    This will take you to specific special interest groups within IPMS. Some may be of interest.

    My thinking was from your post about recruitment. An idea may be to target specific aircraft museum/shows where mainly aircraft enthusiasts go. Rather than try to do every wargame show where we are competing with 10-20 other games covering all periods and scales.

    Good marketing strategy Neil. I'm just a bit concerned about us spreading ourselves too thin. However, if anyone fancied doing one in their own area I have no problem as long as they had a minimum of four members go to support the event. Three on the table, and one getting a break.
