Who is LXG?

LXG is a gaming club based in Brisbane, Australia. At LXG we believe in creating a family-friendly gaming space tabletop gamers of all ages. Our activities revolve around the face to face interaction offered by board games old and new. We manage Brisbane’s (if not Australia’s) largest board game library to ensure that we have something for all tastes.

The club library has over 300 individual titles, and additional copies of popular games. For a full list go to the Games section. In addition to this long list, club members bring their own games in for people to play, meaning that newer releases are also available.

We have over 20 of 8′ x 4′ tables & terrain for fantasy and science-fiction miniature wargames, as well as tables suitable for smaller games.

Meetings have a relaxed & social atmosphere. They are an ideal time to learn the rules of a new game, or practice for a tournament.

We have something on offer for gamers of all levels, from newcomers to tournament veterans.

LXG meetings take place once per calendar month. Meetings last from 9am to 5pm.
