Description
Philip Sabin explores the theory and practice of conflict simulation as a topic in its own right, drawing on his thirty years of experience in designing wargames and teaching.
This book sets conflict simulation alongside more familiar techniques such as game theory and operational analysis, explaining analytical and modelling techniques involved. It also teaches you how to design your own simulations of conflicts of your choice, with eight simple illustrative simulations of specific historical conflicts included.
