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.

Re: Death on a Dark Continent
I did play it once i think. I have masses of figures both painted and unpainted for the period although the Masai are also a warband army for War & Conquest and Warhammer Ancient Battles before that 😃
One of my favourite armies to put on the table regardless of rules
Kind regards

Re: Death on a Dark Continent
Nice one John, looking forward to it. Do I need to build a list or do you have one already prepared?
Cheers

Re: Death on a Dark Continent
I'd suggest you build your own 24 pts list. It's an enjoyable part of the rule set.
I have enough toys for any build you devise, so don't worry about that.
