This is where we tell who is doing what in the way of new Models, Armies, Conversions etc. Drop by from Time to Time to see the latest News.
Well lots of different games are being played now ( September 2013) as well as our old favourites.
Some Role Playing Games, Man-O-War & Wings of Glory WW2. Above is a pic of some of the action from a recent WW2 game which was a reinactment of the battle of the Bismarck Sea which is between New Britian & New Guinea. A force of Americans & Australians attacked a Japanese Convoy bringing reinforcements to their forces in New Guinea,
So about time for another update! Been waaaaay too long but another spell in hospital & lots of dramas on the home front but everything now under control! New Roster for 2013 has been uploaded.
Whats happening at the Club regarding Games? Well we now play Magic--the Gathering & Malifaux as well as all our favourites.
Wings of War has been relaunched by Ares Games & new model early War Aircraft & 2 Giant Bombers have been released. More models due out at Christmas 2012. There is also a new Rules & Accessories pack available for those who do not have the old Nexus Rule Book & this new one contains all the rules from the various Box sets in one book. Very Handy!
Ares have also released a new series of WW2 Aircraft for those who like the later War. Pics of last Friday's game (9th November) of an Aerodrome Raid follows. Now that was just so much fun blowing up all those Hun Aircraft on the ground plus one in the Air!

Posted May 1st 2011: Apologies for no updates for so long but unfortunately I had a Computer Crash due to a Virus & then a spell in Hospital!
Well never mind back at the Gaming Table now!
The next Games night will be on WEDNESDAY 11th May due to the Church needing the Hall on our usual Friday night,
Then back to the Second & 4th Fridays for the rest of the year.
A new Roster will be uploaded once I scan it into Jpeg. This has now been done.
On the Gaming front the latest Craze to hit the Club is Wings of War a card based WW1 Aviation Game played with 1/144 scale models. This game is cheap to get into as the Aircraft can generally cost under $20 each. Another attraction is quick set up time & NO Dice!
A couple of pics are attached to show what it looks like!

So the latest info is that both Glen Ferrier & Glen Downs have been buying & making LARGE models! Glenn F has a Trygon Prime in progress & news from the Warp is that Glenn D has finally become a Greater Daemon of Tzeentch in the form of the Forge World Lord of Change. Just wait for those two to meet on the Battle Field.
Meanwhile Chris Halverson is adding more Plague Bearers to his Corrupted Imperial Guard Army & in a move worthy of the Alpha Legion is also working up a squad of Grey Knights (?!??).
Barry H has a number of things on the go. A new Hellhound for his trusty 597th Valhallans plus a Forge World Hydra Flak Tank. That will teach those Chaos Scum to bring Flyers to Apocolypse Games!!
No doubt alerted by the Inquisition of the Warp signature of a Greater Daemon he has also commenced a Mk 1V Grey Knights Drednought with Psycannon & is adding another 3 GKs to bring each squad up to a total of 7. There is also a rumour of a GK Landraider Redeemer being built on Titan for the Chapter.
Andrew the Ambo has been busy making some great Scenary pieces & we cant wait to see his "all Electric" Power Station completed.
Barsey will no doubt be looking forward to the new Blood Angels Codex which will bring his beloved Angels up to & probably better than the Vanilla Codex Marines whilst Charles Henry has been using heaps of Plasticard to convert more models for his Iron Hands. Just dont mention Psycannons & Legion of the Damned in the same breath if talking to Charles.
Well thats all the news at present. Drop by again in a few weeks & catch up on all the News.

3rd May2010: Rumour has it that a HUGE Apocalypse Game is being planned for one day over the June Long Weekend. 6 Players (3 a side) with total points about 6500 to 7000. As a preliminary a smaller Apocalypse Game is proposed for the next Friday Games night to carry over to the next morning to finish in time for the Training Day on the Saturday.
The Grey Knights did indeed have a Landraider Redeemer arrive by Bulk Transport but alas it did not stop a narrow victory to Charles H's Combined Chaos force of Khorn, 1000 Sons & other assorted Scum. The Redeemer did however suvive the Battle to fight again. Grey Knights record so far is 1 Win & 2 losses. The last one by ONE model! (mutters "the Emperor was Not Protecting!")
Brendan N finally appeared from out of the Warp with some brilliant new Space Wolves plus some others in progress for the Golden Daemon Competition & Rowan is concentrating on Necromunda but helped out some of the younger members on the last Games Night. Well done, Mate!

On the Monday of the June Long Weekend 7 club members arrived at Barry's Farm to play a 6600 point per side Apocalypse Game. Glen D, Sam & Barsey were the Evil Trio with a combined Army of Necrons & 'nids. Seems the noise of the Battle between the Imperium & the Nids woke the Neccies from their slumber & they decided to join in the Slaughter & Slaughter it was! The Imperials consisted of Chris' Imperial Guard, Barry's Sisters supported by some Leeman Russ Tanks & a Basilisk & Brendan & Reon's Space Wolves. After 4 turns the game was balanced on a Knife edge with both sides having equal Objectives either Held or Contested however with time for one more turn Brendans Heroc Wolf Lord & one suviving Terminator were overcome by overwhelming Odds of Necrons, Hive Tyrant & Guard plus Warriors so the Game went to the Forces of Evil! Last we heard from the Gallant Imperial Guard Major still alive was a urgent Vox call to the Imperial Fleet for EXTERMINATUS to be visited on the Planet rather than have the Tyranids spawn & grow in strength. What Courage!
Next Saturday 19th June will be the Training Day at the Church Hall so parents bring along your young Wargamers for a helpful day of instruction!
Next Games Night is on Wednesday 23rd June which is quite early in the month so dont get caught out by the early date of the 4th Wednesday. Hope to see you all there.
