Also, if anyone knows and LGS's that do DDM tourneys or pre-releases, post them here.
I'm about an hour from CT in NY. How far are you from Danbury? | |

| About 30 minutes away from Danbury, give or take because of time of day and/or traffic.
Wouldn't mind going to Danbury once in a while for some DDM goodness. [:D] I'm in Newtown every few weeks. Newtown is very close to Danbury. | |

| | So we just need to find a place in that area for some gaming fun. I'll have to take a look next time I go to the mall up there. They used to have a WotC store in that mall. | |

And perhaps a couple more players. I might be able to bring one other player. | |

| That sounds like a plan. I need to hit up some of the local stores to find some new players. It would also be nice to have some local tounaments.
We should try to find a place to play out that way. | |

| Well, if you can stand my massive sucking. I played my first game in about eight months the other day and got my ass handed to me.
Anyway, this sounds good. Maybe get some local tourneys going? I like it. | |

| I stopped by the Citadel Games in Groton CT over the weekend. Pat, the owner, is a great guy, and he encourages all kinds of play in his gaming space.
That said, he's not a DCI or RPGA kind of guy, so someone local would need to get things organized.
He was sold out of Mini's, and seemed to indicate that they were selling pretty well, but most for RPG use. That is what Lynchpt saw over in rehoboth, MA, and now they ahve 6-10 players every week for DDM.

| Well, that gives us four or five in the "general" area.
Maybe at some point we can get something together. | |

| So Ghendar, CT is not a gaming wasteland. You have a few starting up now.
Let me know when something is set up and I'll see if I can make it out. My wife would love to spend the day shopping in Dandury so I could play... [)] She has her addictions and I have mine! [:)] | |

Kinda, but most people responding are still from outside CT. Hmmm, wonder if there's any game stores in Danbury. I will check. | |

| | Is that Wizards of the Coast store still open in the Danbury Mall? or did it die along with all the gamekeepers around here too? | |

| I checked the mall web site and didn't see anything that looked like a game store.
I also have confirmation that there is NO game stores in the Danbury area, other than this one. Check the link
www.cavecomics.com
It's east of Danbury right off I-84 in a town called Newtown.

| I grew up just outside of Danbury. Cave Comics was my D&D & comic book resource when I lived there - I don't know what I would have done without it! I'm in Cambridge, MA, now, but I still stop in there from time to time when I'm down there visiting family. (I picked up two Angelfire boosters there with an Efreeti and an Ogre Mage in August!) :) I don't know if Pat still owns/runs the place, but he's a terrific guy. The last time I was there, there was a table set up with some people playing Warhammer or something similar, I didn't look too closely. I'd definitely recommend that anyone who lives in the area or close enough to stop by there regularly get in touch with Cave Comics re: setting up regular DDM games there. My brother lives about 10 minutes away and doesn't get to play as often as he'd like. I'm not sure if I could persuade him to join in any regular nights that might take place there. He has tons of trade bait to offer up, too, especially some harder to find Harbinger pieces (two extra DCoLs, if memory serves)...
But anyways, to sum up: Cave Comics = good. | |

Well said. Pat does indeed still own the place. | |
