Based in the heart of Telford, The Ork Forge is your local hub for tabletop gaming, hobby supplies, and geek culture – whether you're painting minis, building armies, or diving into storytelling worlds. We carry a mix of essentials like Warhammer, Citadel, and Army Painter, alongside standout indie titles like Moonstone, Conquest, Root, and Free League RPGs.

We champion small publishers, community-led play, and a welcoming space for everyone – with free play tables, snacks, and friendly faces always on hand to help you roll, paint, or learn something new.
