Wargaming and Analysis. Presentation for MORS Special Meeting
Abstract
Our starting point, of course, has to be wargaming itself. What is it? Too often, people in this business use the term loosely, to describe everything from the activity of thousands of real troops and vehicles maneuvering across hundreds of square miles, to the largely intellectual activity of a couple of guys crouched over a paper map and pushing around tiny cardboard squares. What I am going to be talking about here are REAL wargames, not field exercises, analytical models, or computer simulations without players (what I call cazwhips). Real wargames involve human beings making decisions and dealing with the consequences of those decisions, but not the action of actual forces.
