Just found out I am being posted to the South East Melbourne area. Whats the gaming and store situation like?
Particularly into Napoleonics, WW2, Black Powder, and can be persuaded into some Ancients with Hail Caeser. All in 28mm

Write to Nic at Eureka Miniatures who is in Melbourne. There is a strong club in Altona.

Do you mean the south east of Melbourne itself, or the South Eastern Suburbs?

Stores – Eureka Miniatures.

Clubs – League of Ancients (suburb of Windsor) and Nunawading Wargames Association (more Eastern than South Eastern).

Dandenong has a roleplaying/wargames club, but I don't know much about them.

Sorry guys, Frankston area. But I am prepared to travel for good gaming.

Frankston – there is (or was) a store that allowed people to play games, but from memory if you don't play a game they sell, you can't play there.

At least that is what they told me.

I am in the City of Frankston, in the suburb of Langwarrin, so me might be able to arrange a game.

Going by your forum name and your initial remarks, I gather you are in the services?

Provost19 May 2013 11:39 p.m. PST

Correct Shelldrake. Can I assume likewise with your forum name?

shelldrake19 May 2013 11:47 p.m. PST

Yep.
