Spazzola Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I guess I'll kick off here. From the Salisbury Downs area, still working on finishing my main force and will probably get back into active gaming sometime next year. Till then I'll stay nice and fluffy ;) Any recommendations for decent gaming spots?

Journeyman Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 G'day, I have recently joined B&C. I don't get to game much nowadays but still collect & paint. I have a Nightlords force (4ed), Khornite force, (Orks galore) and now SMs. I was hunting around to develop some background for my SMs. Great to find this knowledge base. I was going to build an Ultramarines force but liked the Crimson Fists picture on the old SM codex, plus the crusade style of the Templars has me slightly hooked. I'm thinking of building a Declates Campaign force but! are the Templars to similar to the SWs?. I have a 'one-day-to-be-assembled SW force.

Slaphappy Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Hiya people, I'm in the Plympton area, I recommend a shop called military hobbies on port rd as they do the 10% discount thingy on all GW purchases over $20. They don't have a great range in stock but order in for ya. I'm not a plant, though I realise that I just did an ad for 'em, I just have difficulty with the current pricing structure of GW products. Oh and there is a lot of 2nd hand stuff there too. I've been a 40k junkie for over a decade and have approx 18000 pts of chaos space marines, 5000 pts or so of Orks, 3000 pts or so of eldar,tau and necrons. I have a deep and abiding love for 40k and I love my csm but I'm finding the new codex bland. But even worse, Eldar get mashed vs most forces unless I spend daft money on vehicles I don't really want so I'm sidelining a whole army due to list issues! Oh well. I don't get to game much due to my job commitments and y'now, life and a wife etc, etc but I'm nearly finished a tourney force of plague marines 1750pts so then I'll get some games probably just to watch the lovely freshly painted and converted models get mullered asap!! such is the life of a gamer.

Journeyman Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Just wondering, how many SA folk collect only as opposed to playing regular games? The fluff got me interested in 40k. Actually I used to have several large EPIC armies which got a run on the paddock. Now it is cut and paint only.

Illithid Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Howdy 40k Gamers. We are a small group of 9 in the southern suburbs (Noarlunga area) and have a campaign group that has room for ONE of the following to join into our Round Robin Campaign group: Eldar Dark Eldar Necrons Chaos Demons We currently have 9 players and a permanent venue with ample terrain and 5 boards. We play either Saturday afternoons / evenings (times either 12-6pm or 3-9pm) or Sundays (12-6pm). very relaxed group and friendly, but would prefer mature players. If this sounds like you and you could regularly attend once a month, drop me a PM or send an email to draenath@hotmail.com Cheers!

maxybond Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 hey there South Aussies!! i honestly didn't expect this many SA peeps on 1 forum. but anyways!! Ill be starting to collect again soon. and was wondering if anyone knew any decent places to buy from? my brother brought heaps from maelstrom games over in the UK. i was wondering if there was something like that (similiar) prices to it anyway, closer to home. secondly.. is there many places around that host games and such. cause the only 2 GWs i know of are at Marion and in the city. but they are quite small. and last i heard the Marion one was getting shut down. oh and close to the southern suburbs (Reynella) area would be sweet! anyways. thanks guys. hope to see some of you guys/girls around!

Journeyman Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Heads up to 40k gamers in SA, some nice painted figures available from Military Hobbies, Hindmarsh. Just picked up some Sterngaurd/ veterans 10 @ $5ea (painted). Scouts, SM & SW, DA CSM and more available (painted).

Journeyman Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hey fellow South Aussies I was wondering what we play/ preference in this state? I have: Crimson Fists, SM Scout (at the moment CF)' Nightlords' Khornite. Slightly more points on the chaos side. (not to mention zenos orks and elder... sh! I said not to mention them) Does anyone have Shrike in their force? I find that amusing (for non-aussies, the piping shrike is on our state flag) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177179-south-australia/#findComment-3398523 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartan601 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Hey Journeyman, My armies include: Sisters of Battle Blood Angels Space Wolves Imperial Guard Eldar Orks The general preferences I've seen is mainly power armoured armies, GK and DA seem to be very popular, also Tau, for obvious reasons. I'd love to make a Raven Guard army, but Mantis Warriors are next on my dream list.
