Die Kriegskunst.

Die Kriegskunst is the Seven Years War version of General de Brigade. We have played these rules a few times now but I am still trying to get the hang of them.

The game this week was hosted by Chris at his new wargames room. He has named the room "The Donald Featherstone Suite" and to use his words "in honour of the recently departed great man, whose writing I remember fondly". His room boasts a 12 foot by 6 foot table!!!

The Prussians are on the attack and the Austrians are in defence.  For the Prussians to win they need to capture the two town areas and destroy one infantry Division.

 The Prussians march forward.....

At this point we called it for the night.

Part two will be fought this Wednesday night coming.
