Welcome to our forums. The Bristol Big'Uns are a group of people who enjoy fantasy, science fiction and historical wargames. We tend to play mostly table-top wargames but you will sometimes see CCGs, CMGs, RPGs or board games. If this sounds like a hobby you currently enjoy then why not come along. The club is based at Iron Acton, between Bristol and Yate, in the recently refurbished Parish Hall and is held Sunday evenings from 6 pm until 10 pm. There are tables and chairs available plus various sized scenic mats and terrain for table-top wargames. Please bring with you any drinks or snacks that you require.

Could be good fun doing a slow grow club campaign once the new book hits, any excuses to start a new army ;0) .

At least a kickstarter would give you more time to get those games in!

That it would, but I guess Mantic are both flush enough with money to do releases without it and trying to make friends with the FLGSs again. neither of which is really a bad thing.

True, whilst I think Kickstarters are a great way to raise funding I can see how they could also be a lot of extra hassle compared to just making the thing and selling the thing (when you have enough cash and an established product)
