Finally finished proofreading and editing a blog post that has been sitting unpublished for ages. More fun in the frozen city of Frostgrave

🎵I like big mechs and I cannot lie 🎵
Sunday morning #solowargaming finally got my #heavygear stuff together enough to actually play.
South vs CEF.
Close up photo of action on a wargaming table. A large monster with purplish-gray skin, long arms ending in long, clawed hands, an eyeless head that's little more than a wide mouth set with chisel-shaped teeth, standing on two thick, hooved legs, wanders into an alleyway; a woman in a green jacket with a ponytail is around a corner, hunting rifle at the ready, awaiting the monster's approach.
Squeezed in another solo game today. Played my next mission in Majestic 13, with a team at reduced capacity (down one person, and with another taking penalties to all rolls). Didn't defeat the monster, but made a strong showing nonetheless. #solowargaming #wargaming #majestic13
A wargaming terrain layout on a 3x3 mat; three trailers, a number of wrecked cars, two ponds, a large rocky hill and several clumps of dense vegetation.
Another view of the same table, viewed from 90 degrees to the left of the previous picture.
A huge, blubbery monster whose eyeless head is framed by huge, hanging mandibles, with a secondary mouth on its stomach, spines on its back and tentacles extending from the palms of its hands, stands on the porch of a trailer.
Set up this lovely table for Majestic 13 today, and then got my ass kicked so hard by the monster in the last pic that my team of alien hunters are going to be feeling it for the next few games. #solowargaming #wargaming #skirmishwargames #majestic13
Firefight along the tree line.
Comet in orchard blasts PDRT Command tank
Comet in orchard then blasts a another T54.
Overview burning tanks everywhere
Turns 2&3 of 7DTTRR #solowargaming #wargaming
PDRT assaults break on Fusiliers dug into a tree line.
More exploding T54s. One of my new Comets become an Ace tank, getting their 4th and 5th kills
A MiG knocks out a Comet!
Another strafing run knocks out a second Comet. But the Centaur AA tank reacts and scores a hit! The MiG is seen trailing smoke
Second wave arrives! Motor Rifles advance in the center behind a platoon of T54s.
A little more 7DTTRR tonight to finish Turn 1. Carl Gustav rockets from the wood line knock out one tank.
The Tartarians are down 12 Command Tokens, almost 1/3rd.

I'm sure last time it was mentioed it was #solowargaming. 👍
I think I use #solowargaming when I remember/bother to use hashtags at all
Hey fellow solo wargamers, are we using #sologaming or #solowargaming?
We certainly don't want to use hastag solo, for reasons....
J29 makes an ineffective strafing run. Those explosions are from tank fire.
Fusiliers dug along Forward Line of Resistance. Ferret armoured car from 2nd Dragoons Recce Sqdn observing the road
Another platoon of 1st Fusiliers dug in with a section of Comet tanks from 2nd Dragoons
Detachment of Gebirsjaegern on the mountainside.
Some more pictures of tonight's game

Additionally, got another solo game of Majestic 13 in tonight. The Last Liners got off to a rocky start, beginning the game injured, but managed to put the hurt on this week's monster regardless: dice-and-doubloons.blogspot.com/2026/02/maje... #wargaming #solowargaming #Majestic13

Finished my #solowargaming #Midgard tonight.
Carolianus Silex and the IXth Britannarium are victorious! A single crushing round has them beating the Goths all along the line and Legatus Duplicitous is routed from the field with -5 Reputation. Silex is at 10 Reputation.
Advance in the center. Carolianus on his white horse
Gothic cavalry pushing hard. Both commanders have gone down in the melee.
Forward! Carolianus leads a charge!
Roman cavalry on the back foot but regaining some initiative.
Some more #Midgard #solowargaming last night before dinner.
Cohort lead by Carolianus Silex crashing into Goths recruited by Duplicitous.
Cavalry busy murdering each other on the flank.
Then I got a headache and stopped.

Zhukov and the 1st Belorussian front move in to Berlin from the East. First play of Berlin: Fall of the Reich 1945, by @michael-rinella.bsky.social released by Revolution Games and Take Aim designs. Been wanting a game in this series for ages, so glad to finally get one. #solowargame #solowargaming
Solo C&C Ancients on a Friday night. Battle of Cannae.
Romans did the inevitable, chasing victory points.
Lenny threatened an early finish, but allowed play to commence.

Table with dice, a pen and the playing board of the game Siege Works.
Siege Works is a clever little solo roll & write game about conducting a siege during the Napoleonic Wars. I bought the print & play variant and just tried (and won!) the first scenario. Sieges are always difficult to transform into a game and this is an innovative approach. #solowargaming
First blog post of '26! Kit bashing some minis ready for Warriors of Athena - bsky.app/profile/ospr...

@djackthompson.bsky.social and @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social heavy January with first plays of Undaunted Normandy solo with Reinforcements, General Orders: Sengoku Jidai and Resist! @ospreygames.bsky.social @saltandpeppergames.bsky.social @25thcentury.games #wargames #solowargaming
Certainly we can just use #solowargaming and try and keep it going. But as a "proper" bluesky feed I think we we need to use an thirdparty app or this - github.com/bluesky-soci...
Simple guess: we post up & share more about #solowargaming to grow it as a trend? Not really sure. Know some historians have made up 'packs' where they lists other historians to connect up with. Reposted them yesterday.
How about icon/emoji (prompted: that pumpkin) to add to handles to start off?
So how do we turn #Solowargaming into a feed I can just opt to follow, like Too Fat Lardies #spreadthelard?
Me too...
*Ahem*
Anyway, one I'm dabbling with at the moment:

#SoloWargaming
I play solo and co-op and multiplayer. Never ever played Rhodesian Bush Wars.
Mind you I stay off Facebook! 😆
Perhaps we need to form our own Solo group on here. :) #SoloWargaming?

Playthrough thread of "Thunder at Lützen" is finished. Glad I finally got it on the table, what a gem! Randomizing the allied entries created a nice narrative for two-handed solo play. #wargaming #solitaire #solowargaming #boardgames
And a little bit of print and play Battle for Moscow to finish the evening. #boardwargames #hexandcounter #solowargaming
Game of #memoir'44 using stuka Joe solo system. Americans freshly painted, now to start on the Germans. #solowargaming #wargames
How will the servants of the Emperor face the deep corruption in the heart of the refinery world Tamelius VI?
With Conviction!
Tomorrow the newest solo Actual Play series is coming to the Lone Toad.
