200 Years of Modern Wargaming: Kriegsspiel Now and Then (ACDC presentation, 13. January 2024)
2Kriegsspiel is the origin of modern wargaming. Introduced by Georg von Reisswitz in the Prussian army in 1824, the double-blind combat simulation emphasizing fog of war and command friction spread around the globe within a century and is still played today in its original form, but also enhanced and transformed by modern technology.
Paul and I, both master umpires and staff members at the International Kriegsspiel Society, had the great opportunity to give a presentation at the Armchair Dragoons Digital Convention in Winter 2024.
