The Loose Association of Wargamers

in these days when the all pervading internet chips away at everything , which physical shops are the best for wargamers ?

Caliver books is a treasure trove

Portcullis Wargames Emporium in Bolton, which although small, has great stock levels from a variety of manufacturers.

I also have to walk through the shop as our local club plays above it

Langley's in Norwich has a large stock of plastic figures, plus more tanks than you can shake a stick at.

Hobbycraft is about as good as it gets down here in the Deep South; one in Woking, one in Havant - about equi-distant from where I live, but #1 son lives in Havant and walks past it on his way to/from work every day.

I haven't been in it since the move to Nottingham, but used to live near it when it was in Southend and it was heaven.

If you like 40K and all things GW, Element Games in Stockport is incredible

I recent discovered Midlam Miniatures in Felling (15 min drive and south of the river but not far...). They have LOTS of boardgames and X-Wing stuff. Their own fantasy type figures and the usual plastics. But they also have a full range of Vallejo and assorted bases and scenic stuff. Dead handy!

Wargames Emporium in Sheffield.

+1 for Caliver. Somehow they managed to move the mess and chaos as-was and re-deposit it in the new premises. Still great to rummage about though.

It's a model shop not a wargames shop as such but he does do a lot of wargames shows,
Parabellum in Hockley Birmingham.
