    Found this post on a just closed ‘jam’ about creating a wargame that fits on a postcard (5×7 inch card for you youngsters)

    Despite the filter at the side, the games are PDFs with over 40 games ranging from space through bomb disposal to insect warfare being available.

    Note membership is not required to download them (but is to vote).

    As an aside – if you fancy sending and receiving postcards with unknown people, pop to https://www.postcrossing.com/ and sign up.

    What a interesting find Andrew.  I glanced at a few – by being forced into such a constraining format, the authors have come up with some clever, elegant designs.

    I think I’ll have to look at a lot more – there are some great ideas and inspirations there!  Thanks!

    Interesting.  Lou Coatney has some postcard WWII games too.
