Hey everyone. I've been a long time TMPer and looking for minature gamers to play with. I live in Windsor, WI, just outside of Madison, WI (Northeast side, west of Sun Prairie). I'm looking for Miniature Gamers who would like to get together. I have a large man cave to play in with lots of minis. I play just about anything but have forces for the following:

-Bolt Action (German, British and US armies)
-Check Your Six WWII and Jet Age (Battle of Britain British and German forces, plus a fair bit of Pacific US and Japanese and a lot of 1/300 US and British Bombers, plus a ton of 1/600 Cold War and Modern Jets)
-Song of Blades and Darkness (Mainly I use my Warhammer Stuff and D&D stuff for this)
-Lion/Dragon Rampant (Mainly Warhammer, but have unpainted Medievals that I'm getting slowly to)
-Warhammer 40K (Tau, Imperial Guard, Space Marine and Necron armies)
-Warhammer (Tomb Kings, Imperial and Wood Elf Armies + parts of a Dwarf and Skaven army)
-X-Wing (Lots of Imperial and Rebel fighters and some big ships)
-Star Wars Armada (A Decent size Imperial and Rebel fleet)
-ACTA Star Fleet (Klingon, Romulan and Federation Ships)
-Naval Thunder (1/6000 WWI and Russo Japanese War and 1/1800 WWII fleets of many nations)
-Battle Tech/Alpha Strike (Lots of Mechs)
-Wings of Glory (Nearly every plane released thus far minus the big new bombers and a few of the alt-paints)
-Dust (A bunch of Allied, SSU and German forces)
-Sails of Glory (lots of ships, but you'll have to teach me, I haven't gotten around to it yet)
-Plus bits and bobs and odds and ends of a lot more (Full Thrust Fleets, Space Hulk, Pike and Shotte, and more).
-I also make my own rules and would like folks to try them out.

I'm pretty much up to play anything and will freely spread my armies for folks to play at my place and will go on the road within a reasonable distance of my place. (I used to play at Last Square, but since he moved far west of town, it's a bit of a long drive to get there regularly).

I have several board game and rpg friends locally, but none are minis gamers and I need a regular group to play with. All my old minis friends in the area moved away.

Contact me if interested!

Oops,sorry, I got distracted and missed that!

Yeah. The Last Square moved to his family home west of town. They still have a brick and mortar store as I just visited it this summer. Beautiful location but it is "out there"!

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP28 Oct 2016 9:52 a.m. PST

I get there when I can, but it's over an hour's drive one way from my house, which is fine on occasion, but a bit of a trek for a regular game. It's also in a very remote (though pretty) location, meaning that anyone playing out there has to make the trek as well.

Last time I visited The Last Square it was out on the west side, and before that they had a storefront on State Street. Now Google Maps shows the address is a wooded lot 5 miles into the countryside north of Mt. Horeb, almost halfway to Cross Plains. Is that really it?

Yellow Admiral, yes it is. They have the shop at their home. Tim, I'm in Stoughton.

TGerritsen I live on the West Side and also enjoy CY6 pacific and Jet Age.
Too many minis unpainted – WWII 20mm and Quar, but have ECW and Impetus Medieval painted. Board games and have WHFB Orcs and my son has 40K Tau etc.

We have a very active group in the Oshkosh/Appleton/Green Bay area. In January we host a one day convention called TundraCon. link It would be about an hour and a half for you. A chance to meet and greet and maybe make connections. We get a good turnout from MN, WI and IL considering the potential weather.

Not much on the FB page yet, but we are working on a PEL and will offer historic and sci fi games.
