Magic: the Gathering in Medford

We've got a small but dedicated group, so we're continuing to do this on a regular basis now! Thanks Veronica for making this happen!

It doesn't matter if you are an expert planeswalker, or don't know anything about Magic -- you can come to play or learn this amazing strategy game. There are will be two tables - one for beginners who want to learn how to play, and experienced players who just want to duel biggrin All decks of all types are welcome for this "casual play" event.



Created by a mathematics professor and game designer in the early 90's, Magic: The Gathering has been one of the most successful trading card games in recent history. Although the game's fantasy motif is marketed to younger players, its strategic gameplay and card artwork has appealed to players of all ages. Don't let the theme or marketing fool you: this is truly "chess with cards". Any player who likes critical thinking will enjoy this game.

This location is easily accessible from Rt. 16, Rt. 28 and Rt. 93, and is walking distance from the Wellington Orange Line subway stop, near the new Station Landing apartment complex. There is free parking in the garage underneath the restaurant, and free parking all around the building.

If you are driving, be aware that Station Landing is at the intersection of Rt. 16 and Rt. 28, and you can enter the Station Landing complex from the north-bound side of Rt. 28, or the east-bound side of Rt. 16. It is across the street from Kappy's. There are a number of stores in the Station Landing complex -- look for Starbucks or Qdoba. Not Your Average Joe's is right next to these shops.

So don't just sit at home -- come join the fun!

    Very fun! I'll make a deck of strictly M10 and Zendikar for next time. My angels may have been a tad overpowering. :)

    I never thought that I'd be meeting so many causal Magic players. Next time I promise to do more than play lands and die. ;)
