EuroWarGames

An anthology of 17 in-depth articles written by influential voices in the field

An anthology on the evolution and identity of European wargaming.

EuroWarGames is a comprehensive 332-page volume that explores the vibrant and evolving world of European wargaming. Curated by respected experts Frédéric Serval, Riccardo Masini, and Jan Heinemann, the book presents a carefully assembled anthology of 17 in-depth articles written by some of the most influential voices in the field, including Maurice Suckling, Brian Train, Volko Ruhnke, and many others.

Far more than a historical overview, EuroWarGames delves into the transformation of wargaming from a niche pastime to a powerful tool now embraced by armed forces, businesses, educators, and analysts across Europe. While the influence of U.S.-based design remains significant, this volume highlights the distinct philosophies, innovations, and cultural perspectives that shape wargaming on the European continent.

Printed in full color with a softcover binding, this book is an essential reference for anyone interested in the design, theory, and practical use of wargaming — offering valuable insights to designers, scholars, and curious players alike.

EuroWarGames captures the past, interrogates the present, and looks toward the future of wargaming in Europe and beyond.
