THE SIEGE OF DENDERMONDE - CLASSIC WARGAME CAMPAIGN

As a variety of Opposition forces, with the Communists in the van, approach the Government's hastily constructed "Dinmore Hill Line" (the last defensible geographical boundary before Hereford itself), the prospect of the County Capital being besieged (in due time) has occupied some of the 'wilder minds' in Fleet Street.

Just as well then, that Mike Lewis of the "Little Wars 1913" blog is planning a recreation of that classic wargame, as published in "Battle for Wargamers" magazine from December 1976, "The Siege of Dendermonde"....

Mike Lewis' blog contains a link to a PDF, compiled by Henry Hyde, containing a scan of all the original "Seige of Dendermonde" articles - a welcome addition to the Library.

For the PDF and Mike Lewis' plans, see HERE.

And just to prove that a good wargame never quite goes out of fashion, see HERE for the Vintage Wargaming Blog's equivalent entry, also containing Henry Hyde's PDF, dating as far back as June 2010....
