Kriegspiel, Avalon Hill Designed by Tom Shaw 1970

Kriegspiel, Avalon Hill Designed by Tom Shaw 1970 I bought Kriegspiel off eBay with the intention of using it for my wargaming campaigns. I chose Kriegspiel as I could use it with all my wargaming periods.

Kriegspiel is a full scale wargame between two nations. In the advanced book it says of all the games in the Avalon Hill line. Kriegspiel best suited for introducing novices to the growing science of game strategy. A basic traditional hex and counter turn based wargame, units having combat and movement factors. Combat results are done by computing odds. (1-1, 1-2, 3-1, etc) and using a CRT by cross referencing one of 4 defending strategies and 3 attacking strategies (no dice). Victory is by reducing the opponent to 20 combat factors or occupying all of the opposing cities. Advanced game adds reinforcements, weather, air power, supply, etc.
