Hello,

Having reached the end of my Legion painting queue, I called up the local dice saloon and bought a couple heroes. Since most of us are spending less on gas, less on fast food, and generally not leaving the house, a little bit of that money can go to our plastic armies of space dolls . Call your FLGS and buy something via mail order to help them through. As small businesses, we're their only hope.

I second this message: already, some FLGSs In Italy are starting to work via websites and couriers!

I managed to give mine a fair few purchases before lockdown

Unfortunately, some of us don't have an FLGS nearby that sells legion. It sucks, and makes it hard to support small local businesses.

I was in my FLGS a couple days ago and I asked them how they were doing, and despite all in-store events being cancelled their sales have been up the past week. Apparently people who are stuck at home all day want something to do and are picking up board games and puzzles to fill the time! :lol:

But still, I second the message: let’s continue to support our FLGS’s and do our small part to make sure they make it through these crazy times unscathed!

Indeed.

My FLGS has started curbside pickup in order to let people pickup their stuff while minimizing contact.

My FLGS is doing the same thing.

Not sure amazon counts as local store but maybe my nearest store 2.5 hrs away

My local store (Hobby Bunker) actually did bring me a delivery. The owner will deliver phone orders of $25+, as long as you live near his normal commuting route.
