Museum of Culpeper History- Fire When Ready! Historical Strategy Gaming

People have engaged in warfare simulations for centuries, from rules for playing with toy soldiers to exacting map exercises with rigid rules for military training. Game designer Peter Schweighofer presents an introduction to historical simulation gaming and discusses how wargames serve as a useful tool for exploring historic events, including a simple Civil War game demonstration.

This program will be held at the museum. Admission is $5 per person but Museum members get in FREE.
