Hello from Canada, eh.
« on: December 01, 2023, 08:17:56 PM »
Hello! Thanks for approving my account.

I am from Canada; my likes are wide, but include:

- Horus Heresy & Necromunda, and an army of Orks from the Dark Times of 2020-2022 that I built and painted. Never played.
- Dark Ages - specifically later era Vikings
- Gothic Western, I have a Dracula in the West project to work on
- Post-Apoc, both Zona Alfa and Doomed (haven’t painting anything for Doomed)
- Car Wars
- Star Wars Legion, but just the minis, to paint

I’m sure I’ve missed something in the projects pile, but that’s about it for me.


Anyway, hopefully I can maybe meet some other gamers in the NW of Calgary, and actually play sometime.

Cheers,

Dickie

Welcome to LAF!

I’m about 300km north of you, in Edmonton, see not much help, sadly.

I lived in Calgary for about 20 years, though. There should be at least a few people with compatible interests. If you’re new to Calgary and haven’t been to the Sentry Box yet, it might be a good place to start. Miniatures enthusiasts of all sorts converge there!

Calgary has Sentry Box, and therefore is fine in my books!
