The events will be:

"Take down Stevo's Titan"..see if you have the metal to take on a Warhound and survive!

"Its all gone Starship Troopers!"..20 Imperial Guard in a bunker trying to kill the most Bugs by turn six..the winner with the most kills gets a Carnafex!!!!

We have a Warmachine demo table and Flames of War so if you fancy trying something new and really cool come and have a look...PLUS an open table where you can bring along your own models and battle anyone... Members and non members welcome!!

If you feel hungry the Bury 1st Scout Group will be running a BBQ with all the money being made being donated to them by Bury Wargamers (We are buying the food for them to cook and sell!!!)

The Good The Bad and the Ugly!!! .15/09/07

Hi Guys Captain Stevo Here.

Another great night at Bury Wargamers Club:

The GOOD.

Good to see that the scouts have nearly finished refurbishing their HQ and its going to look great. GOOD to see a great turn out from Juniors and Veterans and thanks to everyone who helped out on Saturday night.GOOD to see some new faces at the club, at the moment we have 54 members which is great considering we have only been going for just under a year.

The BAD.

Bad news about the Bury Free Press not turning up to do a piece on the club, especially as they were very keen to look at what we do. BAD luck to everyone who got a bit of "spanking" in the Tank Battle, just remember is all about learning to play the game and having fun.

AND

The UGLY.
Thanks to everyone who helped to run the Tank Battle on Saturday night, it could have got very ugly if we didnt have people to step in to help out when we are short handed as a few of our juniors get a bit "Excited" when they start playing and it is very easy to loose focus on what is trying to be achieved that evening.

So well done to everyone , Juniors , veterans and parents alike who made it another fun evening as always at Bury Wargamers

Cheers for now.

Captain Stevo

p.s. Whilst the tank battle rages, the Tyranids stage an invasion elsewhere...

Club Night Report from 1st September



Bit overdue but here's a brief round up from the last Club Night. Another busy turnout - you can see the packed Juniors Training Table in the background above. I should have noted down what everyone was up to, but I think we had games of WH40k, Warmachine and Warmaster. My Khador battle group certainly got a good tonking from Steve's Cygnar, but have since knocked out their dents and will be back for more!

The Scouts are making slow progress on the DIY improvements so it was temporary kitchen again, but hope this will be completed soon.

See you at the tank bash on Saturday!

Tank Battle for the 15th September.

Just a litte reminder that on Saturday we will be doing the Mega Tank Battle with the juniors on the large training table, so if you have anything that has an armour value..or for those who's army has no tanks (E.G Nids) bring along a Tank Killing unit as i have some thing special for you to do on the night. Also anyone who is new to the club and has not got as far as buying some heavy support dont worry as i am sure there will be some spare tanks...or even a Warhound Titan available to use.

We will also be having a visit from the Bury Free Press so bring along everything you need to use on the night as i want us to look as professional as possible......that means dice / Tape measures , Codexs , crib sheets and dont forget your MODELS!!!..... plus above all please BEHAVE.... you know who you are and the emperors servents will be watching you and quick justice will be delt out with Bolter and Chain Sword ..... so you have been warned.

And remember the gold rule.. its all about having FUN .

Cheers for now.

Captain Stevo.
