Warhammer 40k Escalation League

The committee is excited to announce that GUGS is starting a 40k Escalation League from the 7th of February. This means that you start out by assembling and using a 500pt force, and then build it up every month by 250pt installments. This is a great way to get into the hobby relatively cheaply, as you can build up an army at a reasonable pace, and use it in games against other people at the same level. 


RULESPACK CAN BE FOUND HERE


We took a quick survey of interested players last Saturday, and found that over a half-dozen put their names into the hat, giving us a great number to begin with - but we'd love for more people to take part! If you have always wanted to try 40k, but were daunted by the sheer scale of the game, then come along and take part - we can help you learn the game, practice your painting, and join a hugely enjoyable hobby!

We are back for the new year!

And to celebrate this, we are launching straight into the festivities with some events for you.

This week the university is having their Refreshers week, an opportunity for students to join the societies that they missed out on in semester one. We are having a couple of events to celebrate this, and hope to use the opportunity to gain lotsa new members, as well as kickstart some more wargaming.

Saturday - Wargaming

On Saturday 17th we will be having a wargaming focused day. We want people of all skills and experiences to come down, try out this fun hobby, and hopefully kickstart a new army. We'll have some demo games on (both Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team), and some tables will be set up to allow people to play with their own armies. Saturday GUGS were traditionally used for wargaming, and we'd like to make this a big thing once more.

We will also be discussing our proposed Escalation campaign for 40k, which is where a group of people build up their armies in small bite-sized chunks - 250 points a month, for example - thus spreading the cost and effort required, and ensuring that they have opponents at the same points level. If you'd like to take part in this, make sure to come down and tell us!

Tuesday - Roleplaying

On Tuesday 20th we'll have some one-shots ready for anyone that wants to give our wonderful hobby of roleplaying a try. For all those who have been considering taking part, but don't want to commit to something without trying it first, come on down! We will have D&D, Firefly and other games on offer.
