Looking Back In Anger

I Anticipate Somewhat

For tomorrow, various members of the SOTCW are going to engage in a wargame played via Discord.  The whole thing has been arranged by Richard - the one who lives in Storrs, not Spain - who will be the one actually moving men and machines around the battlefield/wargames table.  Myself and Phil will be playing the Germans of May 1940, as we invade France, and "Atomic Renegade" will be one of the French players.  Not sure if this is Andy or Jamie in real life.  We shall have to issue detailed orders to our units BUT WE CANNOT SEE THEM! as in real life, rather than the '600 Foot General' looming over a wargames table.  This means every possibility of making enormous boo-boos, again as in real life: you forget to issue orders to a crucial unit; you send the wrong orders to the wrong unit; you don't inform your superiors what you're doing; you lose track of the opposition; you broadcast orders in clear that the enemy immediately detect - you get the idea.


     So let us draw up the retrospective!
