Hi!
Maksim, weren't there other 6mm yahoo groups? What happened to them? They still around?
I like the idea of a 6mm group for all genres, count me in!

I created a new group a few months ago to discuss 6mm miniatures including 6mm sci-fi miniatures such as Epic and other games. The site has an incredible database, files, and links section. Some of the links areas cover rarer genres of 6mm miniatures gaming such as monster (Godzilla) gaming, 6mm autodueling (Car Wars), microarmor (W.W.I, W.W.II and Moderns) and nearly every major genre of 6mm historical (Ancients to ACW and beyond) wargaming. Everyone interested is invited to join. URL: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/6mm_Minia ... d=33231403 Purpose: This group has been established to support 6mm minatures gamers of all genres. Membership So Far: As of 3 October 2003, the majority of the posts' contents have revolved around 6mm WWII, Moderns, and Sci-fi miniatures and games , but ALL 6mm gamers are welcome to join and post. We'd welcome a larger and greater 6mm Napoleonic, 6mm ACW, 6mm ECW, and/or 6mm Ancients community. 6mm Air Gamers' Note: So far the 6mm air gamers community here is small. We recommend heading to the Air Pirates or Blue Skies web sites for better coverage of 6mm air gaming (and related scales). Allowed Posts: As long as the posts have a strong relation to 6mm minatures and 6mm gaming, they will be allowed at the moderators' discretion. You are welcome to write posts about trades, battle reports, miniature questions, mini assembly, mini painting, game background chat, or just about anything else related to 6mm miniature gaming. Best regards to all and Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

Peter, The first 6mm group (still have links to it) had the owner run off and abandoned it (and didn't have any moderators either). Yahoo won't allow someone to take it over so it is deluged with SPAM and Porno / credit card / garbage advertizers. I got sick of it back in March (or whenever I formed the site) and founded the 6mm_miniatures E-group. I still belong to the old one, but it is slowly disintegrating. For example, Yahoo already delted the photo section because there is no moderator or owner around. This makes Yahoo think the group has been abandoned despite the members' posts and activity. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

Hi! Ah, I see. Shame the list is dying off. It makes your making a new list all the more important. I for one look forward to such a list under your control. By the way, have you asked people to migrate from the old list to the new one? Primarch |

Peter, I can't remember if I ever did it formally. I think so, but it's been several months since the group was formed and it's doing well. While I founded the list, it's not really under my control. All the moderators (lots) of them can do anything I can except delete the group (I reserved that privelege for myself since I went to the work of founding the group). I think I just made you a moderator too. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

Hi! Cool! I always frequented that list but never really particiapted fully. I think now it will be a real boon though. By the way I posted a question regarding using 6mm in Flames of war. Any input appreciated. Primarch |

I joined this group about 2 months ago, and I have been lurking ever since. It throws up some interesting and useful stuff. |

You guys should check out the links section. It's nice. Cybershadow, What's your user name at the 6mm E-group? Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

I was very impressed with the links section. I would like to see more US manufacturers, though. I'll try to scrounge some up over the next few weeks/months. At the very least, I know I have a URL for a US distributor of Irregular Miniatures. |

Neal, There are only two main people putting in links. I just haven't gotten around to finish inputting all the links. I do a couple at a time and edit the update line to feflect the change. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |
