GAME OF BATTLE.
INVENTED BY
COLONEL CHARLES RICHARDSON,

NEW YORK:
C. B. RICHARDSON, PUBLISHER,
540 BROADWAY.

Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1866,
By CHARLES B. RICHARDSON,
In the Clerk’s Office of the District Court of the United States for the
Southern District of New York.
COMPOSITION
OF

THE GAME OF BATTLE.


The Game of Battle represents two antagonistic armies, one of
which, the Attacking (or Invading) Army, is composed of four figures,
each representing a regiment of Light Infantry; five figures, each
representing a regiment of Infantry of the Line; two figures, each
representing a regiment of Cavalry; two figures, each representing a
battery of Artillery; and one figure (a wagon), representing the
“Supply Train,” in which it is to be supposed is carried all of the
subsistence, ordnance stores, etc., necessary for the maintenance
and effectiveness of the army.
The object of the Attacking Army will be to capture the Citadel.
The other army, called the Defending Army, is composed of four
figures, each representing a regiment of Light Infantry; five figures,
each representing a regiment of Infantry of the Line; two figures,
each representing a regiment of Cavalry; two figures, each
representing a battery of Artillery; and one figure, the Citadel,
representing a city in which are arms, ammunition, foundries,
subsistence supplies, and all kinds of government property, which it
is of vital importance to hold.
The object, therefore, of the Defending Army will be to secure the
Citadel against capture.
RULES
OF

THE GAME OF BATTLE.


Light Infantry moves one, two, or three squares, at the discretion of
the player, directly forward, right or left obliquely, and one or two
squares in any other direction, and can[A] take Light Infantry,
Infantry of the Line, Cavalry, and Artillery.
Infantry of the Line moves one or two squares in any direction, at
the discretion of the player, and takes Light Infantry, Infantry of the
Line, Cavalry, and Artillery.
Cavalry moves one, two, or three squares, at the discretion of the
player, in any direction, and takes Light Infantry, Infantry of the Line,
Cavalry, and Artillery.
Artillery moves one, two, or three squares, at the discretion of the
player, diagonally, and can[B] take Artillery, but cannot take Light
Infantry, Infantry of the Line, or Cavalry, though it can check them;
that is, neither of those figures can come within the range of the
Artillery, except when protected by Artillery of its side; in which case
Light Infantry, Infantry of the Line, Cavalry, or Artillery, can move on
the first square next to the Artillery of their side; but Light Infantry,
Infantry of the Line, or Cavalry, cannot occupy the second or third
square; nor can either of the last-named figures occupy the first
square next to the Artillery of their side, if it is also the first square
next to the Artillery of the other side. Artillery can be placed there,
but of course could be taken by the Artillery of the other side. See
Plate 2, Figure 1.
Artillery does not cover (or command) the second or third square
from it when a figure intervenes. See Plate 2, Figure 2.
When a piece of artillery bears on a figure of the other side that is
not on the first square next to the Artillery of its side, if Cavalry,
Light Infantry, or Infantry of the Line, it must move out of range of
Artillery. See Plate 2, Figure 3.
Artillery cannot be moved leaving a figure of Cavalry, Light Infantry,
or Infantry of the Line, of its side, in range of Artillery of the
opposite side. See Plate 2, Figure 4.
Artillery cannot take the Citadel; but when placed so as to command
it, the defending party must bring some figure to the defence, and
take or drive off the Artillery of the attacking party before moving
otherwise.
Artillery cannot take the Wagon; but when a piece of Artillery of the
defending side is placed so as to bring the Wagon within its range, if
the attacking party cannot take that piece of Artillery, then the
Wagon must be moved out of its range.
The Wagon cannot occupy the second or third square from its
Artillery, if that square is in range of the Artillery of the defending
side; nor can it occupy the first square next to the Artillery of its
side, if it is also the first square next to the Artillery of the defending
side.
Should all of the figures of a side be taken except the Artillery, that
side loses the game, as Artillery cannot take the Citadel or Wagon.
Light Infantry, Infantry of the Line, or Cavalry, can take the Citadel
or Wagon.
The capture of the Citadel or Wagon will decide the game.
REMARKS
ILLUSTRATING THE POWER OF THE FIGURES IN THE
GAME, AS COMPARED WITH THAT OF TROOPS IN THE
FIELD.
The inventor has endeavored to give to the figures of his game a
relative power which would, as nearly as practicable, accord with
that of the arms represented.
It will be observed that the Infantry of the Line moves one or two
squares in any direction, and can take either Infantry, Cavalry, or
Artillery; while the Cavalry can move one, two, or three squares, in
any direction, and can take either Cavalry, Infantry, or Artillery. We
know that in a country comparatively level, such as the board
represents, and presenting no obstacle except the river, Infantry or
Cavalry can move in any direction, and under some circumstances
either of those arms is good against the other. It is, of course,
necessary that there should be some distinction in the moves of the
different figures; and as Cavalry can move more rapidly than
Infantry, it has power to move three squares, while the Infantry of
the Line moves but two.
Perhaps it will be said by some that the Cavalry has the advantage
of the Infantry; but on placing a piece of Cavalry and a piece of
Infantry on the board, by cautious playing, it will be found almost
impossible to capture the Infantry with the single piece of Cavalry.
In the field, a regiment of Infantry, attacked by a regiment of
Cavalry, might easily escape altogether, or may repulse and capture
the regiment of Cavalry. The reverse may happen, and the Cavalry,
well handled, may defeat and capture the regiment of Infantry.
The Light Infantry moves one, two, or three squares, directly
forward, right or left obliquely, and one or two squares in any other
direction. The object of this is, chiefly, that there shall be a
distinguishing power between it and the Infantry of the Line.
Light Infantry in the field does, or should, have the advantage in
moving more rapidly; besides, it often has arms of a longer range,
and can be used more successfully when a sudden and rapid
movement is necessary.
The Artillery moves diagonally, and has a range of three squares on
the diagonals. It cannot move perpendicularly or laterally, therefore
has no power in those directions.
The Artillery can attain any position on the board, but cannot always
reach it directly, as does the Infantry and Cavalry, but, in many
instances, must make a detour to the right or left.
This distinguishing move is proper, inasmuch as a carriage cannot
always follow the course of a man or horse, yet it may reach any
point that they can in a country such as is represented by the board.
“Infantry or Cavalry cannot move in range of Artillery of the
opposing side, except when protected by Artillery of their side,” etc.
Artillery in the field may occupy a position, several approaches to
which it may so thoroughly command that it would be impracticable
for Infantry or Cavalry to take it, unassisted by Artillery, by either of
those approaches. Artillery would have to be brought up in order to
operate on the first-named Artillery, or some other line of attack
must be sought.
In the game, when one piece of Artillery is not protected by another,
there are four other points at which it may be assailed, namely, the
angles of the square. But when one piece of Artillery is supported by
another, neither can be taken by Cavalry or Infantry without the aid
of their Artillery.[C]
If a battery in the field occupied a position commanding thoroughly
all of the approaches to it, and another battery of the same side was
placed a short distance behind it, say in easy range, and
commanded the first battery, it would be very difficult for Cavalry or
Infantry to take the first-mentioned battery; and if they succeeded in
taking it, they could not easily, if at all, hold it while under the fire of
the supporting battery.
It may appear that the Artillery in the game has too much power;
but it must be remembered that a piece of Artillery of one side can
always take a piece of Artillery of the other side that is placed in its
range.
It often occurs in the field that one battery is brought up close under
the fire of another, to dislodge it; and if both are well served, one
must soon give way. See Plate 4, Figure 1.
The Wagon,[D] representing the Supply Train, moves diagonally, like
the Artillery, but only one or two squares at a time; for it should not
move so rapidly, therefore it does not move so far.
The player should be careful to guard the Wagon, for if it is captured
he loses the game.
An invading army entering a country where supplies cannot be
procured, must necessarily carry them with him; and should his train
be captured, with a good army in his front, he would be in great
danger of destruction.
SUGGESTIONS TO PLAYERS.
The attacking party should first determine upon a plan of attack.
Then proceed to arrange his figures in proper order for the
accomplishment of his plan. He should guard his lines, by throwing
forward Light Infantry and Cavalry; but will endeavor to avoid an
engagement until his order of attack is formed.
Unless to secure a very decided advantage, when once put in
operation his first plan should not be abandoned. The time lost in
arranging a new plan may be taken advantage of by the defending
party, who might assume the offensive and win the game.
The defending party, at the opening of the game, should throw
forward Light Infantry and Cavalry, to guard against any rapid
movement to take the Citadel, that may be attempted by the
attacking party with Cavalry and Light Infantry. This will also give
him time and space for moving up and arranging his figures in
proper order for defence.
In advancing the Cavalry and Light Infantry, great caution should be
observed in placing the figures on the squares most desirable for
checking the advance of the attacking party, while at the same time
they are not endangered.
No figure should be lost, if it can be avoided, at this stage of the
game; and no figure of the attacking party, except Artillery, should
be taken at the risk of the loss of one of the defending party.
Indeed, the defending side should continue to remain strictly on the
defence till a good opportunity is offered for an attack; as, for
instance, when the figures of the attacking party are scattered, and
not in supporting distance of each other.
It is, however, best not to cross the river until the attacking side is
weakened by a considerable loss.
Early in the game, an opportunity is seldom offered by a good
player, where it is safe for the defending party to cross the river with
a single figure; and it is only when the attacking party has been
weakened by the loss of three or four figures, that two or three
figures can be spared from the defence.
When such advance is determined upon, be always careful to leave
the Citadel as securely guarded as possible.
If the attacking party be an expert player, he will avoid an
engagement until he has arranged his figures in order for a grand
attack.
If it is discovered that he is thus engaged, every good opportunity to
annoy him, and prevent the formation of his plan, should be taken
advantage of by manœuvres, feints, and sometimes real attacks,
particularly at his Artillery: and his Artillery should be taken, if
possible, even if it involve the loss of one or two figures of the
defending party; for by the loss of one piece of his Artillery he will
be more crippled than by the loss of almost any two other figures.
The game requires the constant attention of the players. Often the
slightest mistake leads to defeat; therefore be careful that every
move is for a purpose.[E]
PLATE 1.
Explanation to Plate 1.
The board has one hundred and thirty-nine (139) squares that can
be occupied. It represents a comparatively level field, traversed by a
river impassable except at the fords and bridge.
In crossing the fords and bridge the figures move one, two, or three
squares, according to their power, as elsewhere on the board. The
short black lines indicate the entrances to the fords and bridge.
A figure cannot take, or check, another across the river, except at
the fords and bridge. For example, a figure on square 39 cannot
take, or check, a figure on square 54; nor can a figure on square 55
take, or check, a figure on square 40 or 48. (Squares are numbered
in Plate 4.)
ARRANGEMENT OF THE FIGURES ON COMMENCING THE GAME.
On the defending side, Cavalry occupies the first square on the right
of the line of nine squares. Artillery, the second. Infantry of the Line,
third, fourth, and fifth. Cavalry, sixth. Artillery, seventh. Infantry of
the Line, eighth and ninth. The Citadel, fifth square from the right of
the first line of eight squares. Light Infantry, first, third, fifth, and
seventh squares of the second row of seven squares.
The figures of the attacking side are arranged like those of the
defence, except that the Wagon is placed on the fifth square of the
line of nine squares, and a piece of Infantry of the Line on the first
square immediately in front of it.
Explanation to Plate 2.
Figure 1.—When two pieces of Artillery, of opposite sides, are thus
placed, no figure, except Artillery, can occupy the squares one or
two. If Artillery is placed on either square, it can be taken by the
Artillery of the other side.
Figure 2.—The figure on square nine cannot now move on square
seven, because “a figure cannot occupy the second or third square
from its Artillery, if that square is in range of the Artillery of the other
side.” But if the figure on square eight moves to square six, then the
figure on square nine could occupy square seven, for that square will
not then be covered by the Artillery on square five.
Should the figure on square eight be placed on square four, then the
Artillery on squares three and five do not protect each other; and in
that case the Cavalry on square ten could take either of them: or the
figure on square nine could take the Artillery on square five, and if it
were taken by the figure that was on square eight, now on square
four, then the Artillery on square three could be taken by the Cavalry
on square ten.
Figure 3.—In this case, if the Artillery on square fourteen is moved to
square fifteen, then the figures on squares sixteen and seventeen
would be in range of that piece, and must move (one at a time, of
course); or after one is moved, the Artillery on square eighteen may
be brought up on the next square to the remaining figure. For
example, if the figure on square sixteen be moved out of range,
then the Artillery on square eighteen could be moved to square
nineteen, to the support of the figure on square seventeen. If either
of the squares sixteen or seventeen should be occupied by Artillery,
of course that figure could take the Artillery moved to square fifteen.
Figure 4.—White figures representing the attacking party, and the
black figures the defending party.
The attacking party having the move, suppose the figure of Cavalry
on square twenty is moved to square twenty-one or twenty-two,
then the Artillery on square twenty-five is in danger of capture when
the attacking party has another move. Now the Artillery on square
twenty-five cannot move, leaving the figure on square twenty-four in
range of the Artillery on square twenty-three. If the player desires to
save his Artillery on square twenty-five, he might move the figure or
square twenty-four to square twenty-six, in order to protect his
Artillery from capture by the Cavalry moved to twenty-one or
twenty-two; and if that piece were taken by the Cavalry, he would
then have an opportunity to move his Artillery away.
PLATE 2.
PLATE 3.
Explanation to Plate 3.
Figure 1.—Shows how the Wagon may be taken.
Suppose the attacking party, having been repulsed with considerable
loss, is driven back from the river, pursued by the defending party,
and the figures of the two sides occupy the squares indicated in this
plate—the white figures representing the invading army, and the
black figures the defending army.
The defending party having the move, suppose the Artillery on
square fourteen is moved to square thirteen. Then the Cavalry on
square eight must move, as “no figure, except Artillery, can occupy
the first square next to the Artillery of its side, if it is also the first
square next to the Artillery of the other side.” If the Cavalry on
square eight is moved to square four, then the Artillery now on
square thirteen can take the Artillery on square five, and could be
taken by the Cavalry moved to square four, or the Infantry on square
six, or the Artillery on square two. Suppose it (the Artillery of
defending side having taken the Artillery on square five) is taken by
the Cavalry now occupying square four; then the Cavalry on square
eleven could take the Artillery on square two, and if it (the Cavalry of
defending side, moved to square two) is taken by the Cavalry of
attacking party now on square five, or the Infantry on square six,
then the Infantry of defending party, on square seven, could take
the Wagon on square one.
There are many other combinations for the capture of the Wagon.
Figure 2.—Shows how the Citadel may be taken.
Light Infantry, Infantry of the Line, or Cavalry of the attacking side,
can take the Citadel when it is within their range, if no figure
intervenes. For example, if the Artillery of the defending side is
placed as indicated in this figure (on squares eight and ten), a figure
of Cavalry or Light Infantry of the attacking party, on square one, or
a figure of Cavalry, Infantry of the Line, or Light Infantry, being on
square two, three, four, six, or seven, or a figure of Cavalry on
square five, could take the Citadel, if the attacking side had the
move. But suppose the defending party had the move, and a figure
of Cavalry or Infantry occupied square one or two, and either piece
of Artillery was placed on square nine; then the figure on square one
or two could not take the Citadel, but must move out of range of the
Artillery. If the Artillery on square ten is moved to square nine, then
the figure of the attacking side on square two could occupy square
three, and the next move could take the Citadel; or if the Artillery on
square eight were moved to square nine, then the figure on square
two could move to square seven, and on its next move could take
the Citadel; for though the Citadel would be in range of the Artillery
on square nine, that would not prevent its capture. A city may be
very well defended on one side, and yet might be easily taken at
another point.
Of course, the Cavalry and Infantry should co-operate with the
Artillery in defending the Citadel; and the player should endeavor to
prevent the attacking party from occupying any square from which it
could be taken.
Explanation to Plate 4.
Figure 1.—If the Artillery on square 21 is moved to square 22, the
Artillery on square 26 can take it, or move out of range. If the
Artillery on square 26 takes the Artillery moved to square 22, then it
could be taken by the Cavalry on square 20, or the Artillery on
square 23. If it, on the other hand, moves to square 27, it could be
taken by the Artillery on square 23; and if it is moved to square 24,
25, or 31, it could be taken by the figure on square 30. But if it is
not moved at all, then the Artillery moved to square 22 could take it
its next move.
Figure 2.—Shows how the figures of the game can be moved.
“Cavalry can be moved one, two, or three squares, in any direction,
at the discretion of the player,” provided the way is not obstructed by
another figure. For instance, the Cavalry on square 15 could not be
moved to square 12, because the figure on square 13 intervenes.
Nor, if the cavalry is moved to square 37, could it afterwards be
moved to square 35 or 34, while a figure occupied square 36. If the
Cavalry on square 15 is moved to square 37, it could afterwards be
moved to square 29, 21, or 12, or to 22 or 6, or to 30, 23, or 15, or
to 38, or to 45 or 53, or to 52, 65, or 76, or to 44, 51, or 57, etc.
“Light Infantry moves one, two, or three squares, directly forward,
right or left obliquely, and one or two squares in any other direction,
at the discretion of the player.” Now, if a piece of Light Infantry
occupies square 36, it could be moved directly forward to square 51,
64, or 75; left obliquely to square 43, 50, or 56; right obliquely, to
square 44, 52, or 59; to the left, to square 35 or 34; obliquely to the
left and rear, to square 28 or 20; to the rear, to square 21 or 5;
obliquely to the right and rear, to square 29 or 22; and to the right,
to square 37 or 38.
“Infantry of the Line moves one or two squares, at the discretion of
the player, in any direction.” If a piece of Infantry of the Line were
on square 13, it could be moved either to square 29, 44, 21, 28, 12,
5, 6, 14, 22, or 30, etc.
“Artillery moves diagonally, one, two, or three squares at a time, at
the discretion of the player.” A figure of Artillery being on square 9,
could be moved to square 1, 2, 17, 24, 31, 18, 26, or 34. If it were
moved to square 31, it could then be moved to square 39, 47, or 55,
or back to 24, 17, or 9, etc. If a piece of Artillery occupied square
51, no figure of the opposite party, except Artillery, could be placed
on square 58, 65, 73, 57, 63, 70, 43, 35, 27, 44, 37, or 30, unless
that square were next to the Artillery of the other side. See rules of
the game relative to Artillery, page 6.
“The Wagon can be moved one or two squares at a time, at the
discretion of the player.” The Wagon being on square 11, could be
moved to square 3, 4, 20, 28, 19, or 26, etc.
PLATE 4.
FOOTNOTES:
[A] When a piece is taken it is removed from the board, and the
piece by which it is taken is placed on the square which was
occupied by the captured piece.
[B] Whenever a piece of Artillery of one side is placed in range of
a piece of Artillery of the other side, the first piece can be taken
by the second. See Plate 4, Figure 1.
[C] The necessity of the co-operation of two or all of the different
arms represented, and in many instances their dependence on
the support of each other, is demonstrated in many real battles.
[D] The Wagon is captured in the same manner as other figures
are; it cannot be taken while under cover of a piece of Artillery of
its side.
[E] Success sometimes rewards a bold operator, in this game as
well as in war, who, ignoring all accepted theorems, ventures
upon a hazardous enterprise.
