[QUOTE="SiderisAnon, post: 3791970, member: 44949"] The local gaming store changed owners at the beginning of the year. Under the new management, there have been several things that are now well stocked that were rarely found before. These are things which I, as a customer, appreciate. Adventures for the games, including a variety of levels. This is especially important for me in D&D now as that's what I play, but when I was running Shadowrun I used to lament the lack of adventures. Back then, there were three gaming stores in Albuquerque and I would go to one specifically because it was the only one in town to stock any Shadowrun adventures. (But that was also back in the days of FASA...) Gaming accessories like gaming mats you can write on. Sure, the WoTC tiles are pretty and all, but I really like being able to draw out maps on the fly. When the new management finally got some in stock, I bought two. (And they stocked various sizes. I bought two smaller ones. The really big ones can sometimes be too expensive.) A variety of board and card games. I like having some options to look at. Having some less expensive ones available, like Cheapass games, is nice too. Finally, have some DICE! That really should go without saying, but when there's only four sets of dice and they're all blue, it really keeps me from buying anything new. [/QUOTE]
