I don't think specialized newsgroups for Arctic and the myriad of other
subthemes would get enough traffic to be worthwhile.  Better to keep it in
lugnet.town, I think.

Royal Knights, Dragon Masters, etc.), Pirates (Islanders, Imperial Guards,
etc.), as well, and also subgroups like DUPLO Dinosaurs, DUPLO Toolo.
