Howdy Folks,
I am getting closer to my move time (June 29th). I am moving to Seoul.
I have many hobbies and activities that I like to indulge in.One of them is table top wargaming. I like to play with the miniatures and paint them. Are there any of you guys that play? Is it even worth bringing my stuff?
Thanks for yalls help |

Do you paint the metal figures like Orc's Goblins Elves. I used to do that in the eighties I've still got lots of LOR charachers. Plus I'm into The Battle of Waterloo. Is it kind of a diorama wargame? Sounds cool. You can't get the figures here. |

I left all my stuff at home but if you get here and are looking for someone to play with, I'm always down for some games. I prefer more traditional games like Settlers of Catan, Blokus, Descent, games like that but I've played 40k for a while and just got out of it before I left. |

Orctown is basically the place to go. However I've always been a little peeved that they just never opted to carry TCGs. |

Do you know any place with an active TCG crowd? I used to play a lot. Been to a few national championships. IMO the games that are out right now are not very exciting. I've been waiting patently for a new game to come out that will pick up. Not sure if the day of TCGs are over though. At the moment I feel like the only ones that are still around to any degree are Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh, and maybe Magic. Dominion is a great replacement but it's completely impractical for tournaments so you could never really compete. I still used to play a lot online before I came to Korea. If anyone knows how to play or wants to learn, let me know. |

Just wanted to drop in and say that I think this stuff is awesome. Not so much the gaming, but the fact that you guys are doing it. Finding ways to keep your hobbies going is a great way to make your time in Korea the best it can be. I'm also amazed that there is so much interest in such niche hobbies, but then again, I was similarly surprised at the length of the "Magic: The Gathering" thread.
