Speaking of train situations, I was in cardiff today, and I was there when 10 policemen armed with MP5s stopped and frisked a guy looking suspicious in a car.... Very cool and exciting....

I've been reading this 'Meet' for a while... (should be in a separate thread)
And it does sound quite interesting.... Currently.... where would this take place?... as long as its not too far from Newcastle Upon Tyne.... i may be able to attend such a thing.

EDIT: Newcastle is a good place... The new GW store in the city is next to a hotel... and is about 5 minutes from a train station... and it has a battle bunker (which is actually the first floor)! making approx. 8 gaming tables..

Not a bad idea, we have a mini tournament - everyone pays 'x' amount to enter and whoever wins gets 'x' amount of stuff
When do you think - December is good for me, and time to get the £19 1st class train tickets lol.

What's going to happen, is it costing more than a landraider to travel, and becuase of the amount of people, it costing the price of a terminators box, with no real prize...

Though Nottingham would be better for sheer number of tables, no idea how much it would cost at either venue. If it were only a few people, you'd not need all of a large place perhaps, and so cost reduced?

Perhaps a different thread is neccessary for such a discussion, with people remembering that there is no specfic saying that such an event will actually occur.

EDIT: made a new thread for this at http://www.40konline.com/index.php/topic,94559.0.html. Obviously will lock it if people disagree with it being made, but did seem like we were drifting off the original point of this thread.

Come to the small town of Halifax. That way, not only to I get to meet you, beat you, and spend no money on fare, you get the sheer pleasure of meeting me.

C'mon, it's win - win.

Oh, and it's an independent stockist, too...

Weston-Super-Mare

Really? I'm in Yatton . . . just down the road from W-S-M and with the same phone dialling code!

I was on the board today looking for a post (or planning on putting my own up) asking for opponenents in my area. I VERY occasionally game at GW Bristol, but often don't have the time. I know there's a games club at Portishead which isnt far away, but my wife works on the night they meet so that's that ruled out!

Anyone here from the Yatton / Cleeve / Congresbury / Nailsea / Backwell area (small towns / villages near Bristol)? I need a games club or opponent I can walk or catch the bus to!

OK, that just made it worth it. Better idea though would be to meet at Salute (OK, mostly for any HORDES previews but it is a decent venue). That way the meet-up costs nothing and we get to wander round a great big con.

Any 1 from Hull, by any chance?? my house mate as an army, we've never fought, cos everytime i ask him for a battle he aint got time...or he makes up another excuse...

Newmarket's closer to Lolworth than Huntingdon I think, about 32 km/20 miles.

I wonder if there's a GW store in Newmarket, or does Bonesinger Bladewind go to Cambridge or even visit nugaming.co.uk or miniature madness (discount online stores) to get his minis?

I live in somerset, there arn't many people playing WH40k around here, so I don't get to play as much as I'd like and there are several armies I've never fought.

Well, PM me if you're ever in this neck of the woods and fancy a game.
