What is the CGC?
Fun for the entire family!
Bring your favorite game and join us for some family fun!
Some of the club's favorite games are Axis & Allies, Chess, History of the World,
Magic: the Gathering, Settlers of Catan, Napoleonic Wars and many more. From our biblical
past to the space age, every meeting features miniatures used to recreate historical or fantasy
battles. Some of our more popular rule systems we play include:A to Z Ancients,
Napoloenics, Civil War, and Fighting Sail, Carnage & Glory, From Valmy to Waterloo,
Battleground, Command at Sea, DBA, High Noon, Warhammer 40k and Warmaster.
In addition, many club members get together at other times, thus creating a network of gaming
which extends through much of Connecticut and Eastern New York. The club hosts annual special
invents including a game auction in September the CGC has hosted for over two decades.
