Following on from the success of SWS's inagural painting competition at Marcher.........we are doing it again!
Last year showed that there is a very high level of skill in members' painted minis.
A great day of gaming at the club today. Six of us took part in a games day with a few missing due to the weather.
The day was all about giving everyone a chance to try their lists for the upcoming tournament in February.
With 6 completely different armies, Men of the West, Khazad-dûm, Last Alliance, Corsair Fleet, Isengard and The Shire all on show!
To me this is what makes the game so good - all playing different armies and heros!
My army was my first army I ever owned, Last Alliance. My games today were against Corsair Fleets and Men of the West. Two totally different games but both very tactical!
There are only 2 spaces left for the upcoming tournament next month. There will be prizes for first and second place and a prize for the best painted army.

On Sunday 14th December, nine Old World players braved the dreaded Super Flu (seven last-minute dropouts!) and gathered in the World of Legend for our very first Old World Game Day.
The aim was simple: bring together a group of like-minded The Old World players and start building a scene at SWS. We kept things deliberately casual, with plenty of time for each round and a relaxed, supportive atmosphere.
Players took part in two games. The first was Upon the Field of Glory, followed by King of the Hill. Both missions were selected for having fixed six-round limits, with victory determined solely by Primary objectives to keep scoring straightforward. The group included an even mix of experienced players and those returning to Warhammer Fantasy.
A great time was had by all, with light-hearted prizes on offer for:
Final standings were:
We’re now planning our next event: a 1,500-point tournament for up to 16 players on 8th March 2026. If you’re interested in taking part, please get in touch!
Adam's arranged a MESBG day today (Sunday 7th) so the club will be open. If you haven't booked already, feel free to turn up and join in the spectacle of Middle Earth heroes and villains as they battle it out.
Tables are likely to be available for other games.
