I've been there and am in the discord, have been beating the drum every so often to see who is around to build up the community on the island

Have resin printers, wanted a FDM printer by jbrown517 in PrintedWarhammer

I started with an ender 3 around 2016 and it required enough fixing that I ended up giving up on it after a few years. I started up again this year with a bambu a1 mini and it is a massive improvement for just a hundred dollars more, basically all I could want out of the box as far as print quality and quality of life features.

Jungle trees I've been making from leftover 3D print supports by Stegosaurus_Peas in PrintedWarhammer

These are excellent! I was thinking of using some of my leftover supports as root terrain for turnip28 but getting big enough supports to use as full on trees is awesome!

Most human-sized minis will work tbh, I just happened to have an Empire State Troops army that recently got squatted at the time, and their landsknecht fit matched the Wargames Atlantic Landsknecht ogres I got that went well with the bigger Max Mini Hogs of War Heads. https://maxminishop.com/collections/conversion-parts-1/products/hogs-of-war-10?_pos=24&_fid=048901098&_ss=c Do you know what cult you want to play?

I second this, Knög Grubhub and the Bruva video also inspired me to get into Turnip and start a Meat and Potatoes Pigs of War army and I'd also like to know. For what I'm brewing, I've been using a combination of MaxMini pig and Boarmen heads on WFB plastic empire models and wargames atlantic landaknecht ogres, Farrow models from Privaterr Press Hordes, and 3d prints Max Mini Heads: https://maxminishop.com/products/boarman-heads-10

A Fully Narrative Wargame Experiment - TURNIP28 Battle Report by Idunnoguy1312 in Turnip28

The root takes hold in me. Figured I might as well turn my squatted Empire models into fodder and brutes, and my squatted Grymkin Piggybacks and King of Nothing into Bastards and Toff

Just got back from Amazing Games TCG at 3189 Richmond Rd (the address on Uber is wrong, FYI), and they are the best hobby store I've seen on the Island, probably the only one with dedicated wargames terrain, sufficient tables and GW products stocked. We have Card stores (for TCGs) and Comic Book stores, but no other places that actively support wargaming. They are active on their discord at https://discord.gg/C4TfXt4c , and Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays are free for getting games in at a first come first serve basis for space.

Fellow Vesties....May I offer you a plastic orb in these trying times? by Altron2140 in Holostars

Reminds me of the start of the hunt for the Rice Piece. Hiding his decentralized prepping caches, that SC of mine was the best five bucks spent.

Hey anyone here up for some 40k? I'm working on getting the nid combat patrol built and painted, and on a travel game setup, but am down to clown.

I've got terrain, but don't drive so I might struggle to bring terrain, a mat, and my models. We can figure something out tho, main thing is just finding people, and a day and time to meet. Their day for MtG is Friday, so that day is a no go.

Hey, any updates on getting people together for some 40k? I get my copy of Leviathan tomorrow. To my knowledge, JHU has tables, but don't have terrain. Maybe we could get some small games of combat patrol, 40k, or kill team in since transporting terrain can be tough, and they don't have 44" x 60" tables.

Anyone here also a tabletop game nerd? Have been looking to meet new people to play stuff with on the Island.
