Welcome to CLUE CHAIN

The idea is to start with a cryptic clue - set by me this week.

The first correct solver, judged by the setter, is then invited to offer their clue and so on.

The person who solves the first clue starts the next CLUE CHAIN (Thursday 16th Feb. around noon).

Once you have solved and then set a clue you cannot enter again, although you can still comment.

30 min time limit per clue and if not solved the setter must declare the clue 'open' and everybody can play again.

Game closes 18.00 GMT

This week's opening clue is:

Tales of war maybe, that don't correspond? (11,7)

I've taken 'huss' out of 'chips arranged thus' and ended up with 'parched grain'. Am I completely on the wrong track?

Even the above is wrong! Time for a hint?

Apologies for delay. Connection problems.
Think order.
