Kirklees Wargames Club

Hello...

Welcome to the Kirklees Wargames Club blog and forum. We are a small group of table-top wargamers who get together weekly to play games which vary from Ancient/Medieval, through English Civil War, American War of Independence, American Civil War, and all things Napoleonic, plus WW2 to Sci-fi and fantasy, using scale-model armies on purpose-built terrain and scenery. We meet at Beaumont Park Visitors Centre, Beaumont Park Road, Huddersfield HD4 7AY on Monday evenings from 6.15pm. New members (over 18) are always welcome. You can just drop in or contact us on: kirkleeswargamesclub@gmail.com. Facebook: Kirklees Wargames Club and Twitter: @KirkleesWC

GdA2 - Russians attack Austrians and give them a damned good Paggering (but lose the game)

The attacking Russian (Robin and Guy) force broke several Austrian (Jeremy and Adrian) infantry battalions and cavalry regiments through judicious use of artillery, musket fire, and charges.

BUT the Russians failed to take the two key objectives before the night came to a close, and so the Austrians won the game...damn their eyes....

20mm WW2 - Operation Martlett - British vs Germans - Rapidfire 2 Rules

Some photos from our 'big' Christmas 2024 Club game, Operation Martlett, using Rapidfire 2 rules.

Lots of laughs, lots of blown-up AFV's (apart from one heroic Hanomag which refused to give up), good food and good company. Nine members involved in the game, never easy, and thanks to Adrian for organising.
