D&D and Astronomy RTR 2018

[Star_Trails]

I'll be bringing a small telescope and some stuff for Dungeons and Dragons and Firefly tabletop games. If anyone wants to join me for some stargazing or dice slinging, let me know!

I can teach you all the things if you want to learn either activity.

 

[brendanross]

I'm definitely interested in learning D&D! Never tried it, but I've always wanted to. I haven't had my telescope set up in forever, so count me in for stargazing too.

What area are you in? I'm rolling in late Friday night, but maybe Saturday night I could check out your telescope? I've done a fair amount of star gazing (naked eye) recently, and have been getting the itch for a better view!

i used to play d&d in my grandmothers cabin where she lived. it was so long ago but the cabin really made the same take on a great atmosphere. no water, no electricity, etc. not a huge cabin one large king or queen sized bed in the downstairs and a sleeping loft up (no cushions for the loft). we'd get about 4-6 in there wouldn't be tight but not a huge amount of room either. would use oil lamps for lighting just kinda cast a nice combo of light and shadows to enhance the game. a small word burning stove which we used during the winter, first time we used it i melted my dice. this was the 2nd edition we played which is also the edition i have tons of books for.

oh i so miss playing d&d, recently bought a 3d printing in the hopes of printing out stuff for it but atlas so far thast not come to pass too much stuff in the way.

My brother plays D&D every Sunday. I'd be down to hang out and stargaze etc. I'm in the music section tonight. Might move around throughout the event. Who knows.

 

[Star_Trails]

I'm down the music section (maroon road) near the mindfulness camp in a navy Jeep Liberty.

 

[Star_Trails]

Jk... maroon road has been blocked off. You can still get to me via the normal music road.

 

[velojym]

Oh, man.... just when I'd already been sad about missing this one... GAH!!!!

For a guy who works in I.T., I sure miss the ol' pencil and dice. It's all about imagination, rather than pixelation.

Had the scope out in music-side mindfulness camp. Was viewing Andromeda, Albireo, Perseus Double Cluster, and Orion Nebula. Tonight I'm going for Crab Nebula, Veil Nebula, M37, and M15.

Thanks for sharing the enhanced view. I really enjoyed it.

The directions to the Mindfulness Camp are horrible. I've looked three times. Twice in a white F-150 (ended up deep in the gravel beyond any campsites) and again on foot this morning. The whole right, left, right thing doesn't work on three-way forks. Can anyone give directions using notable vehicles? I'm not familiar with celebrity YouTubers. Or would it be possible to post pictures? There's no shortage of older class C's.
