Strategy Club members at the Large Battle Event this week<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Strategy Club took to the battlefields at a special ‘large battle’ event that took place in school over two afternoons earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event gave club members the opportunity to play large games, which are not normally possible at the after-school sessions held every Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students enjoyed some diverse games based in Tolkien’s Middle Earth, the world of Star Wars, and Games Workshop’s Age of Sigmar and 40,000 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The popular club has been running in the school for over 30 years and has introduced hundreds of students to military history, tactical thinking and a variety of craft and modelling skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Clayton, who leads the club, explained: \u201cGames are played with painted figures on a model landscape and a complex set of rules governs movement, shooting, melee and morale.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis week\u2019s event was a huge success and the boys thoroughly enjoyed the longer sessions to really get into the games and hone their strategic battle skills.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights of the Strategy Club Event<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
