Introducing....
📝 Tabletop Quiz is back!
Tabletop quiz is back! Making its grand return later this term!
For all freshers joining us, once per term we run Tabletop quiz! It's just a fun filled night full of silly quiz rounds..... AND there's prizes!
We will be in S0.21 (Click here to see it on the interactive map) from 7-10pm on the 1st of December (week 9 Friday) playing through a whole range of rounds (usually not very rules lawyer-y)!
Bring your friends make a team! Entry will be £1.50 each!
Butttttt
Do you want to run a quiz round?
We're after simple 10 question multiple choice quiz rounds that can be on anything! They don't have to be tabletop related at all!
In the past we've had rounds on fanfic, geoguesser type rounds, and general trivia on fun topics!
If you wish to run a round DM Kelsey (@.kelseyk) on discord!
🎲Want to run an Intros game?
We're running Intro to RPGs again at the beginning of term 2! Specifically, the Saturday at the end of week 1!
If you would like to run a one shot at Intro to RPGs round 2 (electric boogaloo) please message our lovely RPGs rep Ethan (@vortex_creed_113) or assistant RPGs rep Issac (@a_person__)!
You can run any game & any system you wish! At previous Intros people have ran the classic D&D, City of Mist, ALIEN, Fate core accelerated, etc. You name it you can (probably) run it!
For anyone interested in playing, more infomation about what games will be being ran and all that infomation shortly! Sign ups will be on the website just like previous Intro games!

💭 What happened last week? 💭
Last week at Wargames:
"Here is a dwarf that reminds me of our quartermaster James, because of how much stuff he has to carry" - Ben (Pres)
Now I'll be honest as an audience member I had no clue what was going on for this battle all anyone could see was the swarm of boys battling it out! In the end the custodes win with only two minis standing!
This game did produce the wonderful quote of "come on little man it’s time to move" from RPG rep Ethan!
Last week in FIST:
This week, the party learnt the important lesson: “if someone introduces themselves as Stabby Jack, they’re probably going to stab you.”
Last week in ALIEN: Destroyer of worlds:
Woo some of the OG characters made it to act 3! Only two of them but thats better than none! Some characters said screw their secret agendas we make our own plans!
Theres not many ways i can summerise this game without spoiling it so instead I bring you quotes!
- My observation's so shit I need glasses
- I am Chenough - a quote from the lovely Chaplin
- They said don’t eat yellow snow, what about red snow?
- This is Horton, who says ‘who?’ And misses you (with his gun)
- RPG rep Ethan can’t roll for shit but can do trick shots with his dice
- Wait there are curtains in this car???
- "wait how pregnant am I?" "About two successes along"
- She's so hot I panicked
Stay tuned for act 3 next week!
Last week in murderous misfits:
Just as the group thought they would get a break, most of them were labelled as terrorists and had to flee the city. Along the way they picked up NPCs, fortunes which were FAR TOO ACCURATE and a baby dragon!
In the wise words of Ava (shes still everyones favourite problem child) "big slay"!
Last week in LARP:
Manifold mischief manifested within the sacred cloisters of the temple city of Annd as the party put on their best detective hats and tried to uncover a plot to assassinate the Cardinal of Skoi. Though they narrowed down the list of malicious and misanthropic suspects as they made their way through the madness of the city of faith, they were ultimately unsuccessful in preventing Cardinal Simeon from being killed. But they were successful in obtaining a hefty bribe, and a clue as to who was behind the conspiracy...
Extra Bonus End Bit
Adventures of Strawberry Jam!
Jam thought he'd play a little game this week! Today we're playing spot Jam!
Big thank you to RPGs rep Ethan for this fabulous idea!
I'll reveal the answer next week for anyone curious who can't find him!
Have a good week!
