Obviously, The Wargame Vault is the primary source for new rules out on the market from Indie publishers.

What has been your favorite "find" for a wargame on the site?





For me, I was really happy with Age of Hannibal (which I did not know, but was from the Little Wars TV folks). I have also really enjoyed the Super Systems 4th edition book I got as well.

Void Admiral!

Now I will admit I did not find out about this game through the Wargame Vault. I watch GMG and he did a series of games on it so I bought the book, along with the expansion. It really scratches that Battlefleet Gothic itch/

Wargames vault does provide a bunch of new factions though if anyone wanted to pick them up.

While not on Wargame Vault, definitely qualifies as indie: Quar! I'd been seeing the models for a while and was intrigued, and on a whim happened to get the 2 player starter at a random trip to the LGS. Turns out, it's actually a great little WW1-era tech, skirmish scale game with muppet anteaters. Rules are also available for free as PDFs off of Zombiesmith's site (and a new, revised and expanded rulebook is due by end of year).

Another vote for Void Admiral. I was actually pointed at it by other dakkanauts but it really does exactly what I want for a space battle game and has resulted in me scratchbuilding an imperial fleet and finally building a chaos fleet.

I really like that it retains the feel of BFG but with more newbie friendly mechanics.

Heyooo I found Void Admiral before Ash posted it
Same author now also has a Gaslands clone and a platoon level dark fantasy skirmish

The rulebook s are full of fun art and flavor text. I’ve only played a couple games, but the rules seemed fine for a fun, unserious gaming experience.

I really need to check and see if more expansions have come out.

Second favorite is whatever the Horizon Wars guy is working on now.
