Try here, look under the leagues and see if there is anything near and try to reach out. its mad how popular the game is and how hard it is to find people who play it.

Winner of our first award for the weekend (we start early at the Welsh Open) is Charles Robinson!

Spreading a little positivity by complimenting the Dragon Wagon will get you in our good books (and earn you a prize, it seems) 😇

Enjoy the OG. The White Dwarf himself!

Thanks to all the support of our wonderful players, the Welsh Open raised £1,400 for charity this weekend, with funds going to Children's Cancer and Leukemia.

We are so grateful to everyone for contributing their hard-earned funds for such a worthy cause!

A favourite for those that have attended Blackout previously, and an award that resonates with us well in Wales, the Caledor Memorial Award (for best dragon) went to Tom Matthews with his gorgeous blood-soaked Vhordrai!

Cleanest Gamer(s) tied at 4/5 votes each for Glen Chalk and Dominik de Cassan! A fantastic achievement for both getting that many votes.

Glen took home the custom WarVault, provided Pro Painted Studios. We'll be passing a trophy to Dominik as he was the highest placed player.

The player-voted "Well Tidy" Award (overall best army across all measures) went to Tony Kirby with his SEAHAUNT! 👻

You can tell that Tony has put so much time into these conversions and the display board - was a joy to see it on the table.

Fantastic weekend was had at @aoswelshopen.bsky.social I'm over the moon to have taken home joint cleanest player along with the event winner. Gromm was hit and miss, slaying a mighty carnasuar. Vordrai however was a cowardly vampire, he ran away to the other end of the table from the heroic dwarf.

After day 1 @aoswelshopen.bsky.social I'm either 1-1-1 or 2-1, who knows?? But despite what @moashraf.bsky.social may say, Gromm Slighthammer completely slayed the mighty carnasuar. Been brilliant fun, looking forward to day 2.

Glen the trollslayer @asperon.bsky.social · Aug 8

This is Grimm Slighthammer, with an aether-powered combat rig and the grudgebearer trait, he has one mission this weekend at @aoswelshopen.bsky.social , To kill as much as possible in honour of the final run out for the KO faction pack. Upset him, and in the book you go, can't wait.
