Would you like to play a game? Looking forward to this #WWN event Labyrinth Games & Puzzles this Thursday. We’ll be joined by Fort Circle Games and I heard a rumor that Tory Johnston may make an appearance! #womeninwargaming


Huge shout out to Fort Circle Games and Labyrinth Games & Puzzles for making our #WWN #ShoresofTripoli event come to life! So much fun…so much pirating. What do we think Tory Johnston #VotesforWomen game night next? #boardgames #womeninwargaming


Thank you @LetsPlayHistory and #IKS for hosting a super fun practitioner game of #kriegsspiel. At the end of the day, Napoleon’s army owned the field thanks to some great teamwork with @Volko26 and Little Wars TV #wargames #kriegsspiel


This week on the pod, Betsy Joslyn joins me to talk about her work in professional wargaming and the many design projects she has underway! youtu.be/sW6PwG3aNP0

I’ve been the reader and the skeleton here. Conveying how to the play the game is often the largest barrier for new players when approaching the game table. Name a #wargame you love with a difficult rulebook. Sebastian Bae Fort Circle Games @Volko26 Natalia Wojtowicz @CTReese2

Thanks to Fort Circle Games & @Volko26 for joining us at our Institute for Defense Analyses Microgame Project #IDAIMP event! Proud of what @akarsb & Betsy Joslyn have created here…community, collaboration, & games! Also very impressed what ppl from across the organization have designed. More to follow!


Thank you Beyond Solitaire and David Thompson 🇺🇦 🎗️ 💚 for teaching us how to play #NightWitches. This is a fantastic game on an extremely cool piece of history. Cant wait to play again #CircleDC #wargaming




“Let’s try dysentery.” Sorry Mexico! My US Marine troops are too well hydrated for your shenanigans! Had an absolute BLAST playing Fort Circle Games #HallsofMontezuma. Can’t wait to play again! #CircleDC #wargames


Here’s my recap of CircleDC this past weekend. Once again, amazing job by Kevin Bertram to pull this off! Fort Circle Games CircleDC 2024 - Field Report youtu.be/l9_eVKch3R8

It’s so important to have a strong facilitator when playing #Diplomacy. Doesn’t hurt that Nick Wernert can do it in multiple language. We had such a great time teaching the game to some fantastic Georgetown students. I’m thinking #Versailles1919 next?







Haven’t been x’ing. Too busy playing games. Shout out to Nick Wernert facilitating #Diplomacy for my #FundamentalsofWargamingAnalysis class Johns Hopkins University
