Axes & Ales is a tabletop gaming club based in Melbourne, Australia. We meet every Thursday night at Tallboy & Moose (our local craft brewery!) in Preston and play all sorts of tabletop games including a range of miniature wargames and boardgames.
The club is very generously sponsored by a growing selection of local businesses including:
- Tallboy & Moose (get 10% of drinks at the bar on Thursday nights)
- Mind Games Melbourne (get 10% discount on your purchases in store)
- Knights of Dice (get 10% discount on purchases online and in store)
We’re very proud of the the clubs collection of terrain for gaming, the majority of which has come from the Knights of Dice studio … definitely check out the Gallery for pictures! All the clubs tables are organised into themed terrain sets, which makes it very easy to setup up a table and to make things much easier to pack away and store at the brewery who have very kindly given us space to store the clubs equipment.
If you live in Melbourne’s inner north and are looking for a regular, active and enthusiastic group of people to play games with … come along (it’s free for everyone!), and if you think you’d like to help support the club (and reap the benefits from our sponsors) consider becoming a member which helps us maintain our collection of club equipment, and buy new things for the members to enjoy!
Hope to see you on Thursday for a cold, delicious, fresh craft beer and amazing food!

I hope you are all well! I’m the President of the Northern Suburbs Gamers Club (also called Axes & Ales Gaming Club), and run Knights of Dice, an Australian manufacturer of MDF terrain and other wargaming accessories.
