The warhammer table has been updated with some new buildings and terrain. Its better suited for Warhammer 40,000 battles but can easily be used for some fantasy battles.

If you're new to warhammer or the table-top genre of gaming, come on down and you can borrow an army to start playing right off the bat. Even if you dont want to play we encourage new players to watch so they dont get have to get wrapped up in the rules and can experience what a battle is like.

This is why you should always use claymores.

Behind the scenes sources tell me that Joypad is planning on hosting it's first ever gaming competition.

Its all hush-hush right now so details are sketchy at best but if you are interested in signing up, give the lads down at the centre your name and number to pit your skillz against some of the best Maynooth has to offer !

After countless weeks worth of planning and couple days worth of painting, the Joypad Gaming Centre has finally opened !

Yay !
