The Oxford Wargames Society was founded in 1967 we are a miniature table top club for wargamers in Oxfordshire.
We meet most Mondays and one (usually the second) Sunday a month at at the Wolvercote Village Hall. Monday meetings start at 6:00PM and are usually finished by 10:00PM. Sunday meetings start at 9:00AM and are finished by 6:00PM.
We currently charge £2.50 for a Monday and £4.00 for a Sunday session. First visit to the club is free.
We
play almost any set of rules, currently we have a large contingent of FOG
players. But we also play Warhammer, Warmaster, Warmaster Ancients, 6mm
Napoleonic's (our own rule set), WWII, Renaissance etc, as well as our own
rule sets for
many periods. Click here for a more complete list
of what we play
Each year on our December Sunday we have a local inter club competition with a round robin format. The last competition we had games on the following themes using our own rules, Russian Civil War, WWII MTB's attacking a convoy, B17's being attacked by the Luftwaffe, and Boromir protecting the Hobbits from three different competing bands of Orcs.
If you don't have any of your own figures, don't worry, we have enough for a second club,and lend them out to other club members on a regular basis, so just come along and join in.
