Daniel

Seeking a gaming group

Hi all, I have been playing d&d (pathfinder rules) in St neots for about 8 years now. We have a solid group of players but a few have left over the years so we're now on the prowl for new players. We are coming to the end of our 3rd campaign and will be starting the fourth in a couple of months using d&d 5e rules. We try and rotate the DMs for each campaign but it's not a necessity. (Campaigns can last up to 2 years) We are a friendly group who meet and play in a gaming cabin in st neots every 2 weeks on a Saturday. The group are in there mid 30s, if your looking for a social group and want a regular gaming session then this is ideal. We do ask you to be committed as we all very much look forward to our d&d night, we have a few beers and a few smokes during the night, so if you offended by this then it's probably not for you. Session runs fortnightly, on a Saturday 8 till midnight

6+ years of playing dnd5e DM'd a few times, including a long homebrew campaign. Based in Waterbeach, so can travel to Cambridge and Ely easily. Would prefer to play, but happy to DM as part of a group with 2-3 DM's that rotate. Ideally looking for a longterm table. Discord: jme9522

Great world building and interesting magic system. Complex characters and plot, with lots of political plays, action packed scenes and a romantic subplot.

Seeking a book club

I am 29 and a lover of reading. I particularly love fantasy and romance, but delve into most genres. Would love to meet other readers near me :)

Lonesome Dove
by Larry McMurty | Learn more and buy
I had never read a Western before and wasn't sure it would be for me, but this novel was one of the best I have ever read. The characterisation in particular will stick with me forever, I can't recommend it enough.

Isaac

Seeking a book club

An avid book buyer and occasional book reader, I also enjoy playing the guitar, board games, travelling and long walks (weather providing!) Would love to get to know some new genres and new people, and what better excuse to read than a deadline for a book club.

Isaac recommends:

Small Gods by Terry Pratchett
Small Gods
by Terry Pratchett | Learn more and buy
In Small Gods, Pratchett is at top form delivering biting satire alongside a thrilling narrative, witty comedy and genuine soul in a tale like a fine wine - it seems to only get better with age. As one of his self-contained works, there's few better options to start reading the works of one of the UK's finest authors.

JenHicks1066

Seeking a gaming group

Hi I am a fairly experienced player of Pathfinder and a bit of D&D 5 (I previously had played 3 so a bit sketchy on the newer rules.) My big love is Call of Cthulhu and am looking to find anyone running games where I can finally be an investigator or happy to host as Keeper for anyone looking to try Cthulhu for the first time.

MichaelHopper

Seeking a gaming group

Relatively inexperienced GM, mainly run oneshots for friends in a variety of systems (such as Heart, Blades in the Dark, Ryuutama, and FIST). I have found that I enjoy narrative-focused games, though I started out playing D&D 5e and do take part in a Pathfinder 2E Campaign currently I would very much like to run games like Heart, but don't mind being a player either

Gemma

Seeking a book club

Hi I’m a fellow book lover! I enjoy going for long walks with the dog in the countryside, meeting with friends, meeting for coffee, and of course I love a good book! I am also a big foodie and love a good movie or tv series! I would love to join or start a book club! I am willing to read all sorts. I like romance and fantasy and drama and period novels. I am not such a fan of crime and thriller but never really given it a chance and always willing to try something new!

The OUABH trilogy is my Roman Empire. I think of Jacks and Eva and the magnificent north everyday. What is so great about these books? Honestly I don’t know. All I know is that I connected so much with the characters the world and their adventures.
