Now scanning: “Norspiel,” rules book for a wargame created at Northrop Aircraft in 1957. Not the usual sort of thing I go after, but it seems interesting. I wasn’t able to find anything online about it other than the ebay listing, so it may be new to the wargaming world. I’m not a wargamer (not since about 1987), so I’m no expert, but it seems a lot simpler than, say, Dungeons and Dragons or Warhammer 40K.
This will be added to the next APR Patreon/subscriber catalog to be voted on for a monthly reward. If this sort of thing is of interest, please check out:

looks like there is a board of some type, do any of these games still exist?
I wonder if some gaming company might make them, just to say they did..assuming the copyright for the game itself has expired or been abandoned?
The game as shown in the photos in the report are clearly hand-made. I suspect only one was made. Not sure if it was copyrighted back in the day.

just figured you’d want to know.
It works for me. Maybe an issue with your link to it, or perhaps a momentary glitch.
