Meetup Inventory

This week I chartered three new meetup groups, bringing my total to six. Here is the list. Pass the info onto anyone who may be interested:

Northern VA Walking Meetup:

http://walkers.meetup.com/218

Our scheduled walks and hikes are of the easy to moderate variety and most are also dog and kid friendly. Plan on leisurely adventures with plenty of time to stop and smell the wildflowers or look at the city landmarks. You are encouraged to bring snacks, a journal, a camera, whatever you'd like to carry to make the experience more enjoyable.

About every month or so we hold a Happy Hour for members -if you'd like to join our group but want to get to know a few folks before showing up for a walk we welcome you to join us at next happy hour.

 

Northern VA Supper Club:

http://cooking.meetup.com/343/

The Northern Virginia Supper Club hosts a member dinner each month. One of our members hosts the dinner and prepares the main entree. The rest of the members bring a side to share. Come and share your love for all things culinary and build new friendships with other 20s and 30s and 40s women, men and couples in the NoVA/DC metro area.

 

Northern VA Women in Fellowship:

http://women.meetup.com/157/

The NoVA Christian Women in Fellowship provides the opportunity to meet and fellowship with other Christian women in their 20s and 30s and 40s in the Northern Virginia/DC Metro area.

 

Northern VA Computer Training Meetup:

http://comptutor.meetup.com/10/

Our meetup group offers a forum for members to learn new computer skills and we welcome all levels of computer users.

We don't expect you to know everything (or even the first thing) about computers and we won't ever look down our noses at members who are new to the basics. Instead, we offer a supportive group environment for you to learn how to leverage technology to help you accomplish the things that matter to you most.

 

Manassas Thirtysomethings Meetup:

http://socialnetwork.meetup.com/924/

Here we are, forever out of our 20s. Some of us have children, some of us don't. Some of us are married and homeowners, some of us are single and answer to no one including the mortgage bank.

We are all one generation and we are all living out here in Prince William County or Manassas proper.

Come and socialize with the fellow members! Make new friends and enjoy new experiences.

 

Manassas Book Group:

http://bookclub.meetup.com/1134/

Join us for a monthly book discussion evening with refreshments.

The gathering is held at Barnes and Noble in the Westgate Plaza and the meeting date varies.

Each month, one book is chosen by the discussion group members to be read and discussed at the following month's meeting. A group notebook is kept to record books reviewed, discussion details and book recommendations.

Board Game Review > Middara: Unintentional Malum Act 1

I don't keep my finger on the pulse of all the independent Kickstarter campaigns running at any given time. There's just too much unique content being produced month after month for me to sift through everything. I leave that to those who write previews and reviews for a living (I am an IT Consultant for a living; I write reviews as a hobby because I'm passionate about board gaming). The only way an independent Kickstarter campaign is going to be on my radar is if the designer/publisher reaches out to me to let me know the campaign is running or if it's created a bit of buzz already in the key circles that I frequent. I definitely wasn't closely monitoring Kickstarter campaigns four years ago when the original edition of Middara   was initially funded. It was an adventurous dungeon crawl that promised to be so much more than an ordinary dungeon crawl. With options to run in campaign mode for an ongoing narrative or crawl mode for one off gameplay, it could work as a...

Board Game Review: Anno 1800

Whenever Martin Wallace designs a new game, I am all over it. This is because I absolutely love Brass Birmingham (another MW designed game); in fact Brass Birmingham is my #1 board game of all time. Over the years, his other games I've tried have been pretty good, but not necessarily amazing must-buys. Still, I keep trying each new release of his, searching for that next star performer. That's why I'm excited to report that Anno 1800 is, in fact, a star performer, and an amazing must-buy board game. Anno 1800 was adapted by the publisher (Kosmos) from a Ubisoft video game of the same name. In the board game, players take on the role of industrialists, charged with developing their island economies and exploring other islands. Each player begins the game with a personal industry board with trade & exploration ships, a shipyard, and industrial goods tiles printed on the board. A starting collection of workers (wooden cubes) of various types to produce the goods is a...

Board Game Review: Clank! Legacy: Acquisitions Incorporated (spoiler free)

We’ve had our eye on Clank! Legacy: Acquisitions Incorporated since its debut in 2019 from Renegade Game Studios. In our house, we love legacy games and we own most of the other Clank! editions, so it seemed like a good fit. Boy, was it ever! We finally got the game a couple of weeks ago, and immediately fell for it so hard during the first few minutes of the game that we played it nearly every day with our 11 year old twin sons, Max and Locke. In Clank! Legacy: AI , designed by Andy Clautice and Paul Dennen, players take on the role of employees at a small organization. At the beginning of the legacy campaign, the organization is in the process of applying to become a franchise of Acquisitions Incorporated, a megacorp famed for its for-profit adventuring services. We loved the narrative and appreciated the touches of authenticity,  like the franchise charter agreement.  We’ve played through other legacy campaign games over the past year where the narrative fell flat at tim...
