Today's article is a photo-fest brought to you by our own Drew Stearman, our correspondent from Australia.  A little over a week ago, Drew attended a convention in his home of Adelaide, South Australia and took lots of photos for us to check out the proceedings!  Big thanks to Drew for sending us these!

Little Wars Adelaide Australia Convention

Hello fellow gamers!

This is a short article of my experience (everyone loves XP) on the Little Wars convention, held on the 12th of July 2014 in little ole Adelaide.  Little Wars is run by a Melbourne group which have decided to branch out to Adelaide to build a better gaming environment.  My experience started well, the door man was very welcoming and polite (even had a few jokes for us).

Name tags were supplied to promote talking and interaction (we all know that gaming communitys can be very clique-y and shy).  The community hall was busy and a hive of activity.  People looked like they where socialising and having fun.  Majority of the gaming tables I visited acknowledged my interested and explained what the hell was going on.  There was a good mix of vendors and plenty of bargains to be bought.

Special notes of interest before i leave you to see for yourself from the photos taken:
  • (Matthew thecampaignermagazine.com) The campaigner magazine taking great photos of the event.
  • Warmachine press gangers putting on a massive game of warmahordes.
  • Dr Who local gamers with life size darleks.
  • S.A Colonial re-enacters.
  • The hobby matrix laser cut terrain. (Support your Local)
  • Carwars made from converted matchbox cars.
  • People with smiles having fun. 
Thanks, Little Wars.  Hope to see you again next year!
