Open Playtest The Sirens of Siloam — game cover

The Sirens of Siloam

The Siloam Series • Chapter 1

The Vangarian army has landed on the beaches of Siloam. You are a soldier turned political outsider, appointed to command the allied defense because you are the most expendable. A reluctant ally is looking for the exit, a kingdom is falling apart from within, and a resistance leader in the highlands could save you or destroy everything.

About the Designer

Henri Whitehead

Henri Whitehead

Educator • Wargamer • Designer

Based in Southwest Missouri and working at a community college by day. Outside the classroom, he keeps busy with plenty of hobbies both indoor and outdoor — but his real passion is board games, and historical wargaming sits at the top of that pile.

It started with Combat Commander. One play and the hobby had its hooks in. Since then, the goal has been straightforward: make wargaming less intimidating without watering it down. Take what makes wargames rewarding and strip away the reasons people bounce off them — games deep enough to satisfy and clean enough to actually get to the table.
