Auckland Wargaming Club

The Auckland Wargaming Club is a non-profit organisation with approximately 20-30 members. It is one of about 7 similar clubs in the Auckland Region. Auckland is New Zealand's largest metropolis (it actually encompasses 4 cities, 1 town, and 2 rural districts), and with around 1.4 million people it represents over a third of New Zealand's total population of approximately 4.1 million. Auckland also has more boats and yachts per capita than anywhere else in the world; it is about the third largest city in the world for the land area it covers per capita; and it was previously the capital of New Zealand during the colonial period.
