Kat and Kriegspiel - an intervention

 As the nights begin to draw in, thoughts are returning to FLW volume 2 - Garden Kriegspiel (HG's spelling).  As Jnr was down for the weekend, we decided to continue our Lancashire Territorial Force campaign - and the map phase.  

As Army Red and Blue clashed at the canal at Burscough Bridge, an advisor appeared.




Kat decided that the Army Blue QM should retire in a seawards dircetion ...


After further reflection, Kat decided that the QM should be evacuated from the Southport Pleasure Beach into the Irish Sea.


Having achived this mission, Kat began planning the Cyclist Brigade route to fall back on the defences of Southport ...


Kat is a keen student of Claws-witz and agrees with the great man;

'Although our intellect always longs for clarity and certainty, our nature often finds uncertainty fascinating.'

  1. My cat, Chloe, also maintains an intense interest in the goings on of battle. She has a special interest in the trees and frequently 'prunes' them.

  2. The role of cats in Little Wars - I think we could produce a very good exhibition!

  3. Perhaps an addition to FLW rules is in order: 'Random cat-astrophes' and 'The uses of cats in solo wargaming'.
