Continuing our spotlight series on the Friendly Local (War)Game Stores around the US & Canada
Noble Knight Games is located in Fitchburg, WI
In our key ratings for the FLGS directory, Noble Knight Games scores
- 6 – Wargame Friendliness
- 7 – Wargame Inventory On-Hand
(If we were truly grading on our 1-7 descriptors below, this would be much lower because of all the other inventory they carry; however their overall mass inventory of wargames compared to the rest of the planet kicks this up to a 7) - 5 – Wargaming Event Frequency
This is a 1-7 scale, where higher numbers are better; see bottom of article for details
And yes, they do offer online ordering; you can find them at their homepage –– it’s kind of their schtick
What makes this store awesome?
Biggest / most comprehensive selection of used wargames on the planet, and a ton of new stuff, too.
Plus a fantastic customer staff, outstanding in-store experience, and they buy a ton of stuff you want to bring them
Noble Knight Games has tabletop RPGs as their main product inventory, and also carry pretty much anything else you can think of. . . seriously. Just watch the report that Brant posts from their trip up there. On the shelves, it’s new & used games, but they specialize in hard-to-find and out-of-print stuff.
For in-store gaming, you’ve got a pretty big table selection
Snacks for sale? a couple of vending machines
Take a look at the store!
