Theater Battle Model (TBM-68). Volume 7

Abstract

The task was to revise, redesign, and update an earlier JWGA war gaming manual, TBM-63, with the objective of providing the JWGA, US Unified and Specified Commands, and allied commands with a 'valid and economic' means of evaluating planned operations. TBM-68 is comprised of five major models reported on in seven volumes: Volume I, Theater War Game Model (TWGM); Volume II, Theater Quick Game Model (TQGM); Volume III, Division Operations Model (DOM); Volume IV, Counterguerrilla Warfare Model (CGWM); Volume V, Amphibious Warfare Model (AWM); Volume VI, a CO FRAM Supplement; and Volume VII, (this volume), Technical Report. These models permit war gaming across the spectrum of combat intensities and at various levels of aggregation.
