Events happening in the FoW and Team Yankee world of gaming
Welcome to the ‘Devil’s Charge’ Flames of War (Late War) Campaign. The format of this event is slightly different from the usual style of events as players will be required to use army lists of differing point totals in each of the campaign rounds, including a large tank battle to finish the day.
Armies may only be selected from the Flames of War Battle of the Bulge army books.
This is a two-day event where players will compete in 4x games against different participants using Battlefront Miniatures World War 3 (Team Yankee) rules and army books.
This event is supported by Battlefront Miniatures who are kindly providing Award Plaques, Tournament Objectives, and prize support.
The WW3 (TY) UK Nationals will be held at Firestorm Games, Cardiff on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th of May 2025. Ticket price includes lunch served at the Firestorm café on both days.
Please be aware that this event uses 8ft x 4ft tables and that there are painting and army composition requirements
If you don’t play regularly but are maybe tempted to join the rapidly growing WW3 Team Yankee community, want to try out a new army, or are even an experienced player who’s prepared to play a friendly army and help newer players, this is the perfect one-day event.
The previous DEFCON2 events have proved to be extremely popular due to the event format being designed to keep it as beginner-friendly as possible – full details are available in the downloadable rule pack at the bottom of the page but, as a general outline, it will involve:
1. Players using small armies of 50pts
2. No painting requirements – just build and play (although painted miniatures are very welcome)
3. Friendly opponents who are either newer players themselves or players with more experience but who want to help tutor others
4. Extended rounds that give time to play at a friendly pace without the pressure of watching the clock
5. Restricted participant numbers to help prevent newer players feeling overwhelmed.
6. DYNAMIC POINTS WILL BE IN PLAY FOR THIS EVENT
This is a single-day event suitable for all levels of players, where you’ll compete in 3x games against different opponents using Battlefronts Flames of War (Late War) rules and army books.
Whether you’re a beginner, want to try a new army, or simply just want to brush up on your rules and skills, then this is for you.
80pt army size
2x colour minimum painting standard (hull & tracks/wheels for vehicles, uniform & skin for infantry, etc)
No duplicate Formations
No Allied units or Formations
Lunch is included in the ticket price
