I dare anyone to beat this. I learnt last time I was in the UK that a new wargames club had opened 5 minutes from my house on the bus.

The location has to be the best place in the world in terms of atmospherics.

The Royal Artillery museum!

Not only do you play surrounded by artillery pieces but their is the battlefield soundtrack playing in the background (and of course restaurant and bar).

Before I name it the 'best' place, how much would it cost me to get drunk there?

All I can remember was it closed at 10. Though obviously if thats the criteria a private bar is far superior (my old civil service post had a bar with stella for 1.20 a pint - though apparently the customs and excise bar is cheaper).

Damn I had a place in Deptford for a year, would have been a 5 minute drive to game there.

Now I'm up in North London, it's miles away.  :sad:
