HI! and LOOKING FOR ORIGINAL GERMAN TEXT

[YogahofYag]

Greetings, all!
I've been wargaming for about 10 years now and studying the reprint of the Kriegsspiel rules by TFL.

Over the past two-three years I've been looking for the original rules in German, and even went so far as to contact Bill Leeson, but I was only told that the text is available in the British Library.

No US library collection apparently has it, and I even contacted a German military archive for information, but they told me they did not have it.

Does anyone know where I may locate the original German text for von Reisswitz's Kriegsspiel?

Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome.

I have no idea but maybe another member will be better informed.

My information from Bill is that he obtained his copy from the Militargeschichtliches Forschungamtes, Freiburg, Germany. He subsequently donated a photocopy to the National Army Museum Library, Chelsea, London.

Sorry. It looks as if the British Library reference was misleading.

Best regards & good luck

Thanks for the reply.
I had contacted the military archive in Freiburg am Breisgau a year or two previously. Their reply was that they did not have it.

The National Army Museum Library it is then.

Good luck.
