work closely with the General’s Outpost gaming club and have decided, due to popular response,
to host events in store. While I always support the club’s events at their venue, this is a chance for
players to visit the shop, play in a different environment, and on new tables and terrain!
While this event is already sold out, more will be planned throughout the year, so plenty
opportunity to join in future tournaments! Soon, tickets will be available through the shop’s
website, but for now, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Congratulations officers, you’re going to the front lines! Fellowship and
Firepower is focused on getting new commanders some combat experience. Players new
to the game are encouraged to come out and play in this relaxed tournament and see if
they can lead their army to victory. While we want as many new players to come out as
possible, this tournament is open towards experienced commanders as well. In fact, we
would love to have players with a good knowledge of the game to help out new
commanders when needed!
As the name says, we want players to have fun with the firepower of their troops,
and also experience fellowship from other gamers as well. We want to grow this
community and get players excited to keep playing and attending events for Bolt Action.
So whether you’re still learning your battle maneuvers, or you’re well-decorated from
battle, load up and ship out to Fellowship and Firepower!

Each area will offer open game libraries, tournaments, guided sessions, demonstrations, and activities tailored to different experience levels. The programme will take place in distinctive venues across the town, strengthening the bond between play, landscape, and local cultural life.
A strong focus on wargaming, miniatures, and hobby
The wargaming & miniatures pillar will be a key highlight of the festival, with a clear ambition to create a vibrant space for both newcomers and veteran players. Expect a weekend full of:
– Introductory demo games and learn-to-play sessions to bring new players into the hobby
– Guided battles and scenario-driven games with experienced hosts
– Organised play and tournaments for those looking for competitive play
– Showcase tables and hobby content (miniatures, terrain, modelling and painting culture)
– Painting competition, guided painting lessons and a relaxed space to paint miniatures with AK Interactive material.

This is the festival area where collaboration with **Warlord Games can really shine: highly visible, hands-on, and built around discovery and community engagement.
More than games
The Festival del Joc del MontserratÃ will also include complementary proposals such as games with designers, presentations of games and books, talks, live podcasts, and activities aimed at encouraging and spreading gaming culture.
A proven, active community
Olesa already has a very active gaming community, built over more than twenty years around the Club de Rol dâ Olesa de Montserrat (CROM), which brings together 150+ members from across the region.

Organisation

The festival already has 60+ volunteers who will make this first edition possible and bring the event to life.

Berks Spring Assault 2026
2026-04-25 09:00 - 17:00 | Conrad Weiser Middle School, Conrad Weiser MS 347 E Penn Ave, Robesonia, 19551, United States
Berks Spring Assault is an annual one-day mini-game convention that focuses on the fun aspects of our hobbies in the gaming world. Just just game play, but making the games fun, weather it is a tournament or a narrative battle. We focus on all aspects of the hobbies, game play, sportsmanship and sharing our love for our games. In focusing more on fun we have partnered up with a local charity and have eliminated winning prizes as a focus for the tournament. Sure, we still have nice acrylic trophies to win, and bragging rights to shout your name out for the glorious deeds your army has achieved. What makes us different is that the majority of our prizes are done as raffle prizes. Our Bolt Action tournament will feature some fun missions and a unique point value at 1067 points, (themed with the iconic 6-7 joke that seems to be in the current pop culture), with the requirement of 1-rifle platoon.
Relying upon a combination of donations from sponsors and some prizes that our Gaming Club also invests into, we feature often times $3000-$5000 in various prizes from game mats, models, paints to even gift certificates to local restaurants. This is a Community event, not just a one-day mini game convention. ALL proceeds support a scholarship fund for the local high school, the Love All – Knarr Family foundation. Even the high school students of the Key Club and Dungeons & Dragons Club help out by running a food shack done up like a medieval tavern and provide and deliver food and drinks while dressed in costume. Last year we were able to donate over $3000 back to the Love All – Knarr Family Foundation with well over 160 persons in attendance!

3ème convention Bolt Action France

My ambition is to organise the biggest event in France by opening registration to 40 players.
How is this convention different from other tournaments? Because it is specifically aimed at beginner players, younger players (I have a lot of father/son pairs -> it’s a team 2×600 pts tournament) and those who want to share their passion with other players on immersive tables specially developed for the convention.
The convention will feature games, challenges and a painting competition.
The two previous editions were characterised by a great sense of solidarity between players and across generations. Poster attached.
This event will be covered by my YouTube channel ( most important Bolt Action youtube channel in France) and the Bolt Action France Discord.

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.

2026-05-23 07:00 - 20:00 | 6019, Blue Ridge Boulevard, Raytown, 64133, United States
Underfire: Bolt Action is hosting a 1250 point 18 order dice Event at Midwest Conquest. Please join us for a solid day of dice throwing and fun. This event is regularly a large-scale event, with a maximum of 15 tables which is likely to sell out.

Battle of the Bulge 2026
2026-05-23 09:00 - 17:00 | Element Games,, Hallam Business Centre, Hallam St Stockport, Greater Manchester, SK2 6PT7, United Kingdom
his will be a team event taking place over three extra large 6X8 foot tables. Two teams of three players will play over each table. The overall theme of the event will be the Battle of the Bulge and each table will cover a historical event from the battle. For example, one table will cover the offensive by Kampfgruppe Peiper and their efforts to secure allied fuel dumps. Another will cover the intervention by the British and their crossing of the River Meuse and another table will cover the Siege of Bastogne.
This event will differ from previous large-scale games because the tables have been separated. This will enable smoother gameplay and it will also allow each table to have its own distinct theme. The event will also be awesome because I will be incorporating rules from the Battle of the Bulge campaign book such as fog and fuel shortages. For example, I will be using fog rules for the British table, fuel shortage rules for German vehicles son every table and also the dug in rules from the V3 rulebook for the Bastogne table. I have also encouraged players to bring unusual units from the campaign book such as disguised German troops and vehicles. I have also provided players with suggested historical units to model towards such as the 101st Airborne, Panzer Lehr and Volksgrenadiers. Several players have started entirely new armies for this event and we are currently keeping each other updated on our progress on social media. One player in particular has been kitbashing an army based on Panzerbrigade 150, which will be great to see on the day. As players will each be playing a single game throughout the day, they will also be able to bring much larger armies that they would normally take to a tournament. The standard army size will be 2000 points with a recommended dice cap of 25, while the attacking German players on the Bastogne table will be taking 2400 points, giving them a 20% advantage over the defenders.
In addition to giving players the opportunity to play with unusual rules and units, this will also give players a chance to play competitive narrative events with a historical theme on a large scale. This will set the event apart from a standard tournament.
