Comments

Death Can Wait is a wargame designed to answer the question: How can we model an Army Field Hospital conducting preparation, deployment, operation, and a sequel mission, in a competitive board game? This game provides an opportunity for players to learn about the Field Hospital and to gain experience with common events that occur during operations; it also provides a framework for specialized unit training, and a tool for building teamwork and leaders. The following secondary questions were used to build the game: 1) what are the key dynamics that must be modeled for the game to accurately represent the Field Hospital, 2) how can the key aspects be modeled in a competitive board game, and 3) how to make the game approachable and playable?
