Forces are manoeuvred on each player's gridsheet only until a clash is imrninent and then those units involved can be set up on the table. Any troops not visible to the enemy (e.g. behind hill A) can remain concealed by not setting them up on the table. Even during the course of the wargame, hidden forces can be left off the table c ^ although their positions will be fixed on the individual player's War- .2 Q- boards zone. This even enables one player to make covert speculative 15 §• moves to counter the opponent's probable tactics and this introduces S " a realistic Ignorance Factor to the game which is easy to operate. UJ % Ideally, an umpire is present to keep *an accurate record of both sides' a ® hidden movements and to rule on precisely when units come into sight. I- Q.
