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.

    Wargaming is about grown men playing with toy soldiers

    In the game against the Thousand Suns, the rogue psyker should have left the table at the end of the 1st/ start of 2nd round, due to a failed morale check.
    Against the Imperial Fist, he killed 3 of his wardens in his 1st failed attempt to cast spells…

    The Thousand Sons ran their final extraction game against the Tainted Flesh militia and it was as perfunctory as all their other games. They strode across the terrain with their psychic fast shoe shuffle, flamming and bolting any militia foolish…
