This
scenario is part of the wider battle of
Cēsis (Võnnu in Estonian, Wenden in German). Details of the
battle can be found at the section of the site devoted to Latvia
1919.
This is the right wing of that battle, where Reich German Freikorps (masquerading as Baltic Landeswehr) attacked the Estonian defenders. This scenario is very much a "hide and seek" exercise. The Estonian defender is out-numbered quite badly, but is very hard for the German to locate. |

Troop valuesI
used my amended Red Actions!
values for the
Freikorps (in the wargames section of the site).
As usual I did not tell the players what deviations from this I made for their own troops, let alone the enemy. In fact I made none. |
Table-top versionI'm
not sure that this scenario
converts particularly easily to a table-top game (or at least, to a
half-way balanced one). However, since these are basically historical
forces in historical terrain, it does at least give an idea of the
actual nature of the fighting at Cēsis – very small forces in
quite broken terrain.
