Cambridge University Wargaming Society (CUWGS). The purpose of the society is to provide a venue for regular meetings of wargamers, and to promote wargaming in Cambridge.

What is Wargaming?

Wargaming is, literally, games of war. We play strategic games which simulate battles. These could be small skirmishes, dogfights between starships, epic battles between Orcs and Elves, recreations of the Civil War, or just about anything else that you can imagine. Most games played on a tabletop, with card counters or metal figures representing the troops, and with each player taking control of one army. However, unlike chess, most wargames incorporate a random element, such as rolling dice, to simulate random effects such as the weather or the morale of the troops.

If you interested in strategy games, history or historical re-enactment, you are likely to enjoy wargaming. If you like the idea of being able to recreate a battle scene from your favourite book or movie, or think you can do better than Napolean, why not come along to one of our meetings? We are always happy to demonstrate the games, and to teach new players.

Collectable Card Games

In the past the society also catered for Collectable Card Games (CCGs). At the moment we don’t have anyone who comes along to games nights to play CCGs.
