Where it came from
The Great Redoubt was published in 1979 by Yaquinto Publications, a firm notable during the late 1970s for their distinctively packaged, often boxed wargames. The game is set in the science-fantasy universe of the Gor series, created by John Norman. It was designed to simulate the siege and defense of a colossal fortress within the world of Gor, catering to the growing market of hobbyist strategy gamers who were interested in blending tactical combat with the specific literary lore of the time.
The game design reflects the period's interest in hex-and-counter wargaming, utilizing map boards and detailed rulebooks to replicate military logistics on a small, tactical scale. Its visual presentation, characteristic of Yaquinto's catalog, featured stark, thematic artwork meant to evoke the brutalist and ancient atmosphere of the Gor novels. While it garnered interest from fans of the series and established wargamers, it remains a niche artifact from a time when small-press publishers frequently adapted popular cult literature into tabletop simulations.
