Set Sail, Survive the Sludge, and Race to the Finish!

Impact Gaming Center

Make Sunday a game day! Our monthly third-Sunday gathering offers two very different adventures: command a ship in the Napoleonic era or lead survivors on a desperate search for supplies.
Table One: Action Under Sail
Napoleonic Naval Gaming
Presented by Steve King
Clear the decks and prepare for action! Join Steve King for Action Under Sail and put your command decisions to the test in a Napoleonic naval encounter. Will your tactics carry the day?
Table Two: The Sludge Project
Game Master: Kevin Fitzpatrick
One Hour Skirmish Wargame Rules | 54mm figures
Dr. Leroy Shaw—Nobel Prize-winning chemist and champion knife thrower—thought industrial wastewater held the key to a scientific breakthrough. His graduate students called it “the Sludge Project.”
That was before they were devoured.
Now the survivors need food, and supplies may still be hidden in the caretaker cabins at What’s A Matta U’s summer camp. Your team’s assignment: head out, grab what you can, and make it back!
Enjoy a little lingering Halloween-season suspense in this fictional survival adventure, where a simple supply run could become anything but simple.
Visitors are welcome to observe, ask questions, and participate. No prior gaming experience is required! Explore how terrain, strategy, leadership, and uncertain information shape decisions at the tabletop.
