Probably slightly more attractive than trolling I'd guess?
...Then hopefully some games that involve some thinking and a bit of chance.
What game? More a case of what rules? Some people might like a certain ruleset. Say Hail Caesar or Rapid Fire and then would research and build armies to suit the period of those rules. Ancients and World War 2 respectively. Other people may just be interested in a period in history or fantasy for that matter. So would look for a range of figures and rules that they like.
... if you do not know anything about wargaming, what triggered you to inquire about it?
Most games involve two or more players but there are solo players.Where do you live? Why don't you are if there is a gaming community in your area?
Wargames are basically a simulation of armed conflict on a tabletop, using miniatures. these conflicts can be historical, fantasy or science fiction in nature.Most games are played between two players, like a game of chess with loads more variables. But there are also solo games and games with more players on each side. And there are many, many rules sets out there, to cater to all the different types of games.For most of the people on this forum, it's interest in a certain period of history and its conflicts that sparked their interest. And exposure to wargaming through either magazines, friends or family that game, or some other way, made them curious and start gaming themselves. These people enjoy the historal accuracy of their games.Then there are those who really like the modeling aspect of the hobby, started painting miniatures and eventually were exposed to the games through that. Most of these gamers value their games, miniatures and terrain looking as good as possible.A final way of getting involved is by being really into games in general. Often starting with board games and moving on to wargaming, these people are all about the rules and can sometimes be very competitive as a result. They like their games more in a tournament style.And of course most people are a mix of the above, leaning more this way or that.But let's reverse the question; if you do not know anything about wargaming, what triggered you to inquire about it?
