Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

I don't know if it would be considered a "war game", but I miss playing Junta. I played it a lot in college, and haven't played it since.

I'd say rumours of wargaming's demise are greatly exaggerated!

I'd say we're experiencing the second golden age of wargaming. Look at the immense catalogue of terrific recent wargames. Look at the vibrancy of the community.

Sure, a print-run today might only be in the 2000-5000 spectrum. But many more wargames are produced per year than in the past. Consumer choice has never been better.
