• Horley Scout Camp, Wroxton, Banbury , Oxfordshire OX15 6BB

A chance for a social/practical meetup to work on weapons, props, costume and so on for the upcoming year.

Share skills and resources and maybe even do a tiny bit of skirmishing to test things out. This is sort of a replacement for the Christmas Tag events of old with a more practical leaning.

There is a plan to build 14 identical Pulse Ranger loan items and maybe some sensors too, Phil has been hard at work gathering components and assembling PCBs.

Some bunks are available, but contact us in advance as they will be very limited.

Otherwise it's camping in January, brrr!

Booking - Just arrive on the day, but ideally let us know in the Facebook event!

"Several Imperial Guard units are recovering and retraining on the Agri World ‘Trebatha’ in the Tertius sub-sector. The local Planetary Defence Force are few and poorly trained and wary of the ‘professional’ Imperial Guard. An Inquisitor comes to visit from the ‘Ordo Hereticus’.

Everyone understandably is on edge."

The conclusion of the series of High Frontier: Gods and Monsters games by James Bloodworth et al.

"A surprising meeting sets off a desperate race with the prize being the greatest secret in the universe.

You may have implemented The Goodman Protocol, you may be on the brink of achieving The Drake Objective, but it’s always dangerous to forget about: The Weyland Factor"

These games focus on themes of First Contact in the UKLTA's High Frontier shared Universe. They are broadly inspired by events in the movie Prometheus where human corruption and self-interest lead to conflict over which faction of Humanity will be at the forefront in dealing with Intelligent Extra-terrestrials that might seem like Gods to us.

Each episode is broadly self-contained you do not need to have played the previous episodes.

More details on the game website and in our Facebook event.
