Roll Call - 28th & 29th March 2026

[TMOJ]

Roll Call returns to our now-regular venue in Cranfield near Milton Keynes over the weekend of 28/29 March in 2026.

We have finalised many of the dates and periods, but please check the relevant page for details of your preferred event to see if its been updated for 2026 as yet.

​We have also taken more space this year so should have no real issues with venue capacity. ​We will as usual only look to run events with a minimum of 6 players, and where this proves too challenging to achieve, offer refunds or swaps to other periods for anyone impacted in plenty of time for players ot make other arrangements if necessary.

BHGS Convention Team: Dave Allen, Tim Porter

In the event that there are insufficient players to make your chosen period viable (normally fewer than 6 players), you will be offered the option to switch to another period or a full refund.

GENERAL ENTRY CONDITIONS

Admission to any BHGS tournament is at the sole discretion of the organisers and their decision on all matters is final. If any entrant breaches these rules, commits a criminal offence, causes disruption during the competition (including to public, traders or staff at the venue) or causes or threatens to cause damage to property at the venue the BHGS’s representative on the day will be entitled in his or her absolute discretion to require that player to leave the competition and the venue immediately, without any refund. In such cases we are likely also to refuse entry to future events.

ARMY LISTS

Late submission of army lists is your best and most effective way to make the lives of the many kind, selfless and generous people who organise these events for you a real misery. Please therefore try to submit your list in good time. Deadline dates and list checkers will be published on the BHGS website and communicated to players. The BHGS reserve the right to inflict any one of a wide range of as yet unspecified grave, horrible, humiliating and potentially personally painful penalties on anyone who submits a late list. Especially if you are a repeat offender. You know who you are.... so be careful !
