What is Wargaming?

So, what do you think "wargaming" is? Is it strictly tabletop games with miniatures and rolling dice? Let's find out!

In military terms, "wargames" are combat simulations used to emulate or reenact real battles or situations. Soldiers gain far more from real experience than from a textbook, after all. This means that the tabletop combat idea is not far off from military wargames. However, in most popular collectible card games (Magic the Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh!) two players are also doing battle! Does this mean that card games are "combat simulations" as well? I believe so. I think that as a "wargamer" you can enjoy tabletop games, card games or both!

That's how I feel about "wargaming"! Now, this doesn't mean I will not make CCG-specific blog, but I did want to show how similar the two kinds of games are. As always, thanks for reading!
