My story will be less certain than history; but whoever wants to relive the past to study the similarities and analogies between human conflicts in the present is enough for me to find it useful. This War History of mine is a definite achievement and not an ostentatious work for a current audience.

4 PROLOGUE
I was inspired to build this work by reading Arnold Toynbee's book, A Study of History, and Trevor N. Dupuy's Future Wars. Between 2005 and 2007 I acquired a collection of board wargames in New York, and reading the book Wargame Design
published by Strategy & Tactics Magazine consolidated a Matrix for A Study of Military History
. Thus, from 2008, I was able to begin an analysis of the wars, campaigns, and battles of history of a particular time and / or civilization described in the Smithsonian Institute's Atlas of Military History. So far I have published the following series: I. Historical Simulation of the First Empire Wars
in 2010; VIII. World War I Historical Simulation
in 2011; II. Historical Simulation of the Wars in Classical Greece
in 2012; III. Historical Simulation of the Roman Wars
in 2016; and IV. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Medieval Era
in 2018. In 2014, to continue my work" A Study of
Military History , I read the book
Japanese and
5
Chinese Chess - The Science and Art of War and added a new book
The Study of Wars and Chess Games to my planned study, associating the foundations of chess games with the principles of Art and Science of War. In each book of the work a selected war, campaign, or battle is studied at any of the applicable decision levels, namely the Political, Strategic, Operational, Tactical, and Technical. Based on a summary of the historical fact I seek to highlight the decisive fact (s) causing the negative result (s) before playing the simulation through a board wargame - the actions on the
other side of the hill (from the enemy) are studied through a parallel electronic war game. In the simulation all the possibilities of the purpose of the study are completed when the past of history is analyzed on the basis of present theory and projected into the future or revived as a
what if schematic case. When we
play we will follow the maxim
WIN ALWAYS BUT WITH THE LOWEST
POSSIBLE COST".

BATTLE OF JUTLAND, 1916
We advise you to read our book North Sea Campaign, 1916. A German Historical Simulation
, published in the Clube de Autores (www.clubedeautores.com.br), for those who want a broader view of the scenery.
Note: names of people and places have been kept in their original languages unless there is a well-known English form. Titles or technical terms in other languages, when there is no better English translation, are written in italics and explained (the first time they appear).
The naval battle of Jutland (German: Skagerrakschlacht, or Schlacht von Skagerrak) was
fought between the British Navy Grand Fleet under
10
admiral John Jellicoe and the German Navy High Seas Fleet under vice admiral Reinhard Scheer.
Im 1: The area of operations.
The battle took place in extensive maneuvers, with three main phases (fighting between cover forces, battle lines, and night actions) on May 31 and June 1, 1916, in the North Sea west of the Jutland peninsula in Denmark.
Jutland was the largest naval battle in World War I and the third historic action between battleships (steel-armored battleships) following the battles of the Yellow Sea (1904) and Tsushima in
1905 during the Russo-Japanese War. It was also
11
the last major battle in which two squadrons exchanged direct fire between their line ships.
Im 2: Order of Battle.
The German Imperial Navy intended to attract and destroy part of the opponent, as its naval power was insufficient to openly confront all British naval power.
This operational strategy was part of a broader military strategy to break the British naval blockade
of Germany and allow its vessels access to the
12
Atlantic Ocean. On the other hand, the British Royal Navy followed a strategy of containing the German Navy, keeping it away from Britain and its shipping lanes.
Im 3: Battle map.
The Germans positioned advanced submarines on the most likely routes of British ships. However, they learned from interception of communications that a major operation of the German fleet was likely.
In addition, due to surface force preparation
problems, the original German planning had been
