Who we are


 The Comet Bay Wargames Club was created to allow students involved in the hobby to meet and play games. The club encourages students to actively participate in a wide range of wargames and campaigns and provides opportunities to not only play wargames, but also lear painting techniques and create scale model terrain.
 
    The CBCWC is open to all Comet Bay students from years 8-12 and is based around the three principles of RespectGamesmanshipand Innovation. Students are expected to act with courtesy and respect while in the club towards all players. Students are expected to play fairly and with good gamesmanship at all times, arguements are to be resolved in a gentlemanly manner and tempers are to be controlled. Students are encouraged to express their opinions, skills and ideas about the hobby while in the club. These three principles allow a safe and encouraging environment to practice their hobby.
