February 2: 5th Edition D&D Campaign at Pawns and Pints !

Saturday, February 2, 2019 at 11:00:00 AM Pawns and Pints (new location) 613 Walnut Street, Kansas City, MO

PLEASE NOTE THE NEW LOCATION ! Pawns & Pints has now moved to 613 Walnut Street ! Pawn & Pint is a bar, so legally requires customers to show ID to prove they're over 21 or are accompanied by a Parent/Guardian.

Jon Steel is taking a break from DM'ing currently ! We're now adventuring in DM Aarons' 5e interpretation of the classic "Tegel Manor". All players are welcome - HOWEVER, new players will start at Level 1. Please also note that Tegel Manor is a "dark subject" adventure - and may not be suitable for children.

Join us in our weekly 5th Edition D&D Campaign !

What is a "game store" campaign you may ask ? This is a less serious option than a "long term" campaign - players are expected to come and go between weeks as needed - hence there is a large number of "pre-generated" characters available. If you are regularly playing (and have shown at least a commitment to show regularly) - then you may create your own character using our house-rules.

We run every week (unless specifically stated) and start from 11am and play until around 4.30pm. We usually break for 30 minute for lunch.

There are multiple tables available - currently we have approximately 4 tables in play, and all have open-play availability.

If you are new to the hobby - this is an ideal game for you. We are very welcoming and have different players of all types of experience. We rarely, if ever, turn players away - HOWEVER, you DO need to be at the location at least 30 minutes prior to start - as we need to find you a character and help you understand the house rules ! I'm usually at our location around 10am or so, and this is usually the ONLY reason players might not be able to play !!

We encourage support of our hosting game-store by offering one free re-roll if you spend at least $5 on the day at the game store. Snacks/drinks are included in that. If you've never played 5th Edition - but are used to 1st/2nd/3rd Edition - its exactly like 1st edition ! Very simple character sheets - the rules are incredibly easy to pick up ! Its really, really easy for new players to also pick up in one session - this is definitely the game for everyone !

I do reserve the right to "cap" the table size if we get too large. We have had table-sizes of up to 10-12 players, but any larger and we become too rowdy !

$5 pay-to-play fee is waived for Pawns & Pints members as usual

Cross-posting from another group for Jon Steel. =) Original event is here:
https://www.meetup.com/dnd-1121/events/xlcgmpyxpbgc/

Join us in a regular 5th Edition D&D Campaign! After much thought, I decided not to follow the Adventurers League adventures for my campaign - instead, I have converted my original 1st Edition campaign to 5th Edition, and will be running this as a "game store" campaign.

What is a "game store" campaign you may ask ? This will be less serious than a "long term" campaign - players are expected to come and go between weeks as needed. Players own their characters - but the characters will be pre-generated prior to the adventure. Hopefully this all equates to "more fun" !

This session will be weekly (unless specifically stated) - and will last 5 hours each week (finishing at 4pm). Please ensure that you support our hosting game-store by purchasing snacks/drinks/game materials if possible at the game store - the space is free after all !

If you've never played 5th Edition - but are used to 1st/2nd/3rd Edition - its exactly like 1st edition ! Very simple character sheets - the rules are incredibly easy to pick up ! Its really, really easy for new players to also pick up in one session - this is definitely the game for everyone !

I'm going to reserve the right to "cap" the table size if we get too large. I can handle up to 10-12 players, but any larger and we become too rowdy ! More details will be forthcoming on table size.

January 31: Crimson. 5e Homebrew Campaign

Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 6:00:00 PM Level One Gameshop 400 Grand Blvd #420, Kansas City, mo

***TABLE IS FULL, NOT ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS AT THIS TIME***

Welcome to Crimson:

Crimson is a post-apocalyptic D&D setting I have created for 5e. It will have some similar elements to Dark Sun, but it will not specifically play off of DS and all the mechanics and intangibles of DS. There is magic in the world, but it is not fairly common outside of the 3 cities and some of the more known encampments.

The world was once lavish with color, various greens throughout the fields and rolling hills in the backdrop, a blue sky that resembled an ocean with the occasional waves of clouds. The sun, a beacon of light and source of climate stability above. The very things many take for granted were always there and never consistently thought of. Farms flourished, animals plump with meat, fruits ripe for the picking and an abundance of fresh water and fish for humans, humanoids and all animals and beasts alike to eat until their hearts and stomachs were content.

Skirmishes were common throughout the lands as many others would feel throughout history. The Dwarves and their gadgets pushing the evolution of their time in comparison to the elves who seemed more primitive and regarded nature as a sentient being...a God if you will. Humanoids were in many shapes and sizes and in most instances stayed tucked away in their own nooks of the world. Defend when threatened, attack when greedy, align when needed.

The kingdom was controlled by the Berkhardt family. King Berkhardt, a widower who never remarried after his beloved passed away while giving birth to their son Prince Berkhardt. It has been rumored that he sucked the life force out of her and the 3 mid-wives who tried to help raise him from the milk of their breasts. 4 women deceased, 1 child alive. He was always a pleasant Prince. Gave to the people selflessly, always supported his father the King and went into numerous battles for the kingdom. The rumors were just fables created to craft a lore of fear and respect as many nobles have.

What seems to be a typical world became all but that. A rumble that resembled the hooves of all horses in the nation battering the ground echoed throughout the world. The soil beneath the feet almost boiled, popping and cracking in anger. Lakes and rivers turned to a gaseous steam, creating a sauna of heat that killed livestock, humans and humanoids effortlessly with pause or reservations to any of its victims. Bursts of crimson colors illuminated the sky. Lava geysers bursting creating molten rivers of slow rolling fire and ember trails. Meteoric rocks battered the lands, crushing civilizations, turning once notable trade centers to ruins. Greens turned to reddish brown wastelands, life turned to decay, the scorch became constant. The deafening screams of anything living faded, the silence thereafter was even louder as it carved out madness in the minds of rest who existed. The surface covered in soot, bodies that were once whole were heaped into a pile of ash as anyone and everyone who could burrowed underground, grasping and clinging to life support.

Is this the age of extinction upon them?

January 31: Thursday Boardgame Night, At Feed Supply

Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 5:00:00 PM Feed Supply Market & Deli 504 NE 70th Street, Gladstone, mo

Good Thursday! We have a public place again to play board games at! Please bring your favorite board games, and your favorite people to play some games.

This is being hosted by a local business owner at their eatery, so the only restriction is please don't bring food or drink, as they will sell food to us.

Also note the hours are 5 PM to 10 PM. So please keep the hours in mind when planning your board games!

Finally the owner is keeping her place open two hours longer than normal just for us! In doing so she has asked our group to pay a small fee to play here on Thursdays. That fee is $75 for the group, we are asking for those that are able to please be willing to give $5 to a group fund to pay this fee. We'll be keeping a communal pot, as our numbers can fluctuate between 30 people to sometimes just 12 on these Thursdays.

I'm excited to see all of you again, and to play some board games!

January 30: One Shot RPGs

Wednesday, January 30, 2019 at 6:00:00 PM Level One Game Shop 400 Grand Blvd #420, Kansas City, MO

If you've never played an RPG, basically we let our inner kids out and we goof around for 3 hours. Each week, we run a new game taken from DriveThru RPG or Powered by the Apocalypse. There are usually pre generated character sheets on offer, but we can help you setup yourself or your ideal hero/villain with abilities and gear.

Some recent adventures were End of the World, Honey Heist, Call of Cthulhu, and World Wide Wrestling. The goals and scenarios change, but we always aim for just enough crazy to keep each other laughing.

Bringing a dice set with you is helpful, but not necessary. You can use ours.

As of 1/18/19, we are going to dive into a D&D 5e homebrew, building up the campaign for a few weeks. After that, I think the sessions will filter in the one shot RPGs with the D&D play.

The homebrew will involve traveling all of the lands and planes of the D&D universe. There is a soft cap of 6 players on those sessions.

January 31: Crimson. 5e Homebrew Campaign

Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 6:00:00 PM Level One Gameshop 400 Grand Blvd #420, Kansas City, mo

***TABLE IS FULL, NOT ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS AT THIS TIME***

Welcome to Crimson:

Crimson is a post-apocalyptic D&D setting I have created for 5e. It will have some similar elements to Dark Sun, but it will not specifically play off of DS and all the mechanics and intangibles of DS. There is magic in the world, but it is not fairly common outside of the 3 cities and some of the more known encampments.

The world was once lavish with color, various greens throughout the fields and rolling hills in the backdrop, a blue sky that resembled an ocean with the occasional waves of clouds. The sun, a beacon of light and source of climate stability above. The very things many take for granted were always there and never consistently thought of. Farms flourished, animals plump with meat, fruits ripe for the picking and an abundance of fresh water and fish for humans, humanoids and all animals and beasts alike to eat until their hearts and stomachs were content.

Skirmishes were common throughout the lands as many others would feel throughout history. The Dwarves and their gadgets pushing the evolution of their time in comparison to the elves who seemed more primitive and regarded nature as a sentient being...a God if you will. Humanoids were in many shapes and sizes and in most instances stayed tucked away in their own nooks of the world. Defend when threatened, attack when greedy, align when needed.

The kingdom was controlled by the Berkhardt family. King Berkhardt, a widower who never remarried after his beloved passed away while giving birth to their son Prince Berkhardt. It has been rumored that he sucked the life force out of her and the 3 mid-wives who tried to help raise him from the milk of their breasts. 4 women deceased, 1 child alive. He was always a pleasant Prince. Gave to the people selflessly, always supported his father the King and went into numerous battles for the kingdom. The rumors were just fables created to craft a lore of fear and respect as many nobles have.

What seems to be a typical world became all but that. A rumble that resembled the hooves of all horses in the nation battering the ground echoed throughout the world. The soil beneath the feet almost boiled, popping and cracking in anger. Lakes and rivers turned to a gaseous steam, creating a sauna of heat that killed livestock, humans and humanoids effortlessly with pause or reservations to any of its victims. Bursts of crimson colors illuminated the sky. Lava geysers bursting creating molten rivers of slow rolling fire and ember trails. Meteoric rocks battered the lands, crushing civilizations, turning once notable trade centers to ruins. Greens turned to reddish brown wastelands, life turned to decay, the scorch became constant. The deafening screams of anything living faded, the silence thereafter was even louder as it carved out madness in the minds of rest who existed. The surface covered in soot, bodies that were once whole were heaped into a pile of ash as anyone and everyone who could burrowed underground, grasping and clinging to life support.

Is this the age of extinction upon them?

January 30: One Shot RPGs

Wednesday, January 30, 2019 at 6:00:00 PM Level One Game Shop 400 Grand Blvd #420, Kansas City, MO

If you've never played an RPG, basically we let our inner kids out and we goof around for 3 hours. Each week, we run a new game taken from DriveThru RPG or Powered by the Apocalypse. There are usually pre generated character sheets on offer, but we can help you setup yourself or your ideal hero/villain with abilities and gear.

Some recent adventures were End of the World, Honey Heist, Call of Cthulhu, and World Wide Wrestling. The goals and scenarios change, but we always aim for just enough crazy to keep each other laughing.

Bringing a dice set with you is helpful, but not necessary. You can use ours.

As of 1/18/19, we are going to dive into a D&D 5e homebrew, building up the campaign for a few weeks. After that, I think the sessions will filter in the one shot RPGs with the D&D play.

The homebrew will involve traveling all of the lands and planes of the D&D universe. There is a soft cap of 6 players on those sessions.

January 26: 5th Edition D&D Campaign at Pawns and Pints !

Saturday, January 26, 2019 at 11:00:00 AM Pawns and Pints (new location) 613 Walnut Street, Kansas City, MO

PLEASE NOTE THE NEW LOCATION ! Pawns & Pints has now moved to 613 Walnut Street ! Pawn & Pint is a bar, so legally requires customers to show ID to prove they're over 21 or are accompanied by a Parent/Guardian.

Jon Steel is taking a break from DM'ing currently ! We're now adventuring in DM Aarons' 5e interpretation of the classic "Tegel Manor". All players are welcome - HOWEVER, new players will start at Level 1. Please also note that Tegel Manor is a "dark subject" adventure - and may not be suitable for children.

Join us in our weekly 5th Edition D&D Campaign !

What is a "game store" campaign you may ask ? This is a less serious option than a "long term" campaign - players are expected to come and go between weeks as needed - hence there is a large number of "pre-generated" characters available. If you are regularly playing (and have shown at least a commitment to show regularly) - then you may create your own character using our house-rules.

We run every week (unless specifically stated) and start from 11am and play until around 4.30pm. We usually break for 30 minute for lunch.

There are multiple tables available - currently we have approximately 4 tables in play, and all have open-play availability.

If you are new to the hobby - this is an ideal game for you. We are very welcoming and have different players of all types of experience. We rarely, if ever, turn players away - HOWEVER, you DO need to be at the location at least 30 minutes prior to start - as we need to find you a character and help you understand the house rules ! I'm usually at our location around 10am or so, and this is usually the ONLY reason players might not be able to play !!

We encourage support of our hosting game-store by offering one free re-roll if you spend at least $5 on the day at the game store. Snacks/drinks are included in that. If you've never played 5th Edition - but are used to 1st/2nd/3rd Edition - its exactly like 1st edition ! Very simple character sheets - the rules are incredibly easy to pick up ! Its really, really easy for new players to also pick up in one session - this is definitely the game for everyone !

I do reserve the right to "cap" the table size if we get too large. We have had table-sizes of up to 10-12 players, but any larger and we become too rowdy !

$5 pay-to-play fee is waived for Pawns & Pints members as usual
