The Coach Behind Your Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game Success

With over 15 years of competitive wargaming experience, I’ve worked my way up through every stage of the game. From mastering armies to refining strategies and winning tournaments, I’ve been where you are. I know what it takes to succeed and what mistakes to avoid along the way. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to help you elevate your gameplay and feel confident at every turn.

I created this coaching service to offer you the guidance, clarity, and insights I wish I had when I first started. I’ve spent years refining my approach, learning from my own mistakes, and applying the strategies that truly work. Now, I’m here to help you do the same.

I have a long list of achievements across Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game (MESBG) and other tabletop wargames, including:

  • Captain of London’s first team, Fellowship of the Ring Road
  • Multiple-time Middle-earth Master
  • Multiple Top 25 GBHL finishes

But it’s not just about the titles. It’s about sharing what I’ve learned and helping you avoid the frustrations I faced early on. Whether you’re looking to refine your favourite army, learn new strategies, or develop a mindset that keeps you calm under pressure, I’m here to help you reach your goals and play your best.

Why Coaching?

I know the road to mastering MESBG isn’t easy. It’s a complex game with a lot of moving pieces, and it can be overwhelming at times. That’s exactly why I created this coaching service: to give you the clarity and confidence I wish I had when I first started playing.

I’m here to help you break down the barriers that have been holding you back—whether it’s not knowing where to focus your attention, struggling with a certain army or tactic, simply feeling frustrated with your progress or feeling like you are approaching the game with the wrong midset.

Together, we’ll work on strategies, mindset, and techniques that will help you feel more in control of your games and more confident in your decisions. The goal is simple: to make sure you enjoy the game while steadily improving.

Let’s Leave the Frustration Behind

You’ve probably felt like you’ve hit a wall before. Maybe your army choices feel stale, or you’re stuck in a rut during your games. I’ve been there, and I know how discouraging it can be. But you don’t have to stay stuck.

With my coaching, you’ll gain the clarity and direction you need to break through those obstacles. I’ll help you identify what’s holding you back and give you the tools to move forward with purpose and confidence.

Let’s stop feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of the game and instead start playing with focus, strategy, enjoyment and good sportsmanship. I’m here to help you reach the next level—and make every game a fun and rewarding experience.

My Approach to Coaching

  • Helping you Find Your Flow

    Every player has a unique way of thinking, playing, and approaching the game. My goal is to help you find the armies, strategies, and playstyle that feel natural to you, so you can play with confidence, efficiency, and enjoyment.

    I work with you to identify what suits your strengths, preferences, and mindset. Whether you thrive in aggressive, fast-paced engagements or prefer a more calculated, reactive approach, I’ll help you refine a strategy that fits. Together, we’ll explore army choices, list-building, and in-game tactics that align with how you think and play best.

    When you’re in your flow, decision-making becomes smoother, your plays become sharper, and your confidence grows. My coaching is about helping you reach that point, so you can play at your best, your way.

  • Personalised Guidance

    I understand that every player has their own preferred strategies and army lists, and I respect your choices. If you’re committed to a particular approach that I believe may not be the most effective for your growth, I won’t dictate, I’ll collaborate.

    My coaching is built on open communication and mutual respect. I take the time to understand your perspective, goals, and playstyle, while also offering insights from my experience at the highest levels of play. My goal is to work with you to explore adjustments that stay true to your vision while giving you the best possible chance of success on the battlefield.

    Whether you want to refine your favourite army or explore new strategic opportunities, I’m here to help you grow as a player.

  • Mastering Mindset – Staying Focused, Positive, and In Control

    Success in Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game isn’t just about strategy and skill, it’s also about mindset. Staying calm under pressure, avoiding tilt, and keeping your ego in check are just as important as knowing the right moves to make.

    I’ll help you develop a resilient and focused mindset, so you can approach every game with clarity and confidence. We’ll work on strategies to avoid frustration, recognise emotional triggers, and stay in control, even when the dice don’t go your way.

    It’s easy to let your ego get tied up in your performance, but the best players learn to separate their self-worth from their results. I’ll help you reframe setbacks as opportunities to learn, so every game, win or lose, moves you forward.
