Bank Holiday Extended Opening - Sunday 3rd & Sunday 24th May - 12pm until late
We are a tabletop miniature wargaming, boardgame and RPG club based in Winstanley, Wigan. We run regular gaming nights every Friday and Sunday from 7pm until late plus the occasional all day event (check out our calendar to see what's coming up).
On any given evening you might find members playing a variety of Euro and Ameritrash board games, miniature wargames and role playing games. You can also expect to find a few members painting up their latest forces and engaging in a spot of modelling (no, not like that!)
Check out what we've been up to in our forum pages and, if you like what you see, get registered and introduce yourself to the rest of the gang. Better still, come down, see us in person and get gaming.
Club opening times, fees and activities
Opening times: Friday and Sunday Evenings, 7pm until late.
Fees: Your first visit to the club is always free so you can get a feel of who we are and have brew and a chat. After that is £3 per night, or £10 a month via standing order.
Activities: Any type of boardgame/miniature gaming/painting and model making is welcomed at any club meet but over time we have found a typical week see Fridays more board game focused and Sundays more miniature game focus, though this is never a fixed thing and is entirely dependant on individuals organising what they will play and when. We also typically see people painting and modelling at the club, and we have tables and lighting to support that.

Replied to the thread Avalon Hill Heroquest - to Advanced Heroquest - The Next Batch.PostHaha.. yeah I think I've played something similar. I've made so many extra board pieces the generation tables are a little out of hand. But 'random' dungeon generation means no two explorations are the same. AHQ is very killy - so time consumption plus… -

Replied to the thread Avalon Hill Heroquest - to Advanced Heroquest - The Next Batch.PostThis is quite a diversion, but do you have a Ravensburger Labyrinth board ?
Playing on that with 4 players is impossible to finish
Every time someone else moves the layout is changed
Even with 2 players it goes on for hours -
