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.

Club Opens
Warning: understatement of the year coming up - I haven’t prepared an after-action report of a club evening for quite some time…
On entry to the club, I was presented with a Star Wars Legion game with Dave Prowse’s alter ego striding forcefully across the table, intent on doing nasty things to the rebellion.
I then moved to the Burrows & Badgers game, where one force was led by a rather tough looking shrew!
On more familiar ground I some spent time taking in a 3rd edition Kings of War game, where the Empire of Dust faced down an army of Abyssal Dwarves.
I then took to the skies with an intriguing WWII aerial combat –Wide Blue Yonder. The playing area was 2’x2’. Amazing for this type of battle.
It was so good to hear the rattle of dice once more.
Cheers
If you want to get ahead in life - get an axe.
