Atlanta Southside

By Cripple X, in X-Wing Organized Play

Hey folks,

I'm just looking to see if there are any people who play X-Wing on the south side of Atlanta. Specifically in the Fayetteville, Newnan, or Peachtree City areas. I know of a couple of other folks and we've been getting together intermittently over the past few weeks to play. I'm thinking it'd be really fun to get a league started and I'm trying to see if the numbers are there to support it. If you're interested please let me know.

I'm coming from Stone Mountain, and I would be very interested. Where are you thinking of meeting up? Treefort is the only game store in that neck of the woods that I know of. I'm available Wednesday-Saturday most weeks.

The other folks I know go to Heroes in Newnan on most Saturdays. So I figured we'd try there first. I've e-mailed them to try and see if they'd be interested in picking up a Game Night Kit and letting us have a league there. I'll let you know what I hear from them.

I spoke with the manager Tim at Heroes Cards Comics & Games and learned that Heroes has the current Game Night Kit and has preordered the Season 2 GNK as well. Up until now play has been "drop-in and see who's around", but myself and some other players are in the process of trying to establish regular league play there on Saturdays. We've set up an e-mail list for those who are interested. PM me if you want to get on it.

Heroes is a great FLGS. I'm new there, but so far my experience with Heroes has been excellent. The players are great and the staff are both friendly and helpful. So if you're in the area, or even if you're not, and you're looking for a great place to hang out and play some X-Wing, then Heroes is the place to be. Hope to see you there.

If you are not already a member, there is a Facebook group called North Georgia X-wing Minis where I think you should post this information.

Thanks for the advice. I logged on and posted the information, but Facebook is something I only log into maybe twice a year.

Hello,

I was pointed to this thread by Kad. I am moving to Newnan next week and I am looking to start playing X-wing. I bought 2 base sets at the Target in Newnan as they were only $12 and I have been interested for a while. I am a huge board game collector and player as well. How many people do you currently have and are you willing to take a new player that has never played?

We've got a handful of players right now, 4-5, about half of which show up on any given weekend. Of course we'd be glad to have new players. None of us mind introducing new people to the game we all do so fairly regularly.

That's great. This game looks amazing and I can't wait to play. It might be a few weeks as I don't officially move in until next Friday. Any expansion packs you can recommend? As stated above, I have 2 core sets already.

That really depends on what you want to play, though really you can't go wrong with buying at least one of every expansion so that you have access to all the pilot and upgrade cards that are available.

Dropped by Heroes yesterday and put my name and email on the list on the wall and bought the Millennium Falcon pack. Should be good to play in a few weeks.

Is this game still going in Newnan? I recently moved to Carrollton and I need a new x-wing group. Saturday after thnxgiving would be perfect.
