I played 40k, Warmachines, Infinity and several niche wargames like Freebooters Fate, Pulp City andDark Age. I organized events, leagues and tournaments. I did demos.During that period I had given up on RPGs. It was too difficult to find good players and maintain a stable group. It was much easier to find wargamers for 1 vs 1 games. I also did not play board games. I was happy gluing, painting and playing miniature wargames. It was a fun period until it wasn’t fun anymore. Constant edition changes, army list changes and new stronger units destroyed my enthousiasm.In 2014, I bought and tried D&D 5e. We played for six months but soon the same problems of keeping a stable group together happened. I gave up on campaigns. Instead I organized one-shots of various RPGs. It was an interesting time. That is how I found a group willing to commit serioulsy to a D&D campaing. We played for one year and it was great, just like the old times in the 80. But Covid and a divorce between two players put an end to that.That is when I look at my large collection of games and remembered I used to play Barabarian Prince, an 80s solo adventure game with a map. A quick search on the internet showed me how to play almost any type of game solo. EUREKA.To funny thing, is that without trying, I’m now in a stable RPG group, we play board games from time to time, I play with my wife and I play solo games weekly. I occasionnaly play historical miniature wargames against a select group of players. Mostly Dark Age and Antiquity. It’s a good life.</blockquote>
