Surely this is just another Regional thread...

But anyway, Newcastle GW + Leeds GW. Just don't ask me for a game, all my stuff is in Leeds.

I get everything and only play at an independant retailler in Marlboro NJ.  My wife has a very close relationship with the owner...


Yeah, the owner's me by the way.

I live FAR west of the States, almost as far as I can get. I already know the one person on this site that lives in my area...because I introduced him here (Cripple).

It's Alderwood GW.

The nearest one is in the Mall of Georgia, but I haven't been to it. Support your LGS instead.

My nearest is Cambridge, lots of nice guys there actually but because I live so far away I can never get there to battle or paint with other gamers... its sad, I want a local GW I hate missing out on the community aspect of this game and just pop in to random GWs while im near one just to pick up some models... argh

The one in Exeter is pretty good, and although I rarely go in the manager always recognises me and comes over to chat. Nice, as he probably only makes around £20 a year out of me.

I live in the East Coast, and the GW i go to is in Gien Burnie, about 40 mintues away from where i live. But it is the HQ for GW over here so it's nice to have a big building with plenty of people, and LOTS of tables, great terrain.

It's pretty funny how I've been more to the 2 furthest gws and not going to the one near my house.
I go to pretty much all GWs in this country.
GW brussels(30mins away)
GW liege (1hour30min away)
GW namur (1 hour30min away)

Now I also have a local store, who has even more stuff than any gw, like apoc boxes, army boxes...old models, old codexes...and it's only 20 min away.XD

I also have ebay, but that usually takes a week or 2 to arrive : (
The Dark Moon Kabal ,possibly the biggest DE army ever!
over 20k and awesome, what more do you need to click? (last updated the 02/03/2012)

Nothing better than killing a thousand slaves to wake up in the morning.

Hymirl, does that one at cribbs actually have room for gaming tables? I've only ever popped in for paint - it seems.....cosy.

Newcastle Gw for me, Though its Newcastle, Australia.

I only pop in for the odd paint as the independant in wallsend is superior in every way, shape and form. Let me here you say 17 tables compared to 2.

However, everything about Tarrin is unfair and should be sanctioned with extreme prejudice.

The Globals have issued a 2:1 ruling that yes, yes everything about Tarrin is indeed unfair. We have also been sullied merely by contemplating this.

GW Lincoln: nice place, its a little small, its only got two tables, I think.

GW Truro: same again, but slightly larger.

Lastly, GW Nottingham: The Friar Road one, not WW.
