I've always been interested in the topic and I know fair amount about it, but I did a deep dive into reading lots of memoirs and training manuals and scholarly analyses, and it occurred...]]></description><link>https://www.wargamelibrary.com/post/sam-mustafa</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a2f4402d1a315f327812db6</guid><category><![CDATA[Speaker Series]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 00:20:35 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35528e_36618a55430e431f99f1c5a6d48bbc2c~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Chief Librarian</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jay White]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Wargame Library Speaker Series continues with Jay White, author of This Hallowed Ground, as well as Empires at War, Beat to Quarters, and more. Visit his blog, Jay's Wargaming Madness, to learn more. Your blog has become quite the hub for your free rules. What motivated you to start developing and publishing your own systems? As a baseline I try to avoid writing my own rules and try to focus on first creating a solid rules reference for an existing system.  Early on I did that for a large...]]></description><link>https://www.wargamelibrary.com/post/jay-white</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a2f439bfe786dfb93832ee6</guid><category><![CDATA[Speaker Series]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 00:13:36 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35528e_ac03148aad6141ea84a7d026a31788dc~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Chief Librarian</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Craig Cartmell]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Wargame Library Speaker Series continues with Craig Cartmell, author of FUBAR, as well as In Her Majesty's Name, Daisho, Blood Eagle, and Thud &#38; Blunder. Visit the Ministry of Gentlemanly Warfare to learn more. What was the original design goal behind Fubar?  It began as a simple set of rules for my own amusement, an exercise in minimalism. Could I create a set of rules on a single page? My original intention was to produce a set of one page rules for World War Two skirmish games, but...]]></description><link>https://www.wargamelibrary.com/post/craig-cartmell</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a2f3fb8d1a315f327812710</guid><category><![CDATA[Speaker Series]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 00:01:59 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35528e_14d87828540844ae96174b8f94547cf8~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Chief Librarian</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Frank Sultana]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Wargame Library Speaker Series continues with Frank Sultana, author of Blood on the Sands. To learn more about the game, visit the official homepage. What did you feel was missing from existing gladiator games that you wanted to capture in blood on the sands? Having played most of the other gladiator systems out there, I often found them lacking in one key respect: the combat felt static. What should be tense, mobile, and dramatic duels too often became two fighters standing in place,...]]></description><link>https://www.wargamelibrary.com/post/frank-sultana</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a2dc51544c7bef1d031086c</guid><category><![CDATA[Speaker Series]]></category><pubDate>Sat, 13 Jun 2026 21:10:50 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35528e_f15d0972ad274825bbb19faefef4dce4~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Chief Librarian</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Grand Opening!]]></title><description><![CDATA[There's never been a better time to be a miniature wargamer...and yet, finding great games has never been more difficult. In the age of self publishing and internet distribution, thousands of game systems jockey for our limited attention and hobby time. Hundreds of those games are shared freely by generous authors and publishers. Some have become household names, while most quietly fade into obscurity thanks to dead blogs, broken links, or the constant churn of new games being released every...]]></description><link>https://www.wargamelibrary.com/post/grand-opening</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a2cdb78b00e8ceeb1fee782</guid><category><![CDATA[News]]></category><pubDate>Sat, 13 Jun 2026 04:55:07 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35528e_1b320f4e4bcc476e92c6131e521ba199~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_946,h_946,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Chief Librarian</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our Badge System]]></title><description><![CDATA[If you search our catalog by Recommended "Favorites," the filtered results include wargames awarded with one of our library's four badges. We use badges to help library visitors discover exceptional games and to highlight systems that excel in a particular area. Because these distinctions are meant to be meaningful, we deliberately award them sparingly. Not every game in the library carries a badge, and that's by design.
