Hi from sunny South Africa!

Yes we do play down here. I've been into various games for years, historical, fantasy, sci-fi, roleplaying, etc. I'm a great Tolkein fan (he was born here after all) and lately have built up quite a collection of LOTR figures. Harad, Easterlings, Mordor, Moria, Gondor, Rohan, plus a scattering of others. That is on top of historical armies, Warhammer Fantasy, and 40K stuff. Naturally a lot of these are either unpainted or in various stages of WIP, in short I have gamers disease ... the one that can never look at a picture of a model figure of any type without thinking of how cool it would be to game with it... No piece of scrap cardboard etc is safe either as it is weighed up fo potential use on a model/piece of terrain

welcome to the forums
