Central London Wargames Club
Unofficial Club Motto - "It Smacks of Incompetence"
CLUB NEWS:
The Club now meets almost 2 nights each week, on each and every Tuesday at the Cock Tavern, 23 Phoenix Rd, NW1 1HB and on Wednesdays at The Perseverance in Shroton Street, Ladbroke Grove/Marylebone;
The Cock is on the corner of Charlton St, which runs off the Euston Rd. There is loads of room, and Tuesdays tend to feature larger group games often using Ian's own King of The Battlefield 18th Century rules, ACW/Napoleonic naval, as well as DBR/DBMM/FoG.
The Perseverance is at the Marylebone Station end of Shroton Street. Here we have room for 5 tables and it features quite a bit of FoG , plus increasing amounts of other stuff.
We have a Yahoo Group for club messages and arranging games which you can join. Its the Virtual LondonA Group.
To arrange a game or if you have any questions please or
Either way the key fact is that both places we meet are PUBS, and technically we aren't even a club, as we have no membership fee, no committee, no club constitution and none of that boring political stuff that goes with it. Did I mention that there is a bar ?
Tuesdays Pub is the Cock Tavern which is near Euston Station. It is outside the Congestion zone, but that finishes at 630pm anyway, and there is also parking nearby. There is also (this) website at www.clwg.org.uk
Wednesdays Pub is the Perseverance . It is also outside the Congestion zone, but that finishes at 630pm anyway. The area has rather harsh residents parking restrictions which run until around 9pm however metered parking is free after 6:30pm, so be careful if coming by car and pick a metered spot. It is very close to Marylebone Station

We meet at about 7-ish, play most things, and there's usually about 4-5 games going on of various sorts. Ancients is just about the most popular, although there can be everything from ACW ships to Space ships, and both nights we have room for more players and more games...
Some of us do enter lots of competitions, and most of us enter some - but when we do we all work very hard at not being taken seriously.... when "on the road" we usually can be seen sporting a seasonal, unique and highly desirable range of self-depreciatory t-shirts.
Unusually for a wargames club, there are very few of us who could objectively or accurately be described as "fat". We also have an unusual distribution of facial hair, in that it that the hirsuteness of our membership roughly mirrors that of the general population. The B.O. however is still a problem.....
That's it!
