Mordheim & Necromunda

Mordheim and Necromunda are similar games, the main difference being the former is set in the Warhammer world, and the latter in the Warhammer 40K universe. Each player has a warband or gang, and fight various skirmishes to improve the skills of the warband/gang members, and to increase the rating of the warband/gang as a whole. After each game, income is acquired and can be spent on recruitment, weapons or equipment. There are some subtle differences between the two games, In Necromunda, gang members are all individuals, where as in Mordheim there are Heroes (individuals) and Henchmen (groups of 1 or more lesser mortals). In Necromunda, skills learnt are determined by dice rolls (dependant on gang type and the type of gang member), whereas in Mordheim they can be chosen by the player. Both are good games, and can be played in under an hour, meaning you can squeeze in a couple on a club night! Both sets of rules can be downloaded from the Specialist Games website for free.

Bloodbowl

Blood Bowl is a great game. Loads of fun, entertaining, the rules are available online for free, and only takes at most 2 hours to play. You will only ever need a maximum of 16 figures (the maximum size of a team), and a pitch to play on. It is essentially American football, but with loads more carnage (team members can die – especially if they are Halflings or Goblins!). It can be played as a one-off game, or in an on-going league system, provided someone is prepared to do the (minimal) book-keeping this entails. In my opinion, it is the best game Games Workshop have made!

 

There are several members of the club with teams, and a league is always going on. So might be time for your team to dust off the boots and polish up the knuckle dusters!

Uncharted Seas
The Uncharted Seas is a fast paced, action packed game of naval tactical combat set in a world of high fantasy. Using superb resin and white metal miniatures, and controlled by fast and easy to learn rules, the game allows you to wage war with fantastical squadrons of mighty warships. Choose from one of several races, including the Iron Dwarfs with their steam powered ironclads, Orc Raiders with their grotesque machines of war, the ever powerful Dragon Lords, an ancient race of magical seafarers, Imperial Humans hell bent on grabbing as much land as they can and the Thaniras Elves with their sleek ships of war.Evil Shroud Mages in their steam churches, Bone Griffons in their ancient oar ships and pestilent wales

Warmachine
WARMACHINE is a fast-paced and aggressive 30mm tabletop miniatures battle game set in the steam-powered fantasy world of the Iron Kingdoms. Players take on the role of elite soldier-sorcerers known as warcasters. Though warcasters are formidable combatants on their own, their true strength lies in their magical ability to control and coordinate mighty warjacks—massive steam-powered combat automatons that are the pinnacle of military might in the Iron Kingdoms. Players collect, assemble, and paint fantastically detailed models representing the varied warriors, machines, and creatures in their armies. This is steam-powered miniatures combat, and your tabletop will never be the same!

Hordes
Set in the wilds of the Iron Kingdoms, HORDES is WARMACHINE’s feral twin. In this award-winning, fast-paced, 30mm tabletop miniatures game, players jump into the action controlling powerful battle-wizards known as warlocks. Warlocks are formidable combatants in their own right, but their true strength is drawn from their synergy with packs of savage warbeasts that allow them to contend on equal footing with the greatest modern armies of the Iron Kingdoms. Players collect, assemble, and paint fantastically detailed models representing the varied warriors, minions, and beasts in their hordes. This is monstrous miniatures combat, and your tabletop will never be the same!

Magic the Gathering

In the Magic game, you play the role of a planeswalker—a powerful wizard who fights other planeswalkers for glory, knowledge, and conquest. Your deck of cards represents all the weapons in your arsenal. It contains the spells you know and the creatures you can summon to fight for you.

Trading card games like the Magic: The Gathering TCG combine collectable cards with a strategy game. You don't know what you'll get in a Magic booster pack. You just start a collection and trade with other players to get the cards you want.

The best part about a trading card game is that it's always changing. You design and build your own unique decks, and each Magic game you play is different. New Magic expansions are released a few times a year, and each new expansion brings new ways to stupefy and defeat your opponents
