This is not a group for serious historical wargames. It also isn't for hobby-style miniatures games. It is squarely in the middle: all of the fun of making your own force and then rolling tons of dice to blow up someone else's without any of the expense (or historical bickering).

Games like Starmada, Wizard Kings, Epic 40K, and Warmaster are incredible games either buried in obscurity or buried under hundreds of dollars of overhead. Either in one shot games or epic campaigns, no other genre compares to the emotion of choosing your own force and setting it loose.

How can this be? Foamboard, labels, and cardstock. I'll even make all armies if you don't have Photoshop.

So sign up for afternoons of laughter and explosions and leave your paint brushes and theories on the ethnicity of Cleopatra at home.

Want to attend?

Dice House Games is just West of the 57 on Chapman. Lots of parking in the grocery store lot.

Come on out for a demo of these games:
Starmada - Admirality Edition
Epic Armageddon
Warmaster
Field of Glory
Wizard Kings
Battleground

Being able to play miniatures games with foamcore pieces is totally the way to go. All the depth of a wargame but without the stupid overhead whenever you want to make a change to your army.

      I'm a 33 year old eurogame fan, but I would like to find some folks to play low-commitment theme-based miniatures games with (i.e. not Warhammer). I am interested in Battlelore, Descent, or similar games, but I'm flexible.

      Howdy, I'm a miniatures player who has long dreamed of an easier way...love the gaming aspect, but don't care for buying and painting 50+ minis, only to have the group dissolve or move on. Looking forward to the group, Joe

      I'm a married 32 year old computer programmer who has tons of people to play Euro games with, but who can't find someone who isn't afraid of rolling dice.
