Ideally, information should be displayed at the time it is required and removed from the board when not required. On a manual war game board which uses pins and flags for the display of vehicles and weapons it is impractical to use transparent overlays. Also the use of marking pencils adds to map clutter and is not well suited to a moving battle. To overcome these difficulties a system of projecting coloured transparencies on a vertical mapboard has been developed. OTHER PROBLEr
This was done by applying the known errors of observed fire to the individual points representing the guns, by assuming that the MPI could only be placed within 25 metres of the target centre, and by further assuming that the spread of rounds about the MPI of the battery would be a normal distribution. It was decided that a battery could only engage targets of platoon size, or affect a platoon size portion of a larger target. When additional batteries are superimposed an the same target the zone of dispersion is increased slightly to allow for the error tobe expected when more than one MPI is adjusted onto the target centre.
