Solo Slow Wargaming: Crusades

Why Slow Wargaming?

I don't only nor predominantly wargame solo. It is fun to have the camaraderie, banter and friendly 'contest' of wargaming with others and I am fortunate to be involved with wargamers who play the games in that manner. Whether solo or with others, I enjoy 'slow wargaming'—the way that I originally did when Dad and I began in the 1980s—taking time over all aspects of our broad hobby.
I have a focus on the history, so really enjoy researching a period, collecting and slooooowly painting figures and then, playing the odd game over a number of sessions as and when time is available to add to my understanding and appreciation of the history. I also like to trial and to tinker with rules, adapting or adjusting as I see fit and then throwing out the changes (or entire sets of rules) that did not work (for me)!
When playing solo, I do not see the need for special systems, but simply play to win for both sides. You always end up out-witting yourself, or making a stupid mistake and get beaten!
