Hi All,
Here's a question for you all, how many of you play games regularly and if, you do - where do you play - at home or a club? I ask because I usually end up playing at a friends house where my options for narrative gaming is rather curtailed, now don't get me wrong I'll write a army list and square off against the best, when the mood takes me, as stand tactic's are standard tactics - refused flank, hammer and anvil and stand and shoot being but a few.
But I usually end up fairly non-committal as to how the game played out, because I've no connection or character in developing the game further - than tweaking an army list to counter the latest super-troop/tactic. Unlike my growing interest in my 'C' series, Citadel Half-orcs boldly led by It-him & assisted by Urtem, (less than fifty figures) which, when ever I'm invited to play a 'small' game of third edition I find myself turning to. Last outing they'd fallen on hard times and thus fallen into thuggery/banditry in and around a Britonnian manor, who's lord tried and failed to drive them off (a story for another time).
But, I digress, this post is asking the question - do you have wargaming facilities close-by, you use ? My daughter recently pointed me in the direction of a local store in High Wycombe, where for a reasonably small fee you can hire a table and play a game of whatever takes your fancy, this led me to do a small amount of reconnaissance, yesterday afternoon, where I found details of a gathering of table-top gamers at my local library - mostly playing magic and the like, but I can forgive them that! and they pay an even smaller fee (£2.00) to play from 10:30 to 16:30 on a Saturday. Now I know there are other establishments which offer such services - my original home town of Barnsley has a store which offers such services, we all know Foundry let's you use their tables - so my question is - does your local area have such stores and would you be up for a game - if, I or A. N. Other was passing by and you had a few hours to spare for a small game?
In hope of a response

. I no longer travel there on a regular basis, but once or twice a year, I do; so, next time I'm up that way, I'll put the notice out and if, ever you fancy a game - just say the word and I'll bring along the troops
