Keep the first meeting<br />

simple; it’s all about letting<br />

the club members settle in.<br />

When the club members arrive introduce<br />

them to each other and yourself, and then<br />

let them sort out amongst themselves who<br />

is going to play.<br />

They will probably stay in their groups at<br />

first but over a couple of sessions they will<br />

start to socialise in different groups. It’s best<br />

to have one-on-one battles as this avoids<br />

anyone feeling ganged up on, but for the<br />

first meeting let them just find their feet.<br />

As the club progresses you may wish to<br />

have an extra club meeting during which<br />

they can play really big battles or have<br />

larger multiplayer games. For most normal<br />

club sessions it is best to try and get them to<br />

play <strong>School</strong> League rules, as this means they<br />

can play more than one person a meeting.<br />

Call the club to an end 15 minutes before<br />

they need to stop and get the club<br />

members to help you put things away or<br />

take responsibility for some tasks or areas<br />

of the club space. This helps them feel that<br />

the club is truly theirs and means that you<br />

can get to the staff room in time for a well<br />

earned cuppa!<br />

FIRST<br />

CLUB MEETING<br />

AND RUNNING THE CLUB<br />

Miniature painters can gain a great sense of achievement<br />

from seeing their skill levels improve over time.<br />

Quotes from school club members:<br />

“The best thing about school!”<br />

“Warhammer is good because it’s challenging.”<br />

“A club where I can learn new skills”<br />

“Great for any age.”<br />

“It’s relaxing and creative.”<br />

ARMIES<br />

Some clubs may wish to buy<br />

other armies in addition to the<br />

suggested purchases on pages 17-<br />

20. You will need to consider the<br />

following points when buying<br />

club armies:<br />

• Budget<br />

• Who will put them together?<br />

• Who will paint them?<br />

• Will they get lost or stolen?<br />

• Do you have the right army<br />

book/codex?<br />

If you want to buy armies for the<br />

club please get in touch with us.<br />
