2020: Best Year Ever

 At least from a wargaming perspective.

You wouldn’t know it from looking at the blog, but I’ve had more wargaming related fun over the last twelve months than any decade of my life since leaving high school.  Dozens of games, multiple projects to completion, the start of an ambitious new chapter in my wargaming career…but best of all has been the many new friends and contacts that I’ve made along the way.

And the hits just keep on coming.

With the near-completion of the physical requirements, the Trossian War map-based mega-campaign should start up in earnest this January.

Behold my 2-millimeter glory!
(WIP)

We’ll also be delving into the old dungeon.  Still on the hunt for the best dungeoneering wargame for my money, I’m taking the Song of.. ruleset down into the depths.  Not for the first time, but at least now I’ll guidance from the author himself on how to properly balance the game.  Maybe the next delve won’t end in a TPK in the first encounter.

So stick around.  The posting might be light, but the content is heavy on the effort.  We aren’t going anywhere full time just yet.

For those of you who have been fans of the blog for years, perhaps an apology is in order.  My focus shifted from the written word to the realm of video this year, to great results.  When it comes time to talk wargames, I’ve found that the video reach far exceeds that of the blog.  Generally speaking, when it comes time to share, video presents opportunities that the blog simply does not.  Don’t worry, we’ll still be here posting content from time to time, but as a man of too little butter scraped across too little bread, it makes more sense to devote more time to The Joy of Wargaming.
