Game Popularity by Rules
I individually listed only rules that have been played multiple times. The “other” column, therefore, consists of rules that were only utilised once.
The columns for the rules "Sword and Spear" and "Blucher" include variants devised by Andy GPT.
The games played only once in the year were Basic Impetus, Beneath the Lily Banners, Clash of Spears, Combat HQ, Conquest of the Empire (board game), Contemptible Little Armies, Eagles of the Empire, Furioso, Gods and Mortals, Hail Caesar, Maurice (Andy GPT adaptation), Modern Spearhead, Pony Wars, Ronin, Sepoys and Soldiers, Si Vis Pacem, Team Yankee, Warmachine, WW1 Spearhead, WW2 Spearhead.
Comparison to 2021
The proportion of games played with 28mm figures remained virtually the same as last year but the percentage of 15mm games went up significantly, from 22% to 34%. There was a big drop in the popularity of Too Fat Lardies' rules. In terms of period, although WW2 remained the most popular, there were big increases in Ancient, Modern and Fantasy games.
