This year’s Casual Campaigns will use a variation of the recently released Road to Valhalla campaign system for Bolt Action and Konflikt ’47, allowing participants to play a series of games. Throughout the retreat they will grow the size of their armies using a unit randomizer to vary unit selection and morale. Unique challenges will be presented to the participants as they receive units and fight against force compositions that they wouldn’t see during normal play sessions. The campaign will have a narrative, a total of 19 unique missions to be assigned and features three battles shaped by the participant’s efforts throughout the event. As the retreat gets closer a campaign packet will be made available digitally to attendees, with printed campaign packets on hand during the event to facilitate army creation and tabletop play.

one of our toughest players in the region available for a full on player versus player game. And yes,
believe it or not, we will be offering prizes to scenario winners, etc.

Operation Proximate Causes
2026-05-02 10:00 - 20:00 | Thunder Forge Gaming,, 30 E Main St, Tipp City, 45371, United States
The causes of World War II have been given considerable attention by historians. The immediate precipitating event was the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany on September 1, 1939, and the subsequent declarations of war on Germany made by Britain and France. During this time the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Soviet–Japanese border war was occurring in East Asia. Then on 10 May 1940, Germany invaded Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and parts of France.
Event Summary:
Operation Proximate Causes is a three game thematic tournament event focused on thematic armies, giving players an opportunity to try out forces they wouldn’t usually get a chance to use at other organized tournaments. This event will be set in the Early War era (1939-1941), with tables set up to represent various themes and battles during that timeframe.

UEA Historical Wargame Taster - Bolt Action!
2026-05-02 12:00 - 17:00 | JSC 2.02, Chancellors Dr, Norwich, Norfolk, NR4 7TQ, United Kingdom
We’re looking at using this taster event as a way to get players into the world of Historical wargaming and bty extent, Bolt Action. At our university, Warhammer and its variations are the main game systems played so presenting a cheaper (and more fun!) alternative to get more people into the hobby. – If you can’t get new people, it becomes a ticking timebomb.
We’ve divided our event into two distinct parts, Firstly we are running a semi-competitive tournament for those who have already played the system to be able to roll some dice as well as using our support prize to give a 1st place. Secondly, we’ll be running a winter thematic beginners table, where each person will control a platoon and learn how to play the game in a friendly environment and if there is enough time, play a full game to confirm. This event will also be used by myself as an idea of how successful Bolt Action will be at this university, as there are no other people planning to run it.

2026-05-06 17:00 - 2026-09-02 17:00 | Gravesend Gamers Guild, The Three Daws Town Pier, Gravesend, Kent, DA11 0BJ, United Kingdom
Gravesend Gamers Guild presents a bolt action slow grow league. Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake! Join us, as we take commanders on a four-month journey from green recruits to battle-hardened veterans. Whether you’re a seasoned general or just mustering your first platoon, this event is built to be welcome to all skill levels. Each month, players will fight two games against randomly assigned opponents, with missions and army sizes escalating as your force grows from a modest 500-point detachment to a fully realised 1250-point army. With no fixed army lists (beyond your chosen nation), you’ll have the freedom to adapt your forces as the campaign unfolds. But, this isn’t just about winning—it’s about how you play the game. The GGG has a strong emphasis on sportsmanship, creativity, and thematic armies, as such our prize support celebrates the spirit of the hobby as much as battlefield success.
Expect evolving objectives, unexpected twists, and a grand finale scenario packed with intriguing randomness to cap off the campaign. To keep things fresh and unpredictable, we’ve introduced unique mechanics such as steal able intelligence—snatch vital enemy information to grant your commander the coveted Intelligence Officer ability… but beware, as it can be taken right back! Secret secondary objectives will also keep players guessing, adding layers of intrigue and tactical depth to every engagement. So rally your troops, prepare your strategies, and join us on the battlefield.

Contraofensiva tridente de Rotterdam
2026-05-13 09:00 - 15:00 | C. de la Coruña, C. de la Coruña 13 28804 Alcalá de Henares Madrid, Madrid, Madrid, 28804, Spain
Habemus Ludum is organizing the second Konflikt ’47 tournament in Spain. We intend to continue periodically promoting the great qualities of the game so that it can be seen in stores and clubs.
We organized the first tournament together with Wargen Wargames at their store, and this second time we are hosting it at our own site. The tournament has been fully booked since the first day we announced it.
And it’s true that the more noise we make and the more visible we are, the more people notice the game and join the WhatsApp groups to show their interest.
We want to chain together 5 tournaments over the incoming months -this will be the second one- and finish with a unique event featuring a massive macro-battle. The players don’t know yet this fact; only two of us as organizers know about it. Each one of the operations where we set the tournaments is drawing a shape on the map of Europe that we will reveal right before that final special event.
In that final battle, the Green Vault faction will play as the defender, and the rest of the factions will attack their defensive positions. We plan to 3D print a “Sturmriese” to make it even more epic.
Since none of us are designers we have used just a AI tool to help us to improve the atmosphere of the events.
We are making commemorative pins about all the tournaments to being something to collect.
And that is what we are planning I hope you like it.
