Welcome to one of the oldest board game communities on the Internet. That may sound like hyperbole but it really is true.
We are really happy to have you here. Unfortunately, being online we can't bond with you over a game so you'd know right away how happy we are to meet you. For now, you'll just have to take our word for it.
This site has always thrived on lively discussion and spirited but civil debate. We hope that newcomers here will find a welcoming atmosphere where game enthusiasts of all levels of experience and commitment will have something to add to the conversation. You never need to prove your “gamer cred” here. Whether you have been playing board games for a few months or a few decades; whether you have a huge collection or a small one; whether you have been a member here for years or just joined today – your opinion is valued here.
We know that it can be intimidating to jump into a new community and want to assure you that this is NOT the kind of forum where people will tell you that you posted something in the wrong place, or that you should have found an existing thread on the topic, or that you shouldn’t have resurrected an old thread.
So if you find a thread or an article discussion that interests you, whether it is old or new, feel free to jump in. Want to discuss a specific game or board gaming related topic just start a new topic. If you don’t know which forum to put it in, just make your best guess (we really don’t care all that much. It’s easy enough for a moderator to move it or merge it, if necessary).
A good place to get started is by introducing yourself in the “New Members Introduce Yourself” thread (below) or by telling us what you have been playing in the “What BOARD GAME(s) have you been playing?" thread ( therewillbe.games/forum/35-mos-eisley-ca...ave-you-been-playing ).
Have fun, and we look forward to hearing from you.

New Members Introduce Yourself

I would be interested in a group, though I probably couldn't meet weekly. I probably could meet monthly for things.
I don't actually have a facebook account, so I haven't joined any group there. If there is a good group though, I could ask my wife to join it.
As far as Vassal, I have looked into it, but I prefer face to face gaming or actual computer games, and rarely a blend of the two (exceptions for game nights on Tabletop Simulator with old, old friends).
I have done some wargaming, and I have enjoyed most of what I have tried. I love Napoleon's Triumph, enjoy the old school Afrika Korps, and I like Hammer of the Scots.

Ah, I see you are a man of culture as wellGoTeamVenture wrote: I probably like modern Euro games more than most people who post here. I also like dudes on a map games, dungeon crawlers, 4X games, civ games, CDGs, Martin Wallace games, Knizia/Kramer German-style games, and Android: Netrunner.
