Hey,

So I'm looking for some help.  For years I've played RPGs on PCs and consoles (FFVIII & a LOT of BioWare) and now I want to try some tabletop games.  Where would be a good place in Manhattan to go to start a game and play with people willing to help a complete novice out?  I'll only be in the city on weekends.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Well, the Complete Strategest gaming store has game tables in the basement, I think they are closed Sunday. But even still they are a great place to buy all kinds of game stuff.

And then just down the street to the west, is the amazing Jim Hanelys Universe, and I think they have started hosting games in their basement. One of the best comic book shops around.

While you are there, you should pick up a copy of an amazing mini comic called Kool Aid Gets Fired!

Other then that, try Meetup.com to find local DnD players. I run a weekly figure drawing group using that site, and it's very friendly and useful. The groups on there are legit so no need to worry about it being scammy or creepy.
