Diplomacy Club: Los Angeles Legionnaires
🇺🇸Los Angeles, United States
Meetup.com

JOIN US ON OUR DISCORD FOR GAMES: We are the local Diplomacy board game group, the Los Angeles Legionnaires. We are a relatively young group with the goal of introducing new players to the game of Diplomacy. Diplomacy is a social strategy game where seven players engage in freeform negotiations with one another, maintaining nuanced relationships while each tries to expand their influence across the map. The game is simple to pick up, but no two games are ever the same. Diplomacy has a rich history dating back to its release in 1959, including the origin of the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop game which was first introduced at the 1972 Diplomacy Convention. We are currently enjoying a worldwide resurgence in the game's popularity, which you now have the opportunity to join!

Events held on Fridays from 6:30 PM to midnight at 925 W Diversey Pkwy (within the Holy Covenant United Methodist Church). You will find a bookshelf of board games and more that your fellow attendees have brought, and a table with snacks (you can also bring your own to share).

Classic games such as mahjong, rummy, Go, etc may make an appearance if that’s your jam, please bring a copy! Do I NEEEEEEeeedddd to donate? No. It is a donation! But, we will shake our heads and collectively say “for shame for shame" if you do not. But for seriously, the suggested donation of $10 directly benefits secular events held at the building (Holy Covenant United Methodist Church), and pays for the snacks, beverages and other administrative costs of using the space. OMG the meetup is full can I still come? Yes you can! We appreciate the RSVP because it helps us prepare the e

The group is casual and open to all, we can have just social hangouts or even board games, join pub quizzes , organise trips, you name it. You don’t need to live around here of course to join.

Heavyweight Boardgames Chicago
🇺🇸Chicago, United States
Meetup.com

Looking for a Chicago board game group that plays games with deeper strategy than Pandemic and Codenames? You've come to the right place! We play mid to heavyweight games (hence the name). How is this possible? Everyone signs up for a game in advance and watches a brief tutorial in advance of the meeting so we don't waste time learning the basics. You're not left wondering if you'll have a group to play with and what game you'll play, and you get a great breadth of games to play! Games will be listed in advance with available open spaces so you have the certainty of meeting some folks and playing a particular game with other players, and players have an interest in providing themes and offering up games to bring to events. We use a google sign-up sheet that is linked in each invite, but we inform the schedule with your feedback and requests. When you sign up for a game, tutorial videos are linked in the google sheet since you need to come with at least a basic understanding of what's going on to meet the time constraints, which are 6p-10p. Lastly, we support the venue (Fat Cat) since they're letting use their space for free. If you're a board game geek into mechanics, design, and looking for similar folks to have drinks/snacks and play games with, you've come to the right place!

Whether we’re hitting up a local pub, diving into a competitive board game marathon, or exploring the city, the goal is simple: Have fun. ​What’s the deal? ​Board Game Nights: From casual classics to "ruin-your-friendships" strategy games. ​Pub & Drink Meets: Grab a pint (or three) and just talk about whatever. ​Zero Pressure: No more "language exchange" structure. If you speak English, cool. If you speak Japanese, cool. We’re just here to hang. ​All Are Welcome: As long as you’re down for a good time, you’re in. ​We’ll let you know the vibe of each event, but expect way more "Cheers!" and way less "Repeat after me." ​🍻 飲んで遊んで、最高の週末を!🎲 ​「言語交換(Language Exchange)」の看板、もう下ろします! ぶっちゃけ、勉強モードでかしこまるの飽きたよね?これからは、ただただ\\「みんなで楽しく遊ぶ」\\ためだけのコミュニティに進化します! ​教科書もメモ帳もいりません。必要なのは、楽しむ気持ちと、ちょっとした遊び心だけ。 ​🍺 こんなことやるよ! ​ボードゲームナイト: ゆるいゲームから、本気すぎる心理戦まで。 ​飲み会・パブ巡り: とりあえず乾杯。お酒を片手にくだらない話で盛り上がろう! ​自由な交流: 日本語だろうが英語だろうが、通じればOK。言葉の壁をノリで越えていくスタイル。 ​とにかく自由: 「勉強しなきゃ」というプレッシャーは一切なし。 ​イベントごとに「今回はここ行くよ!」って発信していくけど、基本は\\「最高に楽しい時間を過ごすこと」\\が最優先。 ​初対面でも、日本語・英語がペラペラじゃなくても全然大丈夫。ノリ良く楽しめる仲間、大募集中!

Join us for our weekly night of board games in Long Island City at Focal Point! We're a friendly group of people who play games every Thursday. We formerly met at Bierocracy from 2017 through 2021 and a few different venues after that. Now, we’re at a wonderful place called Focal Point! Focal Point is a chill and relaxed bar/brewery with lots of space for gaming. The bar also has an outdoor tent and open outdoor tables for nice weather days. The venue does not serve its own food, but you can bring in any outside food you like and there are multiple good dinner options in the surrounding area! At the meetup, we play a variety of games: worker placement, social deduction, engine builders, party games, area control, and more. If these terms sound completely new to you, no worries - we are always glad to teach. You might just learn something and have a little fun in the process :) Feel free to bring any of your own games but also don’t worry if you don’t. We have plenty of games to go around! Hope to see you soon!!
