Kind of like uniting the tribes - I'll be the Genghis Khan of niche hobby games!<br /><br />As strange as it sounds I also want to give it that Games Workshop style of bright and airiness with helpful staff and enthusiastic smiles all round. Keep gaming fun and make it attractive to outsiders, stop keeping it limited by egos and elitist attitudes. Waylands Forge in Brum feels dirty, the carpet is bedraggled and covered in bits, the walls need painting, it smells of chips and sweat and the staff/patrons are a bit ignorant. I'm really trying to avoid that. I want people to come in as first-time gamers and have a reason to delve deeper into the hobby.<br /><br />There's an idea for a store name - FLAGS (Friendly Local Area Gaming Store).

To keep a gaming club going, you need a group of people who regularly attend so that new players always had someone to game with. I think the link between store and gaming club is very important. All the FLGS (Friendly Local Gaming Store) I've really liked have had a club backbone.Rob Langhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01377928640392467606noreply@blogger.com
