I was wondering if anybody else has used this for their wargaming campaigns and could maybe offer some tips.

No, we had designed a four choice per side, none dice rolling system for games decades ago.

Kreigspiel was an inspiration back in the 1974.

I used to play that game to death, but I never converted it for campaign use.
