They say that amateurs talk tactics, while professionals talk Logistics. However, when you look at most tabletop miniature games logistics is rarely mentioned. In a basic sense, the logistics is making sure your units have ammo, food, fuel, etc. that keeps them in fighting trim. Forces with poor logistics tend to have a tougher time fighting against a better logistical prepared foe. Many times, strategy is about creating those logistical mis-matches.
On the blog, we take a deeper dive into this little utilized aspect of Miniature Wargaming. Why the topic is avoided, some games that take advantage of it, and why it could be useful as a designer. I look forward to your thoughts!
