The Rusty Scabbard had an amazing selection of tabletop games, including board games, card games, RPGs and war games you supplement with miniatures. If you are also interested in exploring your artistic side, they carried plenty of additional supplies, ranging from paint starter kits to individual brushes. While we were browsing, there were two live games going on. A lot of resources and knowledge to be found within these walls!

Pretty cool store. Wide range of tabletop games including marvel crisis protocol. Only other shop is in Louisville. Lots of choices for other tabletop games as well. Definitely worth a visit.

I've been going to this store since 1986 when I was 16 yrs old. It's the same store it ever was and it's glorious. If you haven't been since back in the day, go on in and pick up a set of dice... you know you want to. If you're new to gaming, it will quickly become a favorite.
