Nearest known active armada community is 5-6 hours (8 in bad weather last time). Also have to make a border crossing every time, but I'm getting used to the sour look of the officer when when we say our business in their country is playing with plastic space ships. Next closest tournament is 8 hours drive. Flying is expensive in our neck of the woods, but we've debated a 1000mile round trip on the railroad tracks.
Good news is we are just recently having enough locals to do 4 or 6 person informal 'tournaments' for bragging rights.
Are we all crazy?
