Wargaming is arguably the precursor to RPGs, via games like Chainmail[en.wikipedia.org], yet while RPGs and Wargames do largely differ, there are areas that share concepts; one key one is narrative. Just as in an RPG the players create the story, so in a Wargame there is a story about why the belligerents are fighting. We’re also seeing more and more wargames leaning into the idea of why more story in a wargame is a good idea! This panel will roll 6d6 to discuss!

Panel order of battle is:

Precinct Omega[www.precinctomega.co.uk]’s Robey Jenkins (The panel quartermaster!)
Legendary Ogre creator Steve Jackson (He/Him)
Wartile developer Michael Rud
Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics writer John Houlihan (He/Him)
Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics & Ogre producer Nina Collins (She/Her)
Warhammer 40,000 Battlesector developer Paul Turbett (He/Him)
