About Us
Welcome to the South Devon Games Club home page, we are a weekly club based in Kingskerswell, Devon where wargamers can get together to play and socialise.
We provide a venue for playing a variety of tabletop wargames. The club has a large supply of high quality boards and terrain which we are continually renewing. We also occasionally host events, including tournaments, campaigns, day trips to conventions and the occasional barbeque for our members!
We started out over 30 years ago as the Torquay Gamers Club, but several years ago members of the club reinvented it as the Newton Abbot based Beer & Bullets. With only a handful of members to begin with, we quickly gained popularity and outgrew our small room at near Forde Park, moving to our current premises.
Our club constitution, available here (.pdf), encourages friendly and social gaming in a relaxed atmosphere.
Membership
The standard entry cost is £2 for gaming or £1 for socialising and the first night is free, so feel free to come along! All revenue gained from entry costs is re-invested into the club to pay upkeep costs, buy and maintain terrain and equipment and to fund trips and social events.
Games Played
We play a variety of games both Games Workshop and otherwise. The most popular games currently being played at the club are Warhammer 40,000, Warhammer Historical - particularly Warhammer English Civil War and some Warhammer Fantasy Battles.

The Council
