Iberian Railways
Buy into companies before their best connections are built, let other shareholders finance mutually useful track, and take loans only when the new income outruns the penalty.
Tonari
Look beyond the fish you take now: preserve future routes, deny high-value skills, and track which neighbor’s score will be combined with yours.
Word Traveler
Use clue pairs that describe both direction and landmark, place arrows deliberately, and let the group test one interpretation before adding more words.
Traces of Hubris
Preserve supply corridors, plan several useful activations instead of one perfect sequence, and judge when the Soviet defense should yield ground to protect its counterstroke.
1ers Contacts
Agents should compare every clue before spreading out, while the alien must disguise purposeful movement as ordinary terrain avoidance.
Chrono Fall: At the End of Space and Time
Share action priorities before committing dice, keep one hero positioned to answer event-driven threats, and treat time as a team resource rather than four separate turn budgets.
Next War: Iran
Set logistical objectives before chasing tactical victories, protect ports and airfields that sustain later turns, and coordinate strike timing with the ground force that can exploit it.
The Day Was Ours: First Bull Run (July 21, 1861)
Build plans that still function when the wrong formation activates, protect exhausted brigades from an unlucky draw, and use roads to keep reserves relevant to both flanks.
Akros
Choose terrain that improves both movement and majority pressure, use each titan’s asymmetry rather than mirroring the opponent, and protect influence in all three environments.
Nations In Arms: Valmy To Waterloo
Maneuver forces across tactical or historical battle maps.
Stargard Solstice
Maneuver forces across tactical or historical battle maps.
Battles of Medieval Britain: A Solitaire Wargame
Study the scenario objective before moving, preserve favorable terrain, and avoid exposing a strong unit merely to gain a low-odds attack; the compact map makes every lost tempo visible.
The Battles of Rhode Island & Newport
Treat artillery position and movement tempo as a single problem: committing too early can strand fire support, while waiting too long may concede the terrain and initiative your attack requires.
Pantheum: Demigods of Olympia
Build landscapes that advance more than one scoring route, and recruit demigods whose powers stack in the same action column so each future turn improves in efficiency.
The Sheep
Assign responsibilities before night begins and preserve enough lanterns to absorb a bad pollution turn; simultaneous choices are strongest when everyone understands the shared priority.
Echoes: Die Violine
Coordinate shared actions while clues or threats pressure the group.
Behind: Purple
Begin by identifying the dimensions the tile count permits, then separate direct edge matches from clues that describe order, cause, or hierarchy.
Live Mission Game: The Heist – Crime Does Pay
Assign evidence categories before launching the mission and agree on who will relay decisions; real-time play leaves little room to reorganize later.
Battles of Napoleon: Volume I – EYLAU 1807
Protect army fatigue as carefully as terrain objectives; aggressive orders gain tempo but can collapse an army that spends its strength too early.
Starfire Ii
Maneuver forces across tactical or historical battle maps.
Rogue Trooper
Play linked scenarios where mission goals shape each session.
Italy ’43
Protect supply and prepare each river or mountain assault before committing; forcing the pace without favorable odds usually spends scarce steps faster than it gains ground.
Cubed: Next Level Dominoes
Plan precise moves in an abstract spatial duel.
Littoral Commander: Indo-pacific
Play command cards to maneuver forces across tactical battle maps.
