Society Meeting 26/09/2026

Andy rounds up yesterday’s meeting with some photos.

A mainly Sci-Fi and Fantasy day today, although there was a large historical game as well.

We’ll lead with Alan’s Star Wars X-Wing game, featuring a couple of large(ish) ships and several fighters (above)

Tony and Phil continued their Glacial Quest of the Ringbearer campaign, including the skirmish at the Ford of Bruinen and crossing the Pass of Caradhras.

This meeting’s mix was a little unusual, there are normally more historical games than ScFi or Fantasy.

You can see what’s planned for future meetings in our diary for 2026 and 2027, the latter is looking a little sparse at the moment, but it will soon fill up.
