This post is just for me to leave behind a record of my thoughts ... yes, a journal might be more efficient and successful, but this blog has always been primarily to archive my wargaming activities.
So anyone else ... stop reading here.
In 2025, I battled, as never before, a lack of wargaming enthusiasm and drive. I've struggled to determine a single cause as, with all things in life and history, there is never a 'single' cause.
To address this issue and avoid 'burn out' in 2026, I think I need to make myself a bit of a promise (hence the formal recording of this in my blog.) Its time for no more rules. I've chased and chased rules that just 'work' or 'pop' compelling me to play and exciting enthusiasm in my breast. But, I think this isn't realistic.
I've already declared my intention for this to be my 'medieval' year - and perhaps this might hold true - and I have enough of these rules including Lion Rampant, Baron's War, Pillage, MESBG and Dux Bellorum (as well as ADLG for my BIG battle hit.)
Simplifying my gaming regular club evenings is also a key aspect.
In short, if one of these don't work in 2026 ... buying another set won't help. But will I hold to this ... ???
(I could also apply similar comments to my ACW, Napoleonics, Colonials and 18th century periods.)
