Joseph Morschauser’s How to Play War Games in Miniature: A Forgotten Wargaming Pioneer Early Wargames Vol. 3

Rate this book
In many ways, the book introduced modern wargaming concepts such as a single base for a unit, gridded movement, speed of play and original combat system. It was very different from the development of the H.G. Wells rules by Donald Featherstone and others. Although photographs of the Morshauser game were included in Donald Feathersone's Advanced War Games, the book did not contain the rules or any further information about this early war game. This edition The original book How to Play War Games in Miniature Rules for ancient, musket and the 'modern period' Additional articles by Morschauser An adaption of the rules for the modern period Biographical notes The History of Wargaming Project is edited by John Curry. It aims to present the very best wargaming books and rules to a modern audience.

These rules seem so fun and delightful. I would love to try playing miniature historical war games some day … if I could find the figurines.
