Chaosium's RPG Call Of Cthulhu. For players and GMs of all levels from new to experienced . . . we meet near the Emeryville/Oakland border and are always looking for new players.  The game is heavily oriented towards role-play and puzzle solving rather than monster bashing.

Monthly get together for gaming tournaments.

Tabletop role playing and board games in the East Bay. Am feeling around to see if there is interest in having a weekly, monthly, whatever, gaming group in the El Sobrante/Pinole/San Pablo area. I have nothing in mind save enjoying games with like minded people, so what games/systems we play are TBD, as are a venue, times, etc..

Like the South Bay chapter.... "This meetup is here to help provide a social location for those looking for something a little less mainstream. We're a non-judgmental group who loves geeking out just as much as YOU DO!" The South Bay group has had such a great response, we thought there might be enough geeks in the peninsula area to make a sister group. Let's share geeky ideas, go geeky places, and do geeky things together! All manner of geeks are welcome:  singles, couples--even people w …
