How Soon is Too Soon to Wargame a Conflict

Is There Such a Thing as "Too Soon" in Wargaming? In this video, I revisit a question from the Joy of Six 2025 panel: When is it too soon to wargame a historical or current conflict? It’s a topic that sits at the crossroads of ethics, storytelling, and historical accuracy in our hobby. From civilian casualties and sensitive subject matter to how public your game is, I explore why context and audience matter more than ever in how we represent the past on the tabletop. Whether you see wargaming as entertainment, education, or a bit of both, we can’t ignore the tough questions. Should we include war crimes? What about modern conflicts still in the headlines? Is historical wargaming at risk of becoming too sanitised? I also reflect on my experience at the Joy of Six show, including a surprise appearance on the discussion panel alongside Peter Berry, Per Broden, and Heretical Wargaming. Join me for a thoughtful dive into how we balance respect, realism, and storytelling—and let me know where you draw the line. #wargamingethics #historicalwargames #joyofsix2025 #baccus6mm #wargamingcommunity #modernconflicts #wargamertalk #miniaturewargaming #contextmatters #toosoontowargame
