Welcome to Wigan Tabletop Games Club

Don't forget to use the 'Manage Participation' button on the Calendar Event page to indicate whether you will be attending.


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.

    Given my dice rolls, if Barry's force had stayed home at base having a brew and a smoke, and let me advance on the objectives, I'd have still tripped over my own feet !

    It was a list using one of the rites of war.....i agree it was very powerful but at least two shouldve gone down but for some unlucky rolls to wound combined with lucky saves ......a few lascannons may have been the difference!

    So all dread armies are a winning thing in 2nd ed HH and need some balancing Peter, unless of course they are Peters rules. Community rules typically say 1 dread per 1000pts to avoid them dominating games.

    Certainly a brutal display by the Imperials,…
