Kriegspiel, pistols drawn version

Kriegspiel was created by Guy Debord based on the military strategy of Carl von Clausewitz. Debord’s first versions of the game were being played in the 50s and it was refined until the rulebook was made (1977), 5 metal versions were created (and used in the film In girum Imus Nocte et Consumimur Igni) and, finally, the game was mass produced on cardboard with wood tiles (1987).

Our version of Kriegspiel is the first (un)official version, that I am aware of, in English. It would not have been possible without the work done by Len Bracken in his book Guy Debord – Revolutionary.

Our version includes a board made of archival bookbinding board, hand painted pieces, and letterpressed text.
