We're looking forward to catching up with you all at todays board game meet from 4pm at Llanyrafon Methodist Church.

It's a warm one, so don't forget to bring a drink and stay hydrated. Cold refreshments will be available for a small donation.

With the local wild fires causing thick smoke across Cwmbran, we would ask attendees to please keep the doors closed as much as possible. Thank you.

See you soon!!

Welcome!

You've been summoned to represent (or at least survive) one of the strangest legal disputes the kingdom has ever seen.

The village of Bramble Hollow has received notice that the land beneath their feet legally belongs to a monster named Grumblax, who insists he has the paperwork to prove it. Unfortunately... he might actually be right.

Civitas Gaming will be hosting its first ttrpg game for its Summer of One Shots on the 9th of August. If this is something you are interested in and wish to participate in then please fill in the sign up sheet below.

A Monster Complaint - https://forms.gle/1APemYDx7FpzjkBf7

As always, any further enquiries or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Facebook team.

Many Thanks,
Civitas Gaming
