didnt know where to put this but any people in teh tampa bay area of florida play dust tactics or warfare regularly,

it's sofar all been 40k mostly.

I think your best bet is to demo the game at your LGS and try to pull players in that way. Most people get stuck in the GW Warhammer loop and have trouble branching out, but if you can demo Dust for them and explain some of the benefits it has over the GW line of games you may have some success. In many people's opinion it is a superior game in most respects, so the biggest thing is building some buzz around it at your LGS.

agreed, then explain to them how they can play several armies versus one
