South Seattle Suburbs Looking for Players
« on: 17 February 2020, 19:43:50 »
Greetings!

I've been into the battletech universe for years, read all the classic books, played the computer games, but finally getting into tabletop. 

I live in Auburn, WA (Lea Hill neighborhood).  I have turned part of my garage into a game room, where I've been DM'ing a 5e campaign for the last half year.  Me and two of my players are now interested in doing some battletech tabletop.  We've got the armored combat set, and between the three of us, have two Star Colonel level orders from the Kickstarter on their way.

I am open to either playing in evening after work (6pm-10 or 11pm or so) or on weekends (8:30pm-whenever we get too tired).

I used to live about 50 miles south of you, but then I joined the Navy...

I'm in Everett now, but have family in Fed. Way. Once vaccine time comes, I could pay the occasional visit to the group.
Alas poor Photobucket. I knew him Horatio, a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

I wouldn't hold out hope, but I could be persuaded to join in a Megamek-con. In the meantime I'll slowly be pulling stuff including my airbrush out of storage.

My group plays on Sundays in Ballard but until we clear the WOB released Pandemic on our planet were playing Shadowrun via web cam.
So there are other BT groups in the Seattle area.

Of interest, I saw that KS update 158 mentioned Zulus FLGS in Bothell. Independent of that I saw them being discussed in FB and saw their banner at the last in person PAX. This might become my regular store given how close it is to me.

Gotcha. They seem to be the local FLGS and said they do carry the BT line. https://www.zulusgames.com/

I checked out their site, saw zero reference to Battletech on it

The website has the metal dice listed, an email said they do carry the line, and I believe Bryn himself (Randall's mini-me) said that this is their local shop. I'll send an email asking them to clarify and how I can find the BT stuff online.

I popped into Around the Table in Lynnwood yesterday. They have a fair amount of Battletech stuff and sell pre-owned miniatures as well....was tempted to pick up the unseen Phoenix Hawk they had, but the 50 bucks they wanted for it was a bit rich for my blood.

They have tables, serve beer. Looks like a cool place was restrictions are lifted
