US Army wargame maps
While searching the U. S. National Archives, I came across 4 digitized maps that were made specifically for Kriegsspiels. There is a map of Gettysburg at a 1:5280 scale in 140 sheets plus an index sheet, as well as a similar map of Fort Leavenworth. I can also find a 1:5000 scale map of Camp Sevier, a WW1 training camp in South Carolina. There’s also a larger map of Fort Leavenworth in two sheets, who’s scale I am having trouble identifying. Additionally, there are many maps of ground maneuvers. The 1:5280 maps of Gettysburg and Fort Leavenworth seem to be the ones referred to in the U.S army problem books, such as Farrand Sayre’s map maneuvers. I’m currently working on rescaling them to 1:7500, and will post the rescaled versions in this thread as I finish them

Re: US Army wargame maps
Some interesting maps there. These could easily be used for a Reisswitz kriegsspiel. Thanks for posting the links.
