NLS Presents: Bridge over the River Wensum – A Bolt Action Slow Grow League

Bridge over the River Wensum is a slow grow, escalation league running over 4 months. It sees players ramping their forces up from 500 points to 1250 by the final month. Each player is required to play 2 games per round. Players score points for winning battles and painting their armies, with the aim to have a fully painted army by the end of the league and having had a lot of fun along the way. At the end of the league, the player with the highest combined score between hobby and battle points will win the coveted overall Supreme Commander Award. There are also awards for Best General, Best Hobbyist, Best Painted and Best Themed armies alongside that most important of all awards, The Wooden Spoon!

The aim of the league was to grow the Bolt Action community within the club and, with 14 participants, it seems to have succeded! Everyone has had a lot of fun so far and, with 1 more round of games to play, there is still a lot to play for.
