I really enjoy the painting part of the hobby. Like, really enjoy it. I paint every spare moment I have (which isn't much). But I REALLY want to put my models to use. Any ideas on getting into battling more often? The closest GW store is 30 min away, which isn't that bad of a commute but is quite a problem for a kid who can't drive and has an extremely tight schedule .

I would look for gamers in your area. Maybe a forum for your FLGS? If anything talk to your FLGS. He may have a place to post "ads" for players to find each other.

You can always schedule a game here at Dakka. Put an APB out for gamers in your area in the schedule a game section.
