Come play tabletop RPGs at Wizard's Chest!

We are back to the two-block format! Come early at 3pm for the first game, then we'll hang for an hour (and maybe get food across the street) before the 7pm game block. Note: we will have to move tables. Block one is in the game rooms, block two is out in the store like the last two times.

IMPORTANT: After 7pm the store closes and we are locked in. We can let people in the back door, but I recommend arriving by 6:30 for the 2nd game block just in case and exchanging number with someone so they can let you in if you need to step out.

WHAT IS OSR/NuSR?
OSR stands for Old School Renaissance (or sometimes Revival). Check out this video from Questing Beast(

). NuSR is a term often applied to games like Mörk Borg/Pirate Borg, Mothership, Knave, Cairn, and other games that have a new school design aesthetic, and are typically rules-light and focus on "rulings over rules", but aren't exactly D&D clones. Many of Free League Publishing's games aren't technically OSR games as they aren't often based on old school D&D, but the high quality design and alternate game style game have made fans out of many of us.

ABOUT LIMITHRON
I'm Luke Stratton, and I made Pirate Borg, a hack of Mörk Borg. It's forthcoming from Free League Publishing, and the game has already shipped to Kickstarter backers and people that preordered.

I started this group to meet local OSR-style players and get some games going. I often host playtest games for my next book, The Dark Caribbean.
