War Games

Conflict simulation is one of the oldest and deepest traditions in tabletop gaming. Hex-and-counter wargames, block wargames, card-driven games, and operational simulations have been modeling military history since the hobby's earliest days. From from ancient warfare to Napoleonic, World War I and World War II to hypothetical modern conflicts, there is a wargame to re-create any conflict.

Noble Knight has been one of the most trusted sources for wargames across that entire arc. We carry titles from the publishers who defined the genre, including Avalon Hill, SPI, GMT, Decision Games, Multi-Man Publishing, Academy Games, Compass Games, along with hundreds of smaller publishers whose titles rarely appear anywhere else. Our inventory spans the full spectrum: new releases from active publishers, used copies of modern classics, and out-of-print titles from the golden era of wargame design, increasingly difficult to find in any condition. The wargame community is exacting, and we've spent decades earning its trust. Our buyers know this category, including the publishers, the printings, the editions, and the games worth seeking out.

We purchase new items directly from hundreds of game publishers and distributors across the USA and internationally. Every pre-owned item we purchase is hand-inspected and graded by our experienced team using our detailed grading system. Noble Knight has been buying, selling, and trading used games since 1997, making us one of the most trusted sources for out-of-print and hard-to-find gaming products.

Noble Knight uses a detailed grading scale from Shrink Wrapped to Fair. Shrink Wrapped (SW) means factory sealed; the condition visible through the wrap is noted. Mint (M) means perfect, brand new condition. Near Mint (NM) means like-new with only the slightest wear. Excellent (EX) means lightly used, but almost like new, and may show very small spine creases or slight corner wear, but no tears or marks. Board and wargames in Excellent condition are considered punched unless noted as unpunched. Very Good (VG) means clearly used, complete, and usable. Fair means well-used but complete. Every item is hand-inspected and strictly graded. A dual grading system is used when the exterior differs significantly from the interior. For example, a boxed item may be graded with: 'box condition/contents condition' notation.
