Special Operations - Rapid Response
2026-07-28 16:30 - 21:30 (Europe/London) | Battleground Gaming, Acocks Green Baptist Church, 39 Yardley Rd, Birmingham, B27 6HG, United Kingdom
Special Operations events run by Charity Wargaming Circuit are designed to raise awareness for Birmingham Hospice, a charity that is near to me. After my dad passed 2022, I wanted to do something to give back. Rapid Response is like all events run by CWC will have a focused name of help and support.
Deploy your elite strike forces for a vital local cause at The War Effort: Rapid Response, a fast-paced Bolt Action: Third Edition evening charity event launching on 28th July at the Moseley All Services Club to raise community awareness for Birmingham Hospice. This unique event challenges commanders to field agile, hard-hitting 600-point forces built for small-unit special operations across custom, thematic terrain. Utilizing the latest Third Edition rules, the tournament focuses on aggressive maneuvering and lightning-fast tactical decision-making rather than a standard war of attrition. Entry is completely free to all, as the primary mission of the evening is to spotlight and celebrate the crucial palliative and end-of-life care that Birmingham Hospice provides to individuals and families across the Midlands.
The entire operation is packed into a single, high-energy evening running from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM, featuring three intensive 1-hour rounds following a quick mandatory briefing. Because the venue offers expansive space, there is no player capacity limit, making this the perfect opportunity for players of all experience levels—from seasoned veterans to complete newcomers—to gather, talk hobby, and experience the thrill of Third Edition in a tight, accessible timeframe. Whether you are fielding highly trained commandos, airborne squads, or light vanguard units, come along for an incredible night of cinematic tabletop warfare, great sportsmanship, and community solidarity.

Prepare for a weekend of tactical brilliance and cinematic warfare at the Utah Cup Bolt Action & K47 Grand Tournament.

Whether you are leading a historical platoon or commanding the weird-science horrors of the Rift, this is your chance to test your mettle on the tabletop.
⚔️ The Tournament Format
The Utah Cup is a rigorous, five-game competitive journey designed to challenge your strategic flexibility across two distinct eras of combat:
Saturday: Bolt Action (3 Games) – Relive the intense historical skirmishes of WWII. Precision, positioning, and the “Order Die” will determine who seizes the initiative.
Sunday: Konflikt ’47 (2 Games) – The war evolves. Incorporate walkers, heavy infantry, and supernatural threats as the timeline shifts into the high-stakes world of weird-science warfare.
One player will rise above the rest to be crowned the Champion of Utah. Will it be you?
🎖️ New Players: Start Your Journey Here!
Never played a tabletop wargame? Never played Bolt Action? No problem. Every veteran was a recruit once, and we want the Utah Cup to be the most inclusive event in the circuit.
Borrow an Army: We have pre-set armies available for you to borrow for the event.
Community Support: Our community is ready to help. If you need a specific faction or units, post in the Bravo Company Discord. We’ll do our best to get a force into your hands.
Recruit a Friend: If you know someone who has been curious about the hobby, send them this packet! It’s the perfect time to jump in.

Beyond the heat of battle, we celebrate the artistry of the hobby. We are hosting a dedicated Historicals Painting Competition with four prestigious categories:

Operation No Safe Ground 2026
2026-08-15 08:30 - 20:15 | Nashcon, 777 McGavock Pike, Nashville, 37214, United States
Operation No Safe Ground 2026
Nashcon Historical Miniatures Tournament
Following the success of last year’s Operation No Safe Waters, the battle has
moved ashore. The fleets have withdrawn, but the war is far from over.
Operation No Safe Ground places players in the midst of a brutal land campaign
where every hill, village, crossroads, and ruined city block has become contested
ground. The enemy is battered but unbroken, entrenched behind fortifications and
determined to hold every inch of territory. Players will command infantry, armor,
artillery, and support elements as they fight through a series of challenging
scenarios designed to capture the chaos and intensity of World War II ground
combat.
This year’s event is a Bolt Action tournament held at Nashcon in Nashville,
Tennessee, bringing together players from across the region and beyond for a
full day of competitive gaming, camaraderie, and historical wargaming. The event
features custom missions, thematic objectives, and a narrative-driven atmosphere
that immerses participants in the struggle for control of a war-torn battlefield.
Theme Narrative
After the chaos of Operation No Safe Waters, the war has shifted inland. The
enemy, battered but unbroken, has dug in across the countryside, fortifying
villages, crossroads, and ruins. There are no harbors to secure and no fleets to
sink. Now every hilltop, farmfield, and city street is a battlefield. Artillery shatters
the silence. Tanks grind forward across scarred earth. Infantry advance under fire,
step by bloody step. There are no safe harbors, no safe waters, and now… NO
SAFE GROUND.
We are seeking prize support to help recognize outstanding sportsmanship,
painting, generalship, and overall performance while continuing to grow the
historical wargaming community. Any support is greatly appreciated and will be
acknowledged during the event and through our event communications.
Thank you for helping make Operation No Safe Ground 2026 a memorable
experience for our players.

Czwarty Turniej Parowy w Bolt Action w Poznaniu
2026-08-22 09:00 - 18:30 | 47, Święty Marcin 47, Poznań, Greater Poland Voivodeship, 61-806, Poland
On August 22, 2026, the Fourth Bolt Action Pairs Tournament in Poznań will be held at WARGAMER in Poznań. Players representing not only from Poznań, but also numerous representatives from our partner clubs—including those from Bydgoszcz, Ostrów Wielkopolski, Piotrków Trybunalski, Swarzędz, Warsaw, Wrocław, and several other cities—will compete side by side. The tournament itself, now a regular event, is aimed not only at veterans of our hobby, but also at intermediate players and those who have only recently begun their adventure with this hobby.
Three matches based on original scenarios will be played on enlarged tables (compared to standard dimensions)—81.5 x 48 inches.
In the first scenario, the table will be divided into four quarters. In two of these quarters (located diagonally across from each other), players from both sides will place one marker each, which the opposing side must capture at all costs. Players starting the battle in these quarters will benefit from the Prepared Position rule, though they will be subjected to artillery fire. Players from the remaining quarters will enter the fray under the First Wave rule.
In the second scenario, players will have to capture two trucks carrying gold—each heading in opposite directions—as well as a marker in the center of the table. The problem is that these trucks will be defended by guards. You won’t be able to stop them by shooting at them; the only way is to charge them (which could prove painful)…
The third scenario will be played out as a defender-versus-attacker scenario. The attacker’s objective will be to recapture the trucks, carrying the seized gold from the enemy. In this scenario, each side will have the opportunity to call in artillery or air strikes from a single commander once during the entire game (under special rules).
The tournament will feature 32 participants (16 pairs), who will have to complete the tasks set before them while battling in both rural and urban settings. In this type of event, the key to victory is not only a well-composed army (we’ll be fighting with 777 points per person) but, above all, the ability to cooperate with your partner. A well-thought-out strategy will be the key to victory.
We wish all the generals participating in the competition the best of luck!!!
