Kurt Vonnegut's time as a POW in Dresden shaped his writing and anti-war sentiments, a stark contrast to his unexpected passion for a military board game.
Despite the irony of his war experiences, Vonnegut's board game, General Headquarters, reflected a complex relationship with warfare, illustrating a fast-paced battle format.
Vonnegut's first novel, Player Piano, received positive reviews but poor sales, pushing him to seek alternative income, leading to his board game project.
The game, General Headquarters, has recently become available to the public after years of delays, marking a significant yet unusual aspect of Vonnegut's legacy.
