Hey all, so I'm from central CT and want to play WM/H against new factions/opponents. Been playing trolls since mk3 released and have only played against circle and skorne, and not often either.
Are there any groups that play regularly in CT? Nowhere in particular, it's a small state. Even southern mass or RI aren't a long drive either.
I'd like to experience all of what this awesome game has to offer and maybe try my luck in some tournaments!

Arcana is gone, but I'm pretty sure the Battle Standard is still open in East Windsor.
Personally, I frequent Tabletop and Portal every month or so. They both have facebook groups that people use to organize games/events. I just went to a Steamroller at Portal a few weeks ago and I think a Journeymen league is starting at one of the two shops some time in the coming months.

I wish these stores had info available online at places other than Facebook. I avoid that site like the plague.

I can definitely confirm The Battle Standard is not closed, it simply moved from Manchester to East Windsor. I play WMH with a couple of friends there almost every weekend, their stock and ordering are good, and there's a Journeyman league being planned for March.
Lots of table space, lots of scenery pieces, brightly lit, I think they're open until 11 almost every night of the week.
I've been to both The Portal and Tabletop Shop and Battle Standard is by far my favorite.

Also, while Fb is not desirable to many, it is by far the best place to find other groups and players. Would consider even just a "dummy" account strictly for keeping in touch with the gaming community.

Went to The Battle Standard today and heard that they're trying for Monday night WarmaHordes! I'm gonna try to get there regularly, it's a great store! Friendly staff, good table space that's well maintained, and pre owned models galore!

Feel free to shoot me a message if you'd like to get some games in some time, weekends are much easier for me but I'm going to try to make it for some of the monday group days as well.

Just an update: There will be a Journeyman League starting up in April at The Battle Standard in East Windsor. I'm helping arrange and run it to some degree, and when there's more concrete information I will be sure to share it here.
Hope some of you may come down and join us!

My schedule is rough, but definitely post the info - there's always a chance I might be able to make it.
