Welcome to Miniatures Strategy Gaming Boot Camp!  Do you enjoy strategy games?  Do you like testing your wits against an unpredictable enemy and seeing who is decided the victor?  Do you like miniatures, model cars and planes, or fine detail painting?  During this project you will learn how to play the signature table top game produced by Games Workshop.  You will also learn some techniques for building and painting the models and engage in a little creative writing as well.  Everyone leaves Boot Camp with a copy of their own rule books, army codex, and some miniatures (detailed scale models used as game pieces).  The majority of the project cost funds these materials that you keep.

Special Considerations

Miniatures gaming features a lot of moving parts, and the mechanics of the game are challenging, but fun.  This project will have a strong appeal to students already experienced in modern tabletop gaming.  However, NO EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY and we welcome all students with a passion for strategy, tactical decision-making, and creative involvement in a cooperative, social environment.
