THE GAMES WE PLAY​

We play a wide range of roleplaying games and board games. We usually have at least three roleplaying games running at the same time and we try and plan them a bit in advance so everyone knows what their in next (and so the GMs can plan...)

Our roleplaying games run in 'cycles' so we can start and finish them around the same time - this makes it easy for everyone to play different games with different people. It works really well.

Every five weeks we pause for a board games and one-shot RPG session. This is a great time for new people to drop in and play some games. 

What's happening when?

We schedule all our upcoming events on Meetup.

​There you'll find more details about each game that's running over the next few weeks. It's also a great way to chat with us if you're interesting in joining.

We love to hear from other gamers. You can also contact us directly via our Contact page. 

Quick view

If you just want an idea of what we play, here's what roleplaying games we've played recently. You can select a game title for more details about each system. 

Recently Played...

Alien
The mission was a manhunt, the objectives clear: track down four fugitives, recover any assets they may have made off with, and keep ‘em all out of enemy hands. Nothing you couldn’t handle. Of course, now there’s something else too. Something much worse. Something out there hates you. Hates everyone. Something big and ugly. Something with metal teeth. And you’re pretty sure it ain’t alone.

Yeah, the mission was supposed to be a simple manhunt. Instead it turned out to be just another glorious day in the corps.
Dungeons & Dragons 5e: The Serpent's Stone
Your village was attacked by... something, leaving your families and all the other inhabitants petrified, transformed into cold, unfeeling stone.

You must travel to the Valley of the Stone Serpent to seek out the creature that has caused this, and attempt to undo the curse!
91 Kingdoms
You are the disciples of the order of eternal truth. You are sworn to keep the flame of civilisation alive. To destroy corruption wherever you find it - be it supernatural or mundane. You are all that keeps the wolves of chaos from the gates of the 91 kingdoms.

This is a dark fantasy game focused on investigating conspiracies and supernatural threats. It has a feel very similar to the Warhammer Fantasy setting  and uses a system loosely based on PBTA.
Exalted - The hundred kingdoms
It has been almost three years since the rulers of Huan Sho defeated the titan of the Godless Lands, an ancient guardian titan buried in the middle of a defensive citadel.  But Creation never rests, and whirls ever more towards chaos and destruction. 

Amidst this chaos, the Solars of Huan Sho must defend all they have fought for - will they succeed, returning Creation to the glory and light of the Unconquered Sun, or will they fall beneath the ancient might of the Steel Sun?
Fate Core
You hand-picked few, highly capable volunteers must venture forth into the nuclear devastated land that was once England and secure the future of your home!

Keep your wits about you and your laser carbine charged as you negotiate with battle-hardened survivors, encounter malfunctioning automatons, overcome terrible irradiated beasts and rediscover wonders of a lost age.
Explore, Rebuild, Protect & Survive!
Vampire: The Masqurade
You are a vampire, struggling for survival, supremacy, and your own fading humanity—afraid of what you are capable of, and fearful of the inhuman conspiracies that surround you. As a vampire you suffer the pangs of the Hunger, the relentless and terrible thirst for human blood. If you refuse to deal with it, it will overcome your mind and drive you to terrible acts to slake it. You walk this razor's edge every night.
The Dracula Dossier (Night's Black Agents)
​A team of ex-covert operatives with a good reputation can get a lot of work if they don't ask too many questions. But too much discretion can be a bad thing. Now, caught between a mysterious conspiracy and an ancient, impossible nightmare, will the secrets you uncover help you survive, or will they guarantee an untimely death.... or worse?

Night’s Black Agents brings the GUMSHOE engine to the spy thriller genre, combining the propulsive paranoia of movies like Ronin and The Bourne Identity with supernatural horror straight out of Bram Stoker. 
Tales from the Loop
​The landscape was full of machines and scrap metal connected to the facility in one way or another. If you put your ear to the ground, you could hear the heartbeat of the Loop – the purring of the Gravitron, the central piece of engineering magic that was the focus of the Loop’s experiments. 

Now, you can step into the amazing world of the Loop. In this roleplaying game in the vein of E.T. and Stranger Things, you'll play teenagers solving mysteries connected to the Loop.

Board / card Games

We've got many board games and card games. Some are owned by the club, many more are owned by our members. Here's just a few we enjoy. You can click the image for a larger version and click the title to open the game listing on Board Game Geek.
Spirit Island
A cooperative, settler-destruction strategy game.

Players are different spirits of the land, each with their own unique elemental powers, forced to defend their island home from colonizing Invaders spreading blight and destruction. Work with your fellow spirits and the Dahan (local islanders) to increase your power and drive the invading colonists from your island in this deep and complex area-control game!
Sentinels of the Multiverse
A cooperative, fixed-deck card game with a comic book flavour. Each player plays as one of ten heroes, against one of four villains, and the battle takes place in one of four different dynamic environments.

A team of heroes, all with impressive powers and abilities stand between the world and the forces of evil. Will you help them? Answer the call to protect the multiverse!
Dead of Winter
A meta-cooperative psychological survival game. Players are working together toward one common victory condition — but for each individual player to achieve victory, he must also complete his personal secret objective.

Certain games could end with all players winning, some winning and some losing, or all players losing. Work toward the group's goal, but don't get walked all over by a loudmouth who's looking out only for his own interests!
Lanterns: The Harvest Festival
Lanterns: The Harvest Festival is a tile placement game set in imperial China.  Players act as artisans decorating the palace lake with floating lanterns.  The artisan who earns the most honor before the festival starts wins the game. 
Carcassonne
In Carcassonne, players build the area surrounding this impressive city, one tile at a time. They then place a follower on fields, cities, roads or monasteries in order to score as many points as possible. These followers will become knights,monks, farmers and thieves, depending on where they are placed. No matter their followers' function, the player who will most cleverly use their followers will win the game...
Flash Point: Fire Rescue
A cooperative game of fire rescue. Work as firefighters attempting to rescue victims from a raging building fire. As you work, the fire is spreading to other parts of the building, causing structural damage and possibly blocking off pathways. Extinguish fires, avoid flash overs, explosions and building collapse to save the victims trapped inside...
Lords of Waterdeep
Take on the role of one of the masked Lords of Waterdeep, secret rulers of the city. Through your agents, you recruit adventurers to go on quests on your behalf, earning rewards and increasing your influence over the city. Expand the city by purchasing new buildings that open up new actions on the board, and hinder – or help – the other lords by playing Intrigue cards to enact your carefully laid plans.
