Thursday nights in Abington are seeing a rotating 8-9 players on Thursdays. It drops as low as 4-5 players sometimes but recently with the league it's seen 10.

From what I have seen on the forums here, Tuesdays are the night they seem to want to try for.

I've even considered making the trek down as I've been finding myself free Tuesday nights.

There is also an extremely large facebook group that is used to organize events. There are usually 2-3 tournaments/events running every weekend throughout New England. Although, this month is a little lacking. Probably due to everyone recovering from Templecon.

We have been slowly growing the group in Plainville, and had 5 people there last week.  Tuesdays is the night to go for Warmachine there.  The more the merrier!

Looks like it might be time to give the WM/H section of the wall some love.  It's looking pretty grim right about now.

Plainville had 10 people this Tuesday and it seems like most / all of them will be back next week.

Yep, Tuesdays in Plainville have some momentum. Last week there were 3-4 games going for most of the night. There's a good range of skill levels and it seems everyone's good about helping out the new guys. I get there between 7:00 and 8:00pm and it's in full swing, but I know a couple of the guys start mid-afternoon.

Chase, I sent you a PM. Just saying, cause a lot of people don't check their forum inbox ;)

My whole life is emailing.  You're all set.  Thanks for the email and you should have a reply waiting.

Does any certain night work better for beginners to get a game in? I've got a smallish Menoth force that I would love to learn how to use.

Thursdays in Abington and Tuesdays in Plainville.

Come hang out and hit up any of us for a game. There are always people up for "teaching" games.

I'll be in Abington again this Thursday. I have a starter of Legion. We can alsways fight through a couple of games together.
