Club Report 12/11/2016

Hello again,

Great night at the club on Saturday with plenty being played.

We have more of our kings of war league going on with titanic clashes between dwarfs and elves just to name a few.

we saw the mighty Conan and companions fight to save the princess (be it in board game form).

In the cold dark of the future there was the battles of warhammer 40k

and finally a small skirmish battle on the infinity front as the Yu Jing force took on the Aleph.


All in all a great night at the club for all involved, look forward to seeing everyone next time on the 26/11/2016.


Bye for now :)

Update on the club

Hello Everyone,

Just a quick update letting people know whats going on.

We have the Kings of war league going into its second meet, going to be great to see some armies clashing on the tables.

Warmachine and hordes tournament is coming up on the 3rd of December so sure to see some armies rolling out.

Warhammer 40k continues to have a strong presence at the club with games being played every meet so if you fancy a game come down and play.

Infinity games are planned for next meet so if you want a taste of some sci fi skirmish action come down and watch or join in on some games.

Also board games making appearance with the likes of munchkin and i hear that there may be some Conan coming soon.

That is all for now see you all on the 12/11/2016 for the next BWG meet.

BWG Blog overhaul

Hello Everyone,

Over the next few days this website/ Blog is going to be changing and hopefully updated more often.

on that basis i will be deleting quite a lot of the old posts just to give it a fresh clean start.

anyone who wants stuff to stay let me know? also any ideas to improve the blog are welcome.

Hello and Welcome

Just a quicky today, the club will soon ring out with the sound of Kings of War armies clashing across the table as the new 2nd ed BRB is soon to arrive.

Infinity continues a steady progression at the club, with  games happening on a regular basis and many a laugh to be had ( Recently someone blew up their own camouflaged dude with a wayward grenade :D ).

Warmachine / Hordes players will soon be embarking on a new league, players are busy getting their lists finalised for the kick off on the 19th of September.


See you all across the tables.

To Infinity and beyond...

Groan about the title. Infinity the game is up and running at the Club now. 5 or 6 of us have either the Rules, Starter Set or Starter boxes. Last meet we played a 5 person game to get people acquainted with the basic rules. Yet again Ol' Grumpy's Aerial Deployment went off target, landing his trooper in between the Combined Army and Tohaa deployment - he did not last long!

Despite the daunting rulebook, the basics are pretty straightforward, it just masses of exotic equipment and skills that add lot of detail. Unlike lots of our other games, Infinity does reward getting flank or higher positions, covering/suppressing fire teams so brings a nice new dynamic to play style.

Liberal use was made of Mantic's Deadzone terrain to create a crowded battlefield. Hopefully some progress will be made on the Club's pile of mantic sprues to increase the coverage.

Next meet on Sat 11th July.

Our Warmahordes Escalation League hot's up as it moves up to 25 points and using the scenario's from the BRB, with new units being added and players switching casters if they want to change things up in their lists.

On other tables, 40k and WW2 Flames of War see regular action, with Malifaux continuing to impress with some very lovely mini's on show.

BWG Update 5-5-14

The Escalation League is entering its final phase now, as the top 4 battle it out to find out who is top dog in the BWG.

Elsewhere, the Dread ball League and Cup competition is bubbling away nicely, with much death and team destruction happening on a regular basis. Also, a good selection of Board games and Card games are now played at club, Descent and Game of Thrones to name but two, with Spartacus soon to follow.

Whats going on at the BWG ?

Hi guys.

Just a short note to tell you about what's going on and what is in the future for us games wise at the club.

We currently have an Escalation League on-going for 40k, plenty of action and banter to be had there.

In a few short weeks, we will have a Dreadball League on the go and I look forward to pitting my Forge Father team against my friends.

If you have a tournament or league you want to start for your favourite game, post the details in the relevant area on the forum for all to see.

On a happy note, Warmachine is on it's way back to the BWG gaming tables and I for one am very happy to see it back.

Glory to Cygnar.

Spring 2013 Update

Whew, what happened to the Autumn / Winter period? Seemed to go in a rush. Anyway, just a short update to remind people that all the latest news/discussion/campaigns are over on our forum (check out the link on the right!) rather than this blog. Fantastic news that the Club is super busy at the moment, particularly in the early afternoon period, although it does mean that at times you might have to chill for a bit. Still, at least you get to see some of the great armies that are appearing on our boards these days or admire others generalship :-).  See you soon.

The Fate of a Sector is in Your Hands!

War begins next weekend.


Are you ready?

Bury Wargamers' First 40k Tournament - a Report

Well, on April 14th the club hosted its very first 40k Tournament.  The day was a great success, I think everyone who took part enjoyed it!

Well done to our members who walked away with prizes on the day - firstly, to Grant 'Grax Dragon' who won Best Painted Army for his Daemons:

Second place for Painting went to Hadleigh 'hads_chaos_dude' and his Chaos Space Marines:

Commmiserations to Matty 'Tap of Pointlessness' who won the (highly covetted!) wooden spoon:

Congratulations to James 'Pedro Kantor' for winning the award for Most Sporting Player:

Overall runner up was James Moore, who played 'Nids:

And congratulations to overall Tournament Winner Rem 'Nixon' with his pretty-much all-conquering Space Wolves army - surely time to retire these now, eh? ;-)

Thanks to Matt 'GreatCrusade08' for running a great tournament!  I think everyone that took part will be looking forward to the next one ;-)
