Ray, lots or wargamers keep the fact they are wargamers, annonymous.  ( I new one person who was married 3 years before breaking the news to his wife). 

So your local wargames club isa full of annonymous petwer addicts. the problem with "Pewter Addicst Annonymous" or PAA as its known is that the members work completely opposite to other addiction groups.

At PAA you will be shown lots of shiney new pewter to drool over, Nicely painted pewter to covet and lots of encouragement to buy more pewter to enhance your collection, or even start one in a new scale or period.  Members of PAA are proud of the amount of Pewter they have, particuarly the mint unpainted stuff and hoard it  as a Dragon would hoard gold and jewels.

They will hold expiditions in to far away unknown lands inhabbited by barbarians to find lengendary places such as Smoggy Con or The Valley of "The Triples" where no addict has ever returned with anything more than small change in his wallet and vast quantiies of Pewter.

They will talk of the  Dark Lords Leon and Dave,  and wisper the name of the mythologial beasts such as the "Pendraken Centurion Tank" Darker Lords will even mention 10mm  Aztecs or the evil empire.  They may even get you to try the drug of Resin or even the new drug plastic.

So join if will, it will bring you great pleasure but wil do nothing to cure your addiction.


PS. I must have taken some of what FSN is on 

Thank you everyone for the attending the first official meeting of the PAA.

Rulebooks

Yeah, they are addictive.  Not as shiny as pewter though

Oh god, don't talk about rule books.  Do I really need 3 dedicated and 1 generic ACW sets?

Of course you do LH, you need as many as possible to fill up those shelves with, after all one set might give your favourite unit an extra edge in combat. The trouble is you dont know if it does until youve bought it skimmed through it quickly and bunged it onto the shelf.

Thanks nothing, I've probably got twice that number and have never actually played an ACW game!
