Its good to find a place where some one has mixed two of the most epic past-times, scale ship buildind, and active shooting. I am looking to build my first ship here in a few weeks, and any advice is always apreiciated. And, please, forgive my horibal spelling, its an affection of mine that I can't seem to shake.
Welcome to the hobby, and this site. You seem to be in a pretty good location for the combat. There are folks in pretty much every direction from you. Not sure who is closest. But try to hook up with some of them for a build-session, or drop in at a battle, so that you can have a look-see at some ships. Happy hunting. Mikey
There are a group of guys from the MWC right around your area, not sure about any of the other clubs.
