Welcome to the Ninth World, and to Numenera.
Join Game Master Anthony for a mini campaign on Thursdays through all of February!
New players are always welcome! We’ll be starting with brand new characters and covering the basics of the game before we begin.
About the Game
Numenera takes place on Earth, well sort of. One billion years have passed and nine eras have come and gone—great cities, alien races, machine dynasties—all have risen to power, made sweeping changes to the planet’s people, its structure and its atmosphere. And all have fallen, leaving the planet a shell for the next to fill in.
It would be error to refer to you as a true human, and yet human is how you think of yourself. A resourceful wanderer in a landscape beyond your comprehension, full of seemingly “magical” devices and technology left behind by past civilizations.
Select who you will be in this world: Are you Glaive, armed to the teeth, a master of weapons? A Nano, someone whose mind and control of themselves can even affect their surroundings? The Wright, a builder, designer, craftsman? An Arkus? Leader of people, architect of councils and towns. A Delve, destined to explore ruins that may have the chance to slay others, but never yourself? Or are you a Jack? Pulling and teasing from the other styles, touching each of their disciplines, but never mastering any yourself.
Read the first moments of the campaign here. We hope you’ll be able to join us!
Join us for a five-week Magic League, beginning Friday, February 1.
Open three packs of Ravnica Allegiance, assemble your League deck, and play as many games as you want against opponents of your choice! You’ll have an opportunity to reinforce your deck every week, and you’ll get prizes just for completing games—win or lose.
How does it work?
When you enter the league, you’ll open three packs of the new set. From the contents of those boosters and basic lands provided by the store, you’ll then build a 30-card (minimum) deck.
From there, play single-game matches. Each player gets one free mulligan.
Play anyone during the course of the league and as many games as you like—there is no limit on total games. Just try not to play the same person twice in a row. League games may be played any time, but must be played at the Board Game Barrister location where you joined the league.
Track your games: We will have League Record sheets available, to be filled out by you and signed by a Barrister after every game played.
This league does not exclude you from playing in Friday Night Magic or other events. If you want to buy into the league and play some games between or after your matches, you’re more than welcome.
This league will continue through Friday, March 1.
Late entrants welcome!
Players in this league need not be present every league Friday in order to participate. If you miss the first week, you can enter in a later week. By the same token, if you miss any week after the first, you may resume your league play where you left off.
Need Reinforcements?
You may purchase one pack per week to add to your card pool and deck. Each new week begins on League Friday.
OR
Lose three games, and you can purchase another pack to add to your deck.
Prizes
- Upon entering the league, you’ll receive three packs of Ravnica Allegiance and a *League Deck Box.
- *Deck boxes are provided for some sets, but not for others.
- Play 5+ games over the course of the league, win or lose, will receive a pack of Board Game Barrister art sleeves.

Modified Hot Wheels, thrilling races, and post-apocalyptic vehicular mayhem! Join us for an afternoon of Gaslands with Barrister Glenn!
New players welcome: This event is intended to introduce new players to the game’s rules and concepts, then start playing!
Description from Osprey Games:
“Shoot, ram, skid and loot your way through the ruins of civilisation with Gaslands, a tabletop wargame of car-on-car destruction in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Players control small fleets of armed vehicles in battles for resources, dominance and survival.
With rules for multiple vehicle types (from motorbikes to big rigs), varied special weapons and accessories (including oil slicks, caltrops and nitro boosters), and a host of options for scenarios, environmental conditions, crew and campaigns, players can tailor games to match their own visions for an anarchic future.”
“He’ll save every one of us!”
It’s time to dash headlong into a truly epic, nostalgic sci-fi universe with the Flash Gordon roleplaying game!
Join Game Master Glenn for a mini campaign on Thursdays through all of March!

Game Description from the Publisher:
On the rogue planet of Mongo, a brutal and sadistic tyrant named Ming the Merciless rules from his royal palace at the heart of Mingo City.
Secretly defying the emperor’s reign of terror are the Freemen, revolutionaries banded together from a number of kingdoms around the globe: the winged hawkmen of Sky City, the ice giants of Naquk, nomadic lion men, the dwarfs of the Magnetic Mountains, and many more!
Become a revolutionary and join the rebellion under the leadership of three aliens from Earth: Dr. Hans Zarkov, Dale Arden, and Flash Gordon, the man whose face emboldens all who wish to live on a world free of Ming!
