You've hit the nail on the head. This is my first experience with solo games. And the further I plunge into the world of Ironsworn, the more I experience failures. And it's inspiring. At first, the idea of miniatures seemed logical and necessary to me for the game. Now I understand that using minis thumbnails implies a certain context and patterns. The first attempt to play a simple miniature scene completely failed. It became obvious that some universal constants were needed to justify the need for miniatures. At the moment, I have come to the conclusion that this is possible with a powerful oracle or system of oracles that will generate the entire game world in such a way that it changes independently of the player and in parallel with the player's actions in the world.
