Our Mission and Team
Tabletop wargaming offers a structured, immersive social environment that can significantly aid mental health and reduce social anxiety in veterans, both current and ex-serving.

Group play encourages social interaction in a low-pressure setting, helping veterans rebuild trust and communication skills. Painting miniatures and crafting terrain offer therapeutic, meditative benefits, promoting mindfulness and reducing stress. The collaborative and competitive elements foster camaraderie and purpose, echoing the bond of military teams. Through shared goals and positive engagement, wargaming becomes a safe, rewarding outlet for veterans to reconnect and heal.

Secretary
Brody Mewett
Brody had his first foray into tabletop wargaming when a friend bought the Age of Sigmar 2nd edition launch box in 2018 for $200. Thinking this was a ludicrous amount to spend on plastic, he reluctantly gave it a go. He then painted up a WarCry warband, then a Kill Team roster, then a Start Collecting box, finally building up to 1000pts of Adeptus Mechanicus as a nice round number to stop collecting. Flash forward 7 years and he’s painted tens of thousands of points of models and spent a bit more than $200 doing so. Brody’s always down for a game of 40k, AoS or Kill Team, and is setting his sights on new editions of The Old World and Horus Heresy. He’s also into a lot of non-GW board games so feel free to hit him up with any recommendations.
