Well at one point (pre-TL) I had 4 regular players plus we would gather
at a local store where there were at least 3-4 more. Great place,
serious hive of GW activity. Then it closed as the owner got nailed for
tax issues (about a year ago) Since then, our game time has dropped off
the map. One guy moved away, one we just don't see as much, I got
married, then we had a baby, etc. Did pick up some nice stuff at the IRS
auction for the sroe's inventory, though - my 2 friends and I went in
together and bought _all_ of the GW mini's from both of the stores - let
me tell ya, _that_ was a kick.
        Our current status is on the upswing, as we are making an effort
to get together more. We've actually played some Epic 40K & some SM/TL
recently and the plan is to start playing at the "guy we don't see much"
's new house. There's also another store we go to , but it just ain't
the same. Smaller crowd, different crowd - too many card fiends, not
enough mini gamers, other than a few WH40K munchkinites...
