About this title

Synopsis

"Comprising 10 sand table exercises suitable for NCOs of the Regular Army and Territorial Army and for Cadets of Officers' Training Corps. With 8 maps, over 50 sand table problems and solutions, and 20 questions and answers suitable for NCOs' promotion examinations."

Sand tables employ a three-dimensional terrain model made from sand and various props to provide a visual representation of the situation described in the tactical decision game.

This is an excellent Gale & Polden manual with good clear instructions that will be of good use to military wargamers. Sand tables have been used for military planning and wargaming for many years as a field expedient, small-scale map, and in training for military actions.
