Hi Berent,
If you live close to U of T, Meeple Mart is probably closest for you, as they're right in China town. Currently not allowing 7th edition in their store because of some issues with GW coporate (Here's hopeing they figure it out soon, they have a really sweet place).
There's also the GW up at Yonge and Lawrence, right by the subway, and full of really friendly people.
I haven't been to Dueling Grounds for playing yet, but I hear that they are also a bunch of nice people, with some awesome terrain, right beside Dufferin station.
Also, anyone down for a 1500 pts game tomorrow?

Thanks for the reply!
I've been to GW on Yonge and Lawrence and want to check out Meeple Mart! I was just wondering if there are any designated game days you guys do?
Sincerely,
Berent Batur

Saturday and Sunday seem to be the days most of us are free. Sometime you'll see a few guys looking for mid week games during the week.
Legends has a pretty good Sunday group, there's usually few people there playing

My name is Berent and I started the hobby back in 2004 and stopped in 2008 and now am getting back into it. I'm a third year student at UofT and have a slannesh space marines army along with a dark angels one I am building up now. Do you guys play on a weekly or monthly basis? I would love to get back into the gaming aspect of the hobby! I used to go to the bunker alot back when it was open in Oakville. As well if anyone has suggestions about buidling good dark angels lists, please let me know. I am relearing most of the rules and am just waiting for a smaller verison of the 7th edition rules.
Happy wargaming,
Berent Batur
Oakville bunker eh? Are you out in the Oakville/Mississauga area?

Have yet to check that place out! Heard great things about it! When I was a kid I would go to Square One or the Bunker. I did not realize there were any independent retailers until after I stopped. I will be heading down to Meepletown tmr to see what is up and pick up some stuff.

X Planet Games is great! If you shopped at Square One back in 3rd ed you might remember Lionel as the manger. He was promoted to upper management in GW and moved into the offices at the Bunker. After GW Canada merged with GW USA many of the Canadian staff were laid off. Lionel went with his dream of opening a game store and that store is X Planet Games.
Half of the old employees from Square One still shop there and the store seems to attract an older mature clientele ie lots of us old vets.
I really recommend checking it out especially since you are local to Mississauga.

Update on the Meeplemart situation via their facebook:
Meeplemart and Games Workshop
After careful consideration; reading the numerous comments posted and speaking to many customers regarding Meeplemart's recent GW "dilemma", we have decided to continue to offer Games Workshop products at Meeplemart. While many people no longer have interest in GW's products, many of our customers still do and have expressed the desire for us to continue carrying the products and offering our game space to play 40K and Fantasy.
It has never been our intention to force players to play (or not play) certain systems and we believe it best that (despite what we personally think of GW's business practices), Meeplemart as a business should remain neutral and you, our customers, should make the decision as to whether or not to purchase their goods or put your money elsewhere.
Going forward we will continue to stock (and restock) GW products for the foreseeable future and continue to offer the game space for 40K/ Fantasy play. If GW eventually decides to entirely pull their catalog from retailers (they are close to about 50% at this time), thereby no longer allowing us to sell their products, we may, (WORST case scenario) instigate a small fee for using the game space to play GW games (somewhere in the neighbourhood of $5 a day). We believe this is a fair compromise to our customers that have bought (or will buy) GW products from Meeplemart and significantly reduces the "fear" of buying into/ supporting a game that may or may not (depending on your personal situation) require a store game space to play.
So, over the next couple of days, expect a huge 40K/ Fantasy/ Citadel restock (and new releases) to arrive at Meeplemart.
...and GW will NOT be instigating their annual price increase this year.
So, yay! I don't have to find a new place to game.
40k day is sunday afternoon at meeplemart, and there's usually a few games going on. I'll be busy playing a shadowrun game this weekend, but next week I should be there for a game or two.

Rythem: sorry dude... Just got in big trouble... Threw big party for wife yesterday and last night bc her BDay is today... Just told her I scheduled a game late last night and I was pleasantly educated that bc TODAY is her actual BDay, yesterday's party does not excuse me from spending today with HER. I finally must be domesticated bc she made me actually feel bad :( I'm sorry, but I can't play today.... I should have known better... Sorry for the late notice.

Hello all,
So does anyone have a place where they get together to play at someone's house or a dedicated store in Toronto? I went to Meeplemart and it was awesome! I'm painting my dark angels up and can't wait to start playing again? By any chance does anyone want to split 1 or 2 boxes of Dark vengeance? I take the dark angels and you would take the chaos portion. Or does anyone have the marines from the set I could buy off them?

I would be down for a game in the near future. I just don't have most of models painted and don't have the rules down. So, I would be pretty rusty lol.

Hey Toronto 40k'ers
I'm hoping to get in a couple of games of 7th ed. 40k at Meeplemart this Sunday July 6th. I've yet to actually play a game of 7th, so I need to get a bit of practice in before Astronomicon!
I'd prefer to use Astro limitations since that's what I'm practising for:
-1500 pts, min 1 Combined Arms + any ONE of: Allied Detachment / Formation / Inquisitorial Detachment / Lost and the Damned
-No Come-the-Apocalypse allies
-Warlord trait is selected rather than rolled.
...but if that's too restrictive, I'll be happy to get in any 1500pt games of 7th ed.
Anyone up for a game? I'll be there at noon sharp, and I'll be ready for a second game at 3:00pm sharp.

Great! I'll print out the ~ 20 that I have (downloaded a couple of years ago) and bring them along. They haven't released the updated-for-7th missions yet.
See you at noon,

To my tyranid opponent on Sunday (sorry, didn't catch your name) : we played Perils of the Warp all wrong!
We should only have been Perilsing on double SIXES , not on any doubles. The perils-on-any-doubles is only for non-Daemons casting malefic powers, or for non GKs casting Sanctic. Big Oops, and I know you took more perils wounds than I did.
I think that's all we got wrong though, so for my first (and your second) game of 7th that's not terrible.
