Play World of Warcraft & want to venture in the real world with the people you game with? Maryland based WoW discord/Guild is here!

My wife and I started this discord server & guild almost a year ago now, and together we have a formed this local community of friends to enjoy the game with. We've got people of varying interest & skill level. We run keys of all levels, achievement/transmog runs, and we just achieved AOTC together!

We're also holding monthly in-person meet ups, we have a channel dedicated to great places to eat in Maryland, and more in addition to our shared interest of World of Warcraft.

Already have a guild, that's okay, come join the discord anyway!

Find us in discord here: https://discord.gg/Y2d6W6vpMa

This is a list of text-based IF’s (Interactive Fiction) that I and another user from itch.io, xSai or Bladed-Barbwire on Discord, made on itch.io, and I thought I’d share this here with you guys in case anyone is interested. All the credit goes to xSai for coming up with the idea. Also, note that, neither I nor xSai own the rights to any of these IF's; we are just recommending them to people as we believe they deserve more recognition and people might actually end up enjoying them. The list was made on itch.io and so, unfortunately, will have to be accessed from there for anyone wanting to access them from here. The list also had to be split into separate parts as we ran out of characters to use. All the IF’s are completely text-based, a few using some visuals and/or images, but none of them are full Visual Novels. Almost all of the IF's are made in Twine, with a few being made in ChoiceScript, Ren'py, or some other engine. Most of the IF's are free-to-play, some are pay-to-play, and some are free until they're completed and/or a price is decided. Some of the IF's have extra DLC's or bonus side content on their itch.io page or on the author's patreon, which are either free-to-play or pay-to-play. Most of the IF's can be played in a browser (works best in the itch.io app, Chrome, Firefox and some other browsers. Not guaranteed to work in every browser) with some also having a download option, but there are some IF's that only have a download option and no browser one. Most of the IF's can be played on PC and mobile, but some are not compatible for mobile. A lot of the IF's are also unfinished WIP's (Work In Progress); some of them are already completed, close to completion, just started, or may have been discontinued. Some of the links of the IF's also don't work, stop working for a while before working again, or ask for a password to access; perhaps due to being discontinued, shut down for maintenance, or for some other reason. We will continue to keep updating the list as we find more IF’s. We also have a discord server, a subreddit, a tumblr blog, and a cohost page dedicated just for this. If you, or anyone else have any IF’s you want to recommend, feel free to share them on here, the three itch.io topics, the discord server, the subreddit, the tumblr blog, or the cohost page (They have to be text-based IF’s from itch.io and need to have at least some kind of interactivity. IF’s from other sites, Visual Novels, or some other type of game will not be accepted). Or if you just want to talk, or ask me for some suggestions on which IF's to try, then feel free to do that as well. Anyway, thank you for your time, and I hope you have a good day, folks. Cheers!

Silver Canon is doing another Dungeons and Dragons Character Sheet Workshop, as well as a Miniature Painting Class! All happening this weekend!

You get to look forward to learning how to paint affordably, as well as create your first (or a new) Dungeons and Dragons character!

On Friday, come learn (or improve) some new painting skills! This isn't limited to miniatures- you'll learn some fun facts and tricks that make painting, shading, and detailing much easier!

And on Saturday, our "Fallout Friday" and "Sons of Stone" DM Brynnly will be enthusiastically answering questions and guiding you through the process! You may also use this character to play in our ongoing in-store campaigns!

Here's a quick video that was put together, showing off some minis we painted at/during the class, using the same supplies you will! :)
(peep the auto-captions incorrectly spelling the store name... face palm...)

Come learn (or improve) some new painting skills at Silver Canon! This isn't limited to miniatures- you'll learn some fun facts and tricks that make painting, shading, and detailing much easier! (Although we will be using miniatures as a canvas haha)

A miniature of your choice (chosen in person) and any paints/supplies are included when you attend. :)

Jason (the host and owner) even wrote a limerick about it, which you can read on the event page!

Looking to play in a World of Warcraft guild full of Maryland players? Well, you’ve found it! After Tuesday, July 23 it won’t even matter what server you are on. Pre-patch for the War Within drops, which also makes guilds cross realm, so you won’t even have to transfer servers!

Maryland Mayhem, located on Area-52 comprises of players of all skill levels. All are welcome! Started by my wife and I back in December 2023, we hope to create a community of players with the occasional in person meet up.

Yet another weekly Silver Canon D&D Campaign

Our team at the shop and our DM, Brynnly, are stoked to have you! This is our first session zero to discuss more in-depth campaign features, character creation, and getting to know everyone at the table!

We pride ourselves on inclusivity and keep our events open to everyone! If you miss this RSVP, email us or join our Discord and we'd be happy to make extra room for new players joining mid-campaign!

Short Overview:

Welcome to Sons of Stone, a prehistoric Dungeons and Dragons game set in a world where massive dinosaurs roar over vast jungles and the remains of old civilizations murmur forgotten stories. Magic is a fledgling force in this ancient period, and the gods are youthful and unpredictable, influencing the world in unexpected ways.

In Sons of Stone, you are a member of a nascent tribe attempting to forge a new future in the untamed wilderness. Survival is a constant fight with ferocious predators, cruel environment, and opposing tribes. Your adventure will take you through lush forests, across hazardous mountains, and deep into ancient ruins where the gods' secrets and primeval power await discovery.

We are! Join us on our Baltimore World of Warcraft discord server Baltimore Battles "Maryland Mayhem". Sunday April 28th at 12:00pm we will be gearing up in some M+ together to gear up for raiding in the new patch!

My wife and I formed a WoW guild based in Baltimore/Maryland. We’ve now been in Baltimore County for a little over 2 years now. & are hoping to try and build a community here.

We have a Guild called Baltimore Battles on Area 52, and a WoW community set up for those waiting on the cross-realm guilds to launch this summer. A guild that pushes M+, AOTC, Glory Achivs & more. But also a social guild where we trade raiding/dungeon nights, for a movie night or dinner & drinks from time to time.

Discord link https://discord.gg/nPgUvgaTKx

https://baltimorebattles.com/

Hope to see you there!

Every Tuesday at 7PM we here at Silver Canon do board game nights!

You're free to bring games of your own or just come play some of the store copies we have here! (options shown in the gallery of our POSH event page)

Come make friends you haven't even met yet, or bring your own! We have a current table limit of 6 but that's expected to change with time. :)

See you there!

Hi everyone. Been in Baltimore about a year now and looking for new friends who also like to game. I'm mostly into JRPGs, action/adventure, point and click stuff. I used to be into MMORPGs too and just started (again) FFXIV. Mostly play on Switch, PS4 and PC. Based in Mt. Vernon. We should make this a more active subreddit!
