IMDb Wikipedia
Retired hit man for a secret British intelligence agency works at a mundane office job for a boss he despises. He is called back into service and given the task of murdering a German businessman with an office next door to the one in which he works. He methodically learns the mans habits and might even be friends. They share a hobby in "war games", using miniatures to reenact famous battles. He plans to kill him during one such game, but the German is smart and suspects something is up. A decidedly British film, a bit stuffy, with a leaden pace, based on a TV series, and it shows. Catherine Schell is underutilized as the German man's wife.
