Weekend Wargames

Our Weekend Wargames simulate World War II battles or campaigns; from all theatres; on land, sea and air.  These wargames are scheduled on weekends close to the anniversary of the real event, to help the public remember the sacrifices made at the time.  All of our Weekend Wargames are compiled by volunteer hobbyists in our region, who donate their time, game materials and expertise to run these games for the museum visitors.

Weekend wargames participation is free to museum visitors.

First Thursdays

On the First Thursday of every month, experienced wargamers gather to plan upcoming Weekend Wargames.  As these will be played on weekends by brand-new players, we often test the upcoming game to determine what rules need editing or simplifying.
We also spend time painting miniatures, building maps and creating terrain, or planning upcoming events.
