Gaming group
The Irregulars had their start fifteen years back, a gathering of Civil Servants in Bristol united by their passion for wargaming. With time, their numbers grew as more individuals from different backgrounds were added to their ranks. Now, they convene regularly each month in Frome to engage in larger games with as many as sixteen players, as well as attend gaming conventions.
