Introduction to Roleplaying and Wargaming Society
September 20, 2016
If the thought of all those themed club nights for the first few weeks of term leaves you wishing you’d stayed at home, there are other ways of meeting like-minded people. For me, that was Roleplaying and Wargaming Society, or RPGSoc. I joined RPGSoc as a wargamer, but RPGSoc had other interesting activities for me …

Introduction to the Improv Society
