Wow! That covers a lot of ground!
I have played one game of x-wing and quite enjoyed it, not sure if I am ready to commit to another game though! ha.
No I am not, not sure I have heard of it..where could I find it?
I did stick my head into the valleycon when that was last on, had no idea something like that went down in little ol' Upper Hutt! Were you a part of that?

You can find the club at St. Brendans school in Silverstream, here you go;
https://huttclub.wordpress.com/
They have their yearly bash in June which can be worth a look. Havent been to the club for ages for one reason and another but it was pretty diverse back when I did, although it did tend to lean towards historicals. They are also the people who do Valleycon.

I've recently moved to Wellington myself from the UK.
Hi all
Quick question as you're all already here - is there anywhere here to get paints and stuff that aren't ridiculously overpriced?
GW prices seem to be tripled over here so I'm looking for somewhere to either get them at normal price or get competitor paints like Vallejo or Army Painter

Thanks for the offer
I live under the constant dream of someday finishing enough of an army to actually play a game! One day...
Unfortunately the vast majority of my stuff is tied up in shipping so I don't have much right now. Once I've got some stuff ready I'll definitely be keen to play my first ever game ;D

Greetings possum, did you pack a shipping container full of GW stuff before you left?
Best prices I have found for hobby supplies is mighty ape ( www.mightyape.co.nz) they even slightly discount GW stuff however if you are looking at buying GW models then your best bet is to buy from the US as its way cheaper.

I packed all my supplies, yeah. It's certainly not a shipping container but it is a few cubic metres ;D
I spotted Mighty Ape, gonna go there and get some neccessities.
I'm going to save up and put an order in with my old favourite, Wayland Games in the UK.
They ship to NZ and their prices are 20% off british GW prices. I've spent thousands of pounds there over the years (commission painter for 7 years) and they've always been reliable.

I don't think you will have any joy getting Wayland to ship GW stuff out here mate, as far as I am aware they are supplied directly by the company so have to obey the embargo. There are a few other places that do however.

There's not really an embargo, it's just that for whatever reason GW stores here triple their prices. Wayland offer international shipping storewide with no exceptions listed anywhere.
I may be wrong, of course, but don't foresee any issue.
