I’m pleased to announce that the In Hoc Signo Society (IHSS) is going to launch its first online miniature wargame campaign. Preliminary discussion on our Guilded server suggested that the members were most interested in a sci-fi campaign, with no particular restrictions as to the rules or miniature scales used. Battles will be fought by our members at their own tables, and the results of those battles will be submitted to inform the overall course of the campaign.
One of the proposals for the campaign setting was one I’ve been building out for several years, a kind of Boxer Rebellion in Space.
We are still working out the details of reporting, as well as campaign maps. If you wish to join in the planning effort, join us on Guilded.
