I'm considering a move to Florida area near the panhandle and I'm looking for any miniature wargaming in the area? I do a lot of Historical minis but also some fantasy and Sci Fi as well.

We keep sending retirees to Florida, but they keep dying off. Are you sure the place is safe?

There are a few good gaming cons in Florida including Hurricon in Orlando and Skirmish in Jacksonville, so they are there. Presumably the panhandle has a few kicking around.

Ah, Florida. God's waiting room.

Our daughter went to college at FSU in Tallahassee.

One the professors there wrote a book call "300 miles from anywhere".

Be sure to check the home insurance situation…..

I have a lot of customers for historical minis there, so somebody plays.

In the panhandle, gamers are there but not as concentrated as the Orlando-Tampa area. A group is in Tallahassee and another in the Pensacola area. I have seen a large group in the Jacksonville area. One outstanding painter is in the DeFuniak area.

Most get together at the HMGS-south shows in Kissimmee, Recon and Hurricon.
