This store opened just as I started my first year at university and I have been a regular ever since I got into Warhammer 40,000: the prices are regularly a quarter of Games Workshop's and the atmosphere is much more welcoming (especially since GW is turning its back on gamers looking for tables to play on). The hard sell doesn't exist here as the prices speak for themselves, but the staff are friendly and passionate in all the right ways.
It isn't just GW products, though, with many different systems on offer (including Privateer Press and Spartan Games). People in this store will always be willing to talk to you about your army and, as a result, the store enjoys links with a number of local gaming groups, including the university's Leicester Sabres. There is a great cross-section of gamers who play here on the days they open late (Tuesday and Wednesday at the time of writing).
Another excellent feature is their online store, which is linked to from their website or available by searching for 'Gifts for Geeks'. You can see all their stock and pricing at a glance, and even place orders for collection! read more
