NC Game Day XIII (April 21-22): aka "Mini-GenCon"

[fiddlerjones]

True20 Starcraft: Reclamation

Five years after the conclusion of Brood War, the Terran Dominion is in dire straits. Emperor Arcturus Mengsk has directed a valiant effort to liberate former Terran planets overrun by the insectoid Zerg. However, this "Reclamation," as he has deemed it, begins to seem more and more as simply a way to stave off the inevitable. You are fresh Terran infantry: ghosts, firebats, marines, medics. And you find yourselves on the front lines of the Reclamation.

The schedule will say d20 Future but the game is being run in True20 (www.true20.com).
I will send a small setting supplement to all players in the form of a word document.

I know something that y'all don't know ...

Which is???

OK All --

So it looks Raleigh-Durham is a nice RPG community. I am considering a move from sunny SoCal to Cary, NC and I am hoping that I can get some players to DM.

How easy it is to find players?

What is the gaming community like?

We've got lots of gamers here and, if I may toot my own horn a bit, we've got an awesome Game Day going in the area three times a year. As for meeting potential players, I'd recommend coming to one of the NC Game Days (the next one is the one this thread is about) to meet people. Also there are several good gaming stores in the area, notable All Fun & Games. There are monthly dinners for gamers to gather at there and that's another good meeting spot.

This all sounds great. Unfortunately, if I do move out that way, it won't be until June or so, but an April trip may be scheduled to look at houses (I plan on buying in the Cary area -- it is nice from what I hear, anyone with opinions?)

Maybe I can schedule my visit to coincide with gameday?

Cary's a nice town. Very close to Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, all chock-full of gamers. I have some friends that live there, and they all seem to enjoy it. Sci-fi Genre is a great gamestore in Durham, and you can meet a lot of potential players there. If you can make friends with some college students, I know that UNC's gaming club has a game night most Saturdays. Mostly students, but some older gamers that have been going since I can remember. Good luck, and we'd love to have you 'round here.

There are three Gamedays a year -- usually January, April, and September -- if and when you come out to the Cary Area, we'd love to see you there. the website ncgameday.dhorizon.org will always have posted the next gameday a month or two before it happens.
