STONK


This is a set of wargame rules intended to simulate actions between about one brigade equivalent a side, supported by divisional or even corps troops where they would have been available.

The basic philosophy of the rules can be summarized:
  1. That morale and leadership are decisive factors in these battles
  2. Logistics is a critical factor, even in the battalion battle and is too often overlooked,
  3. Communications, command and control are very influential and central to conducting a battle
  4. Planning – especially artillery fire planning is a vital part of the battle, and again is too often overlooked.
  5. That technology is generally over-rated and minor differences between, say, tank types have been given too great a prominence in wargame rules. I have attempted to redress this.
