Mechwarrior: Dark Age

At the end of this month Wizkids Games are going to be releasing Mechwarrior: Dark Age. Set in the Battletech universe, the game uses the same “Combat Dial” bases as Wizkids other games such as Mage Knight & Marvel HeroClix.
The games take about an hour to play & there are already a number of club members interested in playing the game upon its release. If you think you might be interested, check out Wizkids’ Mechwarrior website at:

Or see either Shaun or myself (Jon) for more details.

Warhammer 40,000 Tourney / Blood Bowl Day

The Warhammer 40,000 Tourney/Blood Bowl day takes place on Saturday August 24th. Information as follows:

Cost: £10 to enter Tourney, £5 for Blood Bowl, visitors free.
Time: Doors open around 9am, Registration is at 9:30 sharp.
Tourney rules:
