League of Ancients (Melbourne)

Plays largely DBM, although DBR, DBA and HOTT put in an appearance occasionally - even some WRG 7th edition. Both 15mm and 25mm are played, sometimes 6mm, but phone beforehand or contact Martin if you want to make sure of a game in other than 15mm.

There are about 30+ members, with usual attendance 15-20. We meet on the third Sunday of every month at the RAAF Club, Cromwell Street, South Yarra.

Normally, Rory from The Military Bookroom and Brian Hall of The Hall of Ancient Warriors are in attendance. The League is also responsible for organising the Victorian DBM Titles.
