Hello all, We just released out 2012 England tour.. Here is the press release

Geek Nation Tours Releases 2012 England Tour

Every two years Geek Nation Tours travels across the Atlantic to one of our favourite geeky destinations – England. This time, because you requested it – we added more Days! more Gaming! more Sites and more Fun....

Every miniature wargaming Geek's dream is to visit one of the birth places of wargaming. If you are a fan of 40K or Fantasy and want to see many of the wargaming sites in the UK while being surrounded by people of like mind - this is the tour for you. You will meet people that are just as enthusiastic about 40K or Fantasy as you are. Our tour participants agree that while not only do you see super cool places and things while on tour - but you also make friends with great people from around the world.

Join us as we visit not only historical sites and museums like – the HMS Belfast, Tower of London, The Imperial War Museum, and Warwick Castle – but also Games Day UK and Warhammer World. Have a drink and a meal at a local pub in Nottingham and maybe even meet a wargame celebrity or two. Throw down some dice with a favourite podcaster at Maelstrom games as UK gamers take on the world.

Geek Nation Tours is happy to announce that Kyle from 40K Radio will be joining us on our tour. Kyle is a huge fan of both 40K and of GW and will be a big part of all the fun on the tour. Further we will be joined by some of the crew from The Overlords and the crew from 40KUK podcasts at our Maelstrom mini tournament.

Tour date are September 18th to 28th

We have both pricing that includes the air cost and prices that include only the tour. These options allow you to fly from any origin city around the world and join the tour.

Don't have a friend to get the double occupancy rate? That is what Geek Nation Tours does. Book as a double occupancy and we will match you up a roommate... This way you get the best of both worlds - someone to BS about the con with - and more cash to spend!

Promotions! Yes we are doing our “Titanic” draw on this trip to England also... Visit our site for more details

Visit www.geeknationtours.com for more details or email headgeek@geeknationtours.com Full tour details can be seen at: http://www.geeknationtours.com/index.php?pageid=31&tourid=12

Thank you,

Hello All,

Just a quick reminder to book and secure a spot by February 28th to get a better chance on our England Tour's Titan raffle promo... Here are the details....

As is tradition, we will have our “Titanic Surprise Draw" again this year. It will take place during our "welcome dinner" in London, England.We can't tell you exactly what it is but it comes from the UK, has two really big guns, has to do with war, is themed after a hound, and is Titanic! Fantasy player? No worries! You are included too...With magic we can "zap" that Titan into your favorite alternative miniture....

We are however, going to throw a new twist on the draw. Those booking by February 28th (Deposit of $500.00) will have 3 tickets entered for the draw. Those booking by April 1st will have 2 draws and those that book by July 15th will have one. That’s right! Let Geek Nation Tours do your resin crack shopping for you…. Book early to secure your “Titan Tickets” and increase your odds on bringing something home on us.

We are really ramping it up now... Just a quick post to tour participants....

Hola all,

I just received an email from the crew at Warhammer World and they are organizing our day... Some time this month I will be accepting FW per-orders for the store. If you want your resin at the store when you get there you can order it prior. Basically however you have several different ways of getting your resin.

1) Pre-order for Warhammer World store pick up (if you want to have your FW and bring it home with you)
2) In store ordering at Warhammer World. I am double checking on this but last time we had free shipping on all orders. If this is the case this is a great option as you can buy what you want and not have to carry it home.
3) Buy your FW at Games Day. This is cool too but the lines where a bit messy last time... Just beware... Oh you can of course preorder for the event but this was also a bit crazy too. The only issue with not getting any FW at GD is that you will not get the special GD UK miniature....

The crew at Warhammer World also wanted you to see the following link... Just to get the blood running....

Whilst you guys are in London be sure to check out Darksphere at Waterloo, near the London Eye.

It's a great store, has 20% off GW products and carries a full range of 3rd party products, also with discounts, and is run by a lovely bunch of guys.

If I was Canadian I would be all over this!

Im an Englishman though, so sadly ive already been to most of those places and Ill need to get excited about something in Canada.

Whilst the Imperial War Museum is of course awesome, Try and fit Bovington Tank museum in for all the tread heads! That place is fething mint!

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.
