Sorry Hawks fans, I couldn’t resist!

Just a reminder that we’ve got 13 hours of gaming over at Wadham House this Friday for a bumper public holiday Board in the East.

These videos may get worse...but if you can't 'bear' it there's an awesome weekend of gaming ahead!

Board in the East, Wadham House on Friday night...

Then our big R U OK 2 Play? mini-convention at Tatterson Pavillion on Saturday...

Then our other big R U OK 2 Play? event up Macleod Community Hall on Sunday!

It's almost like a full 3 day convention made up of separate events - within the whole week of events covering the nation that is R U OK 2 Play?

In short, it's the best week to play a board game until MeepleCon, and surely that makes up for the terrible videos! 😁

Hi Meeples!

We've often had one or two opportunities to play a role playing game or two at MeepleCon, and for our bigger 2026 event we're expanding that to a full stream of RPG one-shot experiences, lovingly curated with our friends at Mornington Dungeons & Dragons club !

One of our key goals is to create an RPG programme which is both fun for experienced role-players, and which gives as many people as possible that are new to role playing games the opportunity to have that first great experience, and find a game that appeals to their playstyle!

That means we want a nice variety of games and games masters - and if you're potentially one of those people then we'd like to hear from you.

Here's a link to our Expression of Interest form - so tell us if you're interested, what games you'd like to run and including if it's a game you've created yourself:
