Introduction
What's New
 
Wyre Forest Wargames Club is a small club dedicated to all forms of wargaming. We are based in Kidderminster, WORCS., United Kingdom, although our members come from all over the surrounding area.

We meet on Sundays from 10:30 to 19:00. Generally the younger members play role playing, Sci-Fi and Fantasy games in the morning. While the older members stagger in at 14:00 and do various historical games. We play all sorts of things and we are open to any suggestions.

We meet at Chester Road Sports Club, Chester Road North, KIDDERMINSTER, Worcestershire. We use the function and snooker rooms there to play our games. This gives us a large area and plenty of tables, as well as the facilities of the bar.

Also new for the GNW are scenarios for Holowczyn (1708), Palkane (1713) and Storkyro (1714).

In addition we have great pleasure in hosting a series of articles by Andy Callan. These consist of a number of innovative rules for the American War of Independence, American Civil War river warfare and Dark Age infantry battles. Click here to view them.
