Submitted my postcard wargame, “A Holiday in Flanders, Dec. 1914” to the Postcards from the Front Game Jam https://rikaru.itch.io/a-holiday-in-flanders-dec-1914 I think I’ve got as much gameplay as I could fit in the format. Cards, dice, hex, and counters. Only thing missing to make it a ‘real’ #wargame is a combat result table.

If you're making a game set in the Middle Ages and you don't include /at least/ one reference to the Filioque Controversy, I feel like you need to reconsider your priorities.
