PAWS has moved.

The English DBA Open 2014 will be held on Sunday 19th October 2014.

See News below

The Portsmouth and Allied Wargames Society, PAWS, is a friendly little wargaming (and occasionally boardgaming) club meeting on Saturday afternoons in Copnor, Portsmouth.

We have a room at the Stacey Community Centre just about every Saturday, from 2:00pm to about 7:00pm.
A streetmap showing the location can be found here.

We regularly play all sorts of historical miniatures games (not just DBA), from the beginnings of warfare to the industrial age; historical and "Euro" boardgames; and we have been known to do the odd naval game.

Figures are often available to borrow, so if you want to learn one of the rule sets we play, you don't need to buy before you try. Alternatively you could try and convert some of us to your favourite set.

Games tend to be arranged between two or more players beforehand, but it is often possible to join in with a friendly game, and there are occasionally 'off the cuff' games arranged between whoever has turned up.

If you would like further details, directions, or would just like to arrange a game, then you can email us at paws_sec@yahoo.co.uk, or look for our details in Miniature Wargames 'Club Contacts' section.
