Welcome aboard Quickwork!  What Dystopian Wars fleets do you run?  I'm primarily an FSA player myself, but I have an extensive French fleet and the beginnings of a Chinese fleet.

Any space or fantasy naval gaming?  We also cater here to Firestorm Armada, X-Wing, Star Trek: Attack Wing, and other space naval games, as well as Uncharted Seas and DeepWars on the fantasy side.  We also have some members who dabble in historical naval wargaming, if you're interested in that side of the hobby.  Ruckdog has a couple interesting posts about the new Sails of Glory game.

Glad you found our forum!  Feel free to post pics of your models and battle reports in the appropriate sections...especially if any of your battles involve sinking Prussian ships...  ;)

Thanks for the welcome!

I have a Covenant of Antarctica Starter and a Empire of the Blazing Sun Fleet (both are still small points). I would love to try out Firestorm Armada but the rural area I live in most makes me that Paint and forum lurk type. I should check out ruck dogs posts though on sails of glory!

Here are some peeks at my fleet.

Nice fleet, I feel your pain in trying to drum up players. Rural Tennessee doesn't have a huge gaming draw :(.

Very original look for CoA ships.  Most people tend to go with some variation on blue and white and gray, given that they're based in Antarctica.  They look great!  If you have more pics, post them down in the Showcase section--would like to see more of this fleet!

@AndrewChrislieb: Do you know of any stores or Cons near London/Lexington/Knoxville for DW or Firestorm fun?

@Landlubber: I'll put some more pics into the Showcase Section although I don't have much more CoA stuff

I'm guessing you're looking for Lexington KY? I live just outside Lexington TN but thats probably not going to help you any :P. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with East Tn :(.
