Title: G'Day from Wollongong New South Wales
Post by: Sparker on July 27, 2014, 12:01:34 AM

Hi Everyone!

Just to introduce myself, I am Sparker. My main interests are Napoleonics, ACW, WW2, Cold War, but I'm also interested in WOTR and Ancients (actually off to a Towton wargame in minutes few at my 'local' FLGS - 'local' being a variable concept Down Under!)

Rules I use, in the same order, are Black Powder, BattleGroup Kursk etc, Hail Caesar. Also FOW but not into competitions. Also we play Maurice and Longstreet at my Uni Clube.

I guess I will fill in my profile later when I have more time, but at this stage that's probably all anyone is interested in!

Oh and my 'Sparkers Wargaming Blog' can be seen here: http://sparkerswargames.blogspot.com.au/ (http://sparkerswargames.blogspot.com.au/)

Cheers

There goes the neighbourhood... lol

Hello Sparker

This explains the oddly impassioned spray in Another Place.

I'm thinking of contacting Scott Morrison about all these refugees.
(Australian in-joke for anyone who is confused)

Welcome aboard
