The Solo Wargaming Guide: Siegecraft

With the aftermath of the battle of Silcock Farm behind us, it is time to figure out how the siege of Leftopolis goes for the invasion forces. Can the Sinistreans hold out long enough for their counterpunch to land?

The old school way you organize this is impressive. There is no way I could manage all this information without a digital spreadsheet and map UI. I would spend ten hours programming in excel, then feel overwhelmed and never even begin a campaign. Mad props for your discipline.

This is gripping stuff, there's nothing on television as good as this

This might be the nicest comment I've ever received on a video. Hall of fame.

True story bruh

[@semorepagne9996]

This is so incredibly gripping and interesting. I used to think pen and paper wargaming seemed so much more tedious than PC wargaming, but after watching some of this content, it seems to engage with the player in a much healthier and stimulating way. Something about the abstraction and imagination makes this seem so much more fun.

Really enjoying your campaign. It has inspired me to start another one. Keep it up!

[@TheJoyofWargaming]

That's great to hear. If you get the chance to post a quick summary, I'd love to read it.

I have never played a solo war game, although I have created my own world & political landscape with Ex Novo. I love mapping games & incorporate various solo gaming tables. This style of play takes my maps & political landscapes to life. Loving your videos & have subscribed. Keep it up! Love seeing game play in real-time.

Welcome aboard!

Love this series...I've had this book for years , but never put it to use.

[@davidlee3311]

Great stuff. I love the way the campaign is playing out.

Another great viedo. This is playing out like a story! Thank you for the video.

This has all the makings of a great Novel. Flesh out the background, invest in key characters and look to get it published! The wargame itself is giving you core events to build the narrative on.

[@dartmart9263]

So true! It does read like an awesome novel.

[@dartmart9263]

The Sinistreans need to find a way to share some of that smallpox love with the besiegers.

Are you able to organise your ongoing campaign-style playlists by publish date, oldest first? For example in this playlist the Solo Wargaming Guide runs backwards if you let it auto-play? Many thanks!

[@TheJoyofWargaming]

Maybe? Let me see what I can do.
