The following are a few cool sites which you might like to check out, either because they're run by wargaming buddies who share my interests and view of wargaming, or else they supply wargaming toys which are well worth having!
South East Scotland Wargames Club, my local Edinburgh wargaming group, and the fellas who run the Claymore show
Cry Havoc and Let Slip the Toys of War, Dougie Trai''s Blog - giving a fresh (and scurrilously biased) angle on the games we play in the Edinburgh club!
