Blog Post of the Week

We just started another project for PLP, and as you may know from my previous post, that project was our first full podcast episode. We aren’t done with podcasting yet though, because we are making another episode for our latest project, which is all about WW2. This topic fits in better with the theme of my podcast, which is about Warhammer 40,000, which is a bit like WW2 in space.

However, there was another aspect of similarity that I decided to focus on instead. Wargaming is a type of game where models are used to like armies on a battlefield, which is pretty much what Warhammer is. However, it isn’t always just a game, and before computer simulations were a thing, lots of real world militaries used miniature wargames to simulate battles or military strategies.

In WW2 various countries used wargaming to try and predict the outcome of certain events or try out new strategies. This creates a great opportunity for me to cover Warhammer and WW2 at the same time by going over the history of Wargaming. Now that I have his solid baseline for what I’m going to do, I am ready for the whatever comes next in this project. I’ll keep you updated through these weekly posts, so stay tuned!
