Record Cards

by Don Featherstone

If you use record cards for your wargaming, on which you note down the movements of formations at the beginning of each game-move, you will find that you use up a lot of sheets of paper in the course of a year.

Why not carefully draw up a chart, using Indian ink or a heavy black felt-tip pen, attach it to a piece of hardboard and then cover it with a sheet of transparent plastic.(see MUST LIST).

Movements of troops and other necessary information can be marked on with a wax chinograph pencil and rubbed off at the end of the game, leaving the record sheet ready for the next battle.
