This time, however, the battles were without loss of blood and 1 ves. On the upper floors of the Union, in rooms meagerly fur- -. r nished with wooden tables and uncomfortable chairs, men, women and children recreate history in the form of simulation games. Be- sides the bloodless World War II, history lovers and war-buffs alike return to the past with simulation games including the me- dieval "Dungeons and Dragons." THIS WORLD WAR II is a board game. Oin a huge map di- vided into hexagons equaling a distance of 33 kilometers, tiny cardboard squares representing men and machinery move about. " Dungeons and Dragons, is played with figurines, a floor plan of a dungeon and six-sided and 20-sided dice. "You've got to be a buff of history or a frustrated Napoleon or Adolph Hitler to play," gamesman John Finley said of the - simulation game players. "But the Napoleons and Hitlers are easief to beat. They take chances -they will fight to the last man instead of running away." Finley, a student o military history, is not a frustrated Hitler but rather, a man of peace. He is reluctant to call himself a pacifist, however as he is willing to defend himself or another person physically although he opposes war. "I WISH in a way that the war had never happened," he said. "I'd like to see an end to conflict. But man being the animal he is - I don't mean that in a derogatory way - he has a ten- dency towards conflict." Finley sees simulation games as capable of teaching their Doily Photo by CHRISTINA SCHNEIDER players valuable lessons. SIMULATION game players huddle over the "Dungeons and Dragons" game board waiting to see See BATTLING, Page 10 who will be the first to turn become a magic-user or any of the other mystical roles of the game.
