Description
The Craft of Wargaming: A Detailed Planning Guide for Defense Planners and Analysts This comprehensive guide provides a structured approach to wargaming, essential for defense planners and analysts. The authors offer a clear methodology for initiating, designing, developing, conducting, and analyzing wargames, allowing organizations to construct educational and experiential wargames. The book breaks down the wargame creation process into five distinct phases, providing key tasks to address for a successful outcome. To ensure a wargame's success, supervisors must set conditions and manage the team's efforts, while avoiding common pitfalls. The book demonstrates the use of the analytical wargaming framework to create relevant and useful planning wargames, as well as seminar wargames that can be effective when conducted rigorously. With practical exercises included, readers can experience the construction of an analytical wargame and apply the principles to their own work.
