The Bulkington Wargaming Club
was established in 1998, following the closure of the Bedworth Wargaming
Club.
At the present time we have approximately
21 regular members, who play a variety of games, but primarily those produced
by Games Workshop.
Below you will find details of the
games that are played at the BWC but any kind of wargame are welcome,
new games are always greeted with enthusiasm.
We have a growing selection of Terrain,
mostly built by club members, but we do own a selection of modular terrain
by Purbeck Terrain Systems. We intend to get more commercial terrain when
the funds allow.
We have recently set up a Bring 'N
Buy that is open to all. If you have any old games, miniatures or anything
related to wargaming that you want to sell, bring it along...somebody
may be interested. (10% charge made to non BWC Members
on sale of items)
We do not charge a membership fee,
the club is open to all who are interested, however we do charge an attendance
fee of £1.50 (Free for your first visit), with membership being
achieved by regular attendance (see the Club Rules
for more information).
Membership gains certain privileges
at the club the most regular of these is the Members Raffle. On the first
meeting of every month every Member is entered into a free draw, the winner
receives a Games Workshop Gift Certificate, but if they are not there
to collect the prize another name is drawn out. As you can imagine attendance
gets a boost at the beginning of every month.

The Games we play
As we have mentioned the majority of the games played
at BWC are those produced by Games Workshop, but other games are
also enjoyed and welcomed.
- Warhammer Fantasy Battle - With the new edition
just released Warhammer has become "Flavour of the Month"
at the club, we are currently assembling a Vampire Counts Army for the
club, and we are running a Ladder League open to all.
- Warhammer 40,000 - One of the most popular games
at the club, there is almost always a game on.
- Warmaster - A very popular game here, between
the members of the club we can assemble all six armies (from the rules)
all at a minimum of 2000 points. The BWC put on a big Warmaster
game at Games Day 2000, you can read about it here.
- Necromunda - This game has died off a bit, but
games are played now and again.
- Mordheim - At one time everyone was playing
Mordheim, the club even made some purpose built terrain. Not many games
are played now, but every now and then it picks up.
- Battle Fleet Gothic - This game died off pretty
quickly, you still get the odd game played now an again.
- Blood Bowl - A regular favourite that gets aired
every couple of months.
- Full Thrust - A Starship Combat game by Ground
Zero Games that is relatively new at the club, but is gaining fans rapidly,
it has brought many of the Battle Fleet Gothic ships out of the closet.
The easy and fast game play has aided its poularity.
- Car Wars - A game of Car Combat on the freeways
of the not too distant future by Steve Jackson Games. This game
gets a good reception when ever it is played, but as only one person
runs it, this isn't often enough.
These are just a few of the games that we play.
