Discussion Forums

On e-groups (now Yahoo groups)

2mm Not very active but some interesting stuff in the Files section.
6mm Moderately active group, some very good discussions and information with very little trivia or spam.
DBA Pretty active and a good place to ask questions about the rules. You may find some of the discussions rather trivial though, particularly the 'Barker Bashing' types which are fairly common from time to time.
Ancient & Medieval Set up by Tony Barr of the SoA but open to all comers. A very active group with many members and a large number of posters. gets quite 'academic' at times.
Renaissance Covers up to early 18th C, most posts are on topics after 1600
Horse Foot & Guns A very active group at present
   
Military History Sites
