Hi. I'm new to the site, and new to Pathfinder. I am looking to see if it sparks my interest like the competition doesn't any more. But, my problem so far is that the only games I am seeing that are remotely close to me are all the way in Houston, which is a two hour drive for me.
So, I'm posting in hopes that maybe someone can point me towards someone who has a game or is willing to take on a new to the Pathfinder system type? Please let me know? Oh, I am in Beaumont, Texas. I'd rather avoid the two hour drive if possible. Thank you and hope to hear back soon. I'm also hoping I posted this in the right thread.

Here is a link to the current Venture Captains, Venture Lieutenants and Venture Agents. I hope this helps.
Additionally, there will be an event called Owlcon in February in Houston.

you could try;
Book Stan - comic book store
6055 Phelan Blvd, Beaumont, TX 77706, (409) 833-2324
Comics Kingdom - comic book store
8095 Phelan Blvd # A, Beaumont, TX 77706, (409) 860-4848
Hobby Shop - toys and such
8605 Landis Dr, Beaumont, TX 77707, (409) 866-0330
there's always the option to become a VA and help host/coordinate a game at one of the above locations or have someone who wants to do it contact your nearby Houston VC/VL... You'll need 4 people at a minimum (one can GM).

I actually didn't know about one of those. I might have to look into Hobby Shop. Comics Kingdom doesn't seem much into games if it is the one I'm aware of. Book Stan is, but I will have to double check on that one. Thank you for the information there. Unfortunately, the only one who wants to GM wants to go back to old school. I want to be a player rather than a GM here, mostly because I know I'm not suited for it.

I do not have anyone running pfs games in the Beaumont area. The closest I have is Pasadena and all around Houston.
Hi. And thanks for posting a reply so quickly. I'm currently in contact with the Pasadena coordinator, but would welcome possible contacts on the eastern side of Houston.
Pasadena so far is the closest one to me other than I think Humble, but that is the 2 hour drive one.

So, tried some of the locations given. Comics Kingdom looks to be just a comic and figure store now. Hobby Store is just remote control cars or some such. And Book Stan at least had a board, but the ladies there said they didn't have a pathfinder group that came in and played. Their board had some players willing to get together.
I guess I'm back to square one and LFG again. Also waiting on some word back from at least two I've contacted to know rough days possibly among others.

Thomas M., maybe one of the players would be willing to GM and others can step up a little down the road? Also, it might be good to go to Owlcon if you can and see if anyone from the Beaumont area also shows up. Also, maybe try Meetup?
Owlcown is unfortunately out for me at the moment. I work that weekend, sadly. And yes, there are jobs that work on weekends. I plan on looking at the meetup groups tomorrow to try to get some ideas on which ones might be interested in Pathfinder and such.

I know about weekend work, as I have had to do so in the past.
Meetup is good. Maybe you can see if one of the Venture officers who will be at Owlcon can post a flyer with a link to this thread, expressing an interest in having games in the Beaumont area. You can't attend, but maybe someone will who can help set up some games.

Welcome aboard Thomas - keep looking, there's a shockingly high number of gamers around Texas.
It's actually more the distance than anything. Sadly, the Pasadena bit has fallen through so far. Next weekend I'm stuck at work, and the week of Owlcon I'm stuck as well. The only good news is that it's pretty much week on and week off for me, so I'm hopeful to if nothing else go up to Ettin Games, Asgard Games, or the like to play if need be.

Did you ever find a game in Beaumont?
