If you're interested in different approaches that the NatSec/practitioner communities take to wargaming, you should check out Connections Online next week.

Where most of the Connections conferences are physical ones (US, UK, North, Oz, etc) this one is completely virtual, so you can follow along from home.

The theme is on Red-Teaming, and most of the presentations revolve around different approaches and ideas about it.

The majority of the conference are seminars & panels that invite audience questions & interaction, and there's a lively Discord that acts as the "home base" for the conference.

First events are Monday, the "core" events run Tuesday–Thursday, and a few more on Friday/Saturday.

Thanks for the link. I created an account but when I try to buy a ticket (the price is great $0.00) nothing is added to my cart and I don't see away to view which tickets I picked up.

Surely I am missing clicking on a button or something?

A quick discussion of wargaming recourses,

And should be:
