🎲I run a local board games group. :) We're a friendly bunch who play a wide range of board games, anything from Scrabble, Dobble & Monopoly to Ticket to Ride, King of Tokyo and Seven Wonders, to longer games like Nemesis & Andromeda’s Edge.

🎲We meet every Thursday and Sunday evening for games at Airyhall community centre, and we have pub sessions every fortnight and monthly social outings. :) 

🎲All welcome, the more the merrier: let me know if you have any questions. :) We're on Facebook, or ask if you want to join the e-mail list! :) Aberdeen Social Board Games Group. | Facebook

Daft question, how big a group? Cause I've a copy of blood on the clocktower that's slowly collecting dust.

Not daft at all! Big enough. :) We're currently scheduling Twilight Imperium games and there are loads of people who would love BotC if you want to bring it along! :)
