Rules for the Conduct of the War-Game on a Map: 1896
Publisher: Felbrigg Herriot
In 1896, the British Government published this paper which formalized the adoption of wargaming in the Empire forces. The rules closely follow those created in 1812 by Reiswitz, under the German name of "Kriegsspiel."
These rules describe and give guidance on how a group of officers can use small blocks laid out on a large-scale map to represent various troops, and then issue orders to those troops. It further describes how those blocks move, and how the umpires act as both judges and messengers.
