BEST CARD SHOP IN ALL OF CLARKSVILLE.

BEST CARD SHOP IN ALL OF CLARKSVILLE.

They have all your needs from Magic to Yugioh, to 40K and even some house hold games. I go there for the Magic section. All of their employees know what they are talking about. It gets busy on the weekends but they will make time for you still. They even took the time to teach me about a few cards i purchased. So much better than Ricks Cards.

The best place to play games and hang out within at least 260 miles. Randy is the owner, and I consider the man a friend, and I expect most of his customers would say the same.

FLG is not quite a hobby shop, or a game cafe, it's primarily a card shop. However, Randy has a great vision for this place, and it's come together great over the last few years. Frontline was clearly built with the goal of being *the* Magic shop in the state, just to start. He's built it into so much more by embracing the simply amazing gaming community in Clarksville. What he's built is a great place for people to spend the day.

He has tons of demos, events at least once a day, great space, tons of board games, every card game you can imagine, a great place for wargames and a great selection of books, figures and supplies. Then, he offers free WiFi and a half-dozen private play rooms to spend the day with your friends, and he includes the room if you order from his menu of actual hot food that they bring to you. There is really no reason to leave until close. I don't even play Magic, and I was there at least 4 nights a week, because there was always something to play, or someone to talk to.

I recently left the area, and there are probably 5 or more shops near me now, and while some may offer a larger selection, or lower prices, none of them offer the clean, inviting, open space, ease of access, sense of community, real food options, and great hours, as Frontline... I have yet to find a store here in my new town that is open late enough for me to visit after work. How frustrating is that? Most people that play hobby games are adults with jobs -- if you're closing your store at 7pm how are we supposed to sit down and game? Randy understood that, Frontline was open 10pm or later most nights!

I don't know if I'll ever find a game community like Clarksville had, I do know that I'll probably never find a shop as well rounded as Frontline.

Finally, Randy is gamer, but he's still a businessman. What's more, is that as far as I could tell, he was an honest and legitimate one. He knew what he could and could not offer, and was always a straight shooter in regards to running his business, and the value of the product he buys, sells, and trades. Honestly, that means some people might have felt like buying online was a better option, but Randy is devout about not being the 5th or 6th shop to open in close in Clarksville in the past decade. And believe me, I'd been to most of those shops, and most of them felt like they were going under from the day they opened. Not Frontline.

From Frontline Games' panini press to the Frontline Games podcast, the man has a vision for the FLG brand, and you get what you pay for here. It's not just a web shop, it's not just a storefront, it's a great place to spend your time and money, and that is why I proudly wear my Frontline game shirt to GenCon every year, and whenever I pass though Clarksville, I stop in for a pack of Pokemon cards and Frontline Medic from the cafe.

I've been in a lot of game shops and this is one of the best. Well lit, clean, lots of open space, with an excellent selection, and friendly people on both sides of the counter. The war room is well stocked and the community excited about playing.

Frontline is an amazing place to go and have fun. Board games for rent, as well as there are groups that play twice a week that is free to join! Frontline hosts events all the time, and have fun tournaments for Magic the Gathering and more! Seriously check out Frontline if you like gaming, its the best place in Tennessee!

I've been here multiple times. The staff is great. The have a good selection of board games, and usually have trading card game tournaments. There are rooms that you can rent by the hour for private game play. They also have a kitchen for some snacks for purchase.

Great store with friendly staff. I drove all the way from Lewisburg Tn to sell a Charizard V secret rare pokemon card from champions path. The only complaint I have is that I was told that I would get 40percebt of what they where selling the card for. They had 1 in stock selling for $817 and I only got like $220 for my card. I may have done the math wrong, but I believe I was supposed to receive about $100 more for my card.

Super close to home for me which makes it easy to stop in, the parking lot situation does kinda suck and I didn't realize they had a parking lot in the back the first time I went there but yea if you go in the evening it may be full up front just head around back. I dunno it's like being a kid in a candy store and the one time I needed help so far the lady behind the counter was really nice and found what I was looking for.

I ordered a bunch of miniatures online. They arrived on time. One of the minis was defective, missing an arm. I sent an e-mail just to let them know, not expecting anything. I would want to know if I ran a business. I got a response immediately and they shipped me out a replacement, no hassle. Frontline Games is great and I will definitely be ordering from them again!

One of the worst experiences I have had ordering a product online. The product was late, damaged and your employee that I interacted with via email and phone, Randy Peterson, was unprofessional and threatened me over my dissatisfaction. Never again will o order from you guys again and I recommend others to avoid this store at all costs.

Spoke to a very unprofessional store associate by the name of Christan. He was very unhelpful, and lacks knowledge when it comes to any type of competitive gaming. He reminded me of the pokemon metapod because of how useless his skill set is when it comes to anything that involves strategic play. Absolutely useless!Every time I asked a question pertaining to the info I sought. He used the attack harden. He should be fired, and beaten! Terrible customer service. After speaking with him he made Frontline Games look like suckhole.

Great venue to play any game. Awesome staff, friendly, clean, and lots of events. Truly, an awesome community center. Open when all other stores are closed, solely because of the dedication of the owner to providing a center for people to play together.

Came to the store after being gone from the area for 2 years, even though no one but the owner knew me I still had a great time and felt welcomed by other people, which isn't very common at magic shops.

Great board game and card game store! Staff is extremely helpful and pleasant to talk with. Has a large selection of board games and even rooms to play board games in. On top of that they also have a wife variety of TCGs and room to play those as well!

D&D and many other Table-top RPG Books, Dice and FREE side rooms to play in! They also have hot food and drinks you can buy while playing.
Many people are also there doing Magic The Gathering, as well.
Friendly staff will help you with anything you need, even setting up Pre-orders.

I've been going to Frontline Games to play the Pokemon TCG for almost 2 years now and can say without a doubt this is the best card store I have ever been to because of their fair prices, knowledgeable staff, generous prizes, clean and spacious building. They have always had the best intentions for the growing Pokemon community.

I recently decided to get into the game of magic the gathering, and from what I read online the first step into competitive magic is attending a friday night magic. So I searched the gatherer and this store just so happened to be the closest store (it is about a 45 min drive).

When I first walked into the store, the most noticeable thing was how friendly all of the players were. Just from scanning across the room everyone was either deep into a game of magic or getting their decks prepared for the FNM. The layout of the store is pretty straight forward with the tables to play magic being in the exact center of the store. Since I was not sure what to do attending my first FNM, I asked one of the workers behind the counter (I think he was the judge for the event) and told him it was my first FNM. He was very friendly and asked if I had a deck which I did (I was playing a Mono-Green pummler list I found on Tolarian Comunity College) and he told me what time it started and I was able to walk around and watch other games of Magic being played before the tournament began.

When the tournament did begin, the person I played with was friendly even when he was completly destroying me. After each game almost every single player gave me pointers on how I could improve my strategy and my deck. It wasn't until midway through the tournament that I noticed the owner sonce one of the employees asked him a question. The owner (I cannot remember his name) looked just like another one of the players because of the way he was talking with them. Everyone seemed friendly and comfortable around him which is a great quality for a LGS owner to have. After the tournament (I went 1-4) they released prizes. Prize distribution seems very fair, everyone gets a minimum of one pack and you get more based on the wins you get. Overall my initial experience was a plesant one.

Since then I have been back for a total of 4 FNMs and I think I will continue going here for the foreseeable future. Everyone here is super friendly, and even when some of the spikes get angry when they lose, everyone tends to laugh it off. There is a good ratio of age here too, some matches I might play someone who is in tge 10-12 range and other times I will play someone who appears to be in their 40s. The average ages seems to be around the 20s, but the store has a very family friendly feeling to it. The only complaint that I have against the store is how late the FNMs can go. Many times this is because of when it starts and how rounds tend to go overtime or people do not turn in their match slips in a timely fashion. The time issue wouldn't be a problem except for the fact that I live about 45 mins away and I sometimes wont be getting home until 1:30 on some nights.

Overall this is a wonderful LGS and everyone who works their is super friendly. I would (and do) recommend this store to anyone who wants to get into magic.

This place is amazing and unlike any game store you have ever been to. What separates Frontline Games from the rest? It's the amazing staff and regulars who make you feel welcome and are always happy to answer questions or help you figure out a new game system or format. BEST shop I have ever been to.

While I have never played in any tournaments there, I usually just buy single cards. But the place is amazing. They also have tons of board games as well. The only problem I have ever really had was using the store website on my phone. The mobile website is missing some (mainly Yugioh) card packs. So it is a bit hard to see what cards they have unless I use the store computers that are used for ordering in-store

I will say that one of the women (believe she wears glasses.) who works there is awesome. Every time I have gone to Frontline Games, she has been very kind and sweet.

I stopped in to check out the Tuesday night Magic the gathering drafting. It was not meant to be. The selection of Magic cards is very good for singles. Prices are reasonable for a brick and mortar game shop. It looks like they do FNM and Kaijudo events from the signage I saw. Maybe I'll check back with them for the upcoming Journey into Nyx prerelease.The shop is clean, well lit, roomy and doesn't smell of dirty geek. Snacks and a drink cooler well stocked and available.

I do wish they'd get their website and calendar up to date for the shop as it would make it easier to know when events are happening.

Calling all nerds, gamers, geeks, and players! This place has it all it like a haven to hang out and play all kinds of games with an amazing crowd. If you re new to anything their staff and locals are amazing and will do their best to help you out learning. Their food and drinks make this place to spend a day off! The Combat medic sandwich is awesome! Special thanks to Randy for all the years of incredible fun at Frontline! Excelsior!!!! -Marc W

One of if not my favorite store in Clarksville, I've gone in here and spent multiply hundreds of dollars at once just because they have so much good stuff there I've gotten into so many games just because I saw them and I was that looks like fun. The board games here there are too many to choose from but thats a good thing cause you can always come back later for a new game.

If you like board games beyond monopoly, collectible card games, or miniature war games, this is the local spot. They have a little something for the dnd player too.It has plenty of space for card games in front and a separate room for the rules lawyers in back.

So glad I found this place! A real gem of a gaming store - fantastic selection of Magic the Gathering cards and other games. The computerized inventory and multiple computers for customers to use to both browse and create a shopping cart in-store is immensely helpful and convenient. There's a really active gaming community here, with stuff going on in the store every day - makes me wish I was local! I'll definitely be stopping here whenever I'm in Clarksville, which is pretty frequently.
