Here’s why you should tune in for the Battle for Sophia; it’s an impressive feat of wargaming for charity.
The Innsmouth Gaming Club will embark on a 48 hour long marathon of Warhammer Fantasy Battle playing in order to raise donations for Sophia’s Stepping Stones. The charity is in place to help a young Witney girl with Spastic Diplegia, a form of Cerebral Palsy, who needs a vital operation and months of post-op physio.
The tabletop battle will use more than 2000 miniatures, 50 terrain pieces and a huge 12′ by 4′ table.
There will be a prize draw too. Steve Foote, club chairman, said;
“We’re reaching-out to the wargaming community to help support Sophia’s Stepping Stones and hope this event will be entertaining and inspiring enough to encourage donations.
“There will be viewer interaction allowing donations to affect the course of the battle and trigger special in-game events. We are also hosting a prize draw which a number of businesses, including OG Games, Hollow Tree Studios and Heelan Hammer have supported by donating prizes.”
If you want to donate to help Sophia you can do so here or you can follow the marathon at the Oxfordshire-based gamaing group’s site.
