Local stores? - aprilmanha - 10-09-2014
I've been trying to work out the places that are pretty local that carry things like Warmachine and other hobby games, plus hoping to find alot of Vigello paints which seem to have shipping troubles from online!
So far I have only found Wayland Forge in Brum and they don't have much in the way of miniatures it seems.
I've tried going through the list of suppliers but I think its mostly interent stores there, so I was wondering where everyone here goes for their hobby shop fixes

Titan games in stourbridge
Wayland forge (you already mentioned)
Escape games in Coventry
Total Wargamer in evesham (just never, ever ever use their online service, they're utter crap)
titan is probably the best of these IMO mainly because Steve and Brett are ace.

The store is pretty much defunct at the moment I think. Been a while since I've been down that way.

Thanks Simian
I'll try Total Wargamer first (I had a bad time with their online store to) and see if they are better in person but if not then I will be off to titan games even through it is a little further

I drive from Solihull round to Titan most of the time. i used to live over that way and miss their happy smiling faces.

Depending on your definition of "local" there's also Worcester Wargames: https://www.facebook.com/worcester.wargames

Worcester is actually pretty close for me, about 20 minutes away.
I actually went looking for these guys though and could not find them, I had assumed they had closed down?

I know they moved, but not sure if this is where they still are: http://forum.redwarsoc.com/showthread.php?tid=1515&pid=19984#pid19984
