The War Effort

The War Effort is a big fundraising tournament using the prize support that Warlord Games has graciously provided to drive ticket sales.
Command your forces for a vital local cause at The War Effort, a special Bolt Action: Third Edition single-day charity tournament launching on 1st November 2026 at Battleground Gaming UK (B30 3DR) to raise funds for Birmingham Hospice. This event features three action-packed rounds of tabletop combat where players will bring a 1,250-point army to battle across custom, thematic terrain using the latest Third Edition rules. To keep the focus entirely on community and fundraising, we welcome players of all experience levels—from battle-hardened veterans to those still mastering the new edition. Tickets are priced at £26, which directly covers your table costs at the venue while securing a direct donation to Birmingham Hospice, ensuring that every order dice you pull from the bag helps provide crucial palliative and end-of-life care across the Midlands.
The event runs from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, kicking off promptly following a morning briefing and concluding with a massive charity raffle featuring prizes graciously donated by Warlord Games. It promises to be a fantastic day of cinematic tabletop warfare, great sportsmanship, and community spirit all in aid of a brilliant cause. An initial wave of 20 tickets is available now, though further tickets could go on sale depending on player demand and venue table availability, so secure your beachhead early and grab your ticket today
