If you're in northern Toronto, then Science Fiction World is at Steeles and Dufferin.
