If you've read my previous post called Solo Wargaming: What's That All About? then you'll know that I play some of my games solo—well, actually, most of my wargaming is played solo. There's something uniquely enjoyable about crafting a narrative and seeing it unfold on the tabletop, even without an opponent across from you. This time, I want to delve into a fascinating aspect of solo wargaming that some players embrace—something that probably doesn't come up as often in more social, competitive games, and that is giving miniature wargame figures a background or history. Pop over to my site and have a read of the full post - link

Good post. Several solo wargamers use a lot of that personalization and narrative to drive their games. If you haven't seen them, can I recommend Just Jack's various blogs for lots of applications of these ideas: link Plus a more mechanically-driven approach to the same thing here: solostellarstories.blogspot.com |
