Tips & Advice
- Allow about four hours for the one-shot, so schedule the event as a full tabletop session rather than a brief drop-in activity.
- You do not need to bring materials; bring your own dice only if you have a set you want to use or show off.
- Choose a Standard table if you want a format suited to any experience level, including first-time players.
- Pick Advanced Play only if you already know the game mechanics and want a higher level of play.
- Confirm everyone in your group is at least 18, since the event is restricted to adults.
