This video introduces the viewer to a particular set of wargame rules by Arty Conliffe. They are unusual in many ways, perhaps chief among these their simplicity, their lack of a turn sequence, and their not needing measurements with rulers. I argue that they produce realistic results, and are fun to play.
This may seem like one long commercial for a set of wargame rules, but there is more to come about this which should make my motives clear. .
Merchandise still not sorted out, but soon(ish), possibly.

Would be great to see Lindy have a game of this against someone to show exactly how it works

Watches Lindy for like a year "HMM I'd like to get into wargames but I want ww1/2 era games" YouTube search "WW2 wargame Clicks random video, on mobile so no name in the pre-view Camera shoot "What a nice setting" Jump cut, suddenly Lindy "Wait what."

Hey! I demand a "battle report" of this! I don't care if it's a 20-30-minute video or more, I want to see you play it!
-
Bought the book, convinced a friend to join and bought two companies of infantry per player. At this point we've only played 2 games, but we've spent tens of hours crafting the miniatures and terrain. So much fun.
-
I'd be interested in here more about this game Lindybeige. I've personally always been interested in table-top gaming, 40k and D&D but finding a community has the hardest part, so I must live through other peoples eyes like yours, so please do atleast a couple more videos on this topic!

"It's exciting, fluid" and not available on German Amazon.
-
How's the online multiplayer? Does it lag?
-
I'd love to see more videos like this, I could honestly watch a full 30 minutes if it were that long
-
Sounds really fun, hearing you talk about it got me all excited.
-
Hmm, I've got it! Send both squads of Space Marines into a charge up the center and use your Whirlwind rocket artillery tank to decimate anyone who exposes himself to take a shot! Wait, oh.
-
This sounds fun also I’ve been wanting to checkout H.G. Wells Little Wars. I feel you could use any scale for these type of rule sets for wargaming
-
I think I'd really enjoy more videos on this game. You seem to really be enthusiastic about it, which is always an awesome thing in your videos. Maybe you could go in depth a little more about how some of the mechanics work and why they works so well in making you "think like a commander" compared to other wargames, or something like that. Definitely interesting. I'll have to look this game up :)

0:26 You have a Finnish version of The Lord of The Rings board game?
-
Would it be possible to have you upload a play session of Crossfire? It looks really neat
-
For us wargame-fans, I don't suppose there's the future possibility of having a full match recorded? Would mean more work for you, but since some people like trimmed and edited material and others like to see the entire process (especially when things don't go quite according to plan... every double take, every light-bulb moment is wickedly awesome to see) it may be worth it. By the way, how long did it take to set up that magnificent table? Is there any upper limit on the size of the playing field beyond whatever you have available? Could it even be possible for people to play a 1:1 scale match, using real people and life-size props? Because that... would be the most awesome thing I've ever seen.

More videos about Crossfire please!
-
Its great to see one of the classic rules sets being discussed, though its not one I've evere relay looked at before. Great vid.
-
Dear LB, that was simply marvellous, all three videos, what a great job. Cheers!
-
Any have any input as to how adaptable this rule system would be for a scifi setting as compared to oh say warhammer 40k miniatures??? GW's rules generally suck. lol
-
I still come back this video time and again out of fascination. Wish youd come back to it in greater detail
