I have been away for a few months and have not attended club due to other commitments, however I took this opportunity to try to play Escape from Goblin Town with my son... 

He had Thorins company, Gandalf and Radagast, whilst I had several warband of Goblins with the Great Goblin/Goblin King.

My son loved how easy the goblins died and how Thorin Oakenshield smashed the not so Great Goblin.

I know this game was hugely out balanced in the favour of my sons dwarves... but thats the price I had to pay to get him to play!

We often play Hobbit/LOTR SBG - both skirmish battles and walk through the books/films each Monday night and WotR on club nights.

We welcome anyone interested in playing The Hobbit SBG, Lotr SBG, WotR or any warhammer/40K battle - why not let us know so that we can arrange some starter battles, like the one above, or if you/your club want to challenge us. We have all the LOTR/Hobbit SBG figures and LOTR scenery from the Mines of Moria to the siege of Helms Deep, snow fields to desert boards ready and waiting.  

Why not join our watch list for updates and look out for Easters weekend battle event... two days of fighting in the ruins of Osgiliath, Helms Deep and Far Harad, you cannot afford to miss it.
Feel free to email us to come along or arrange a game.
