    Default Will be there....

    I'll be interested to see how this shapes up--wargaming helping us understand future warfare/security challenges. Anybody been able to tackle so-called "hybrid warfare" in a game?

    Bloodtree Rebellion by GDW took a swing at it, but more in the classic guerrilla sense (also a science fiction setting). Last time I was playing it, we had tweaked the rules fairly significantly, but I have no idea where those tweaks are .

    Combat Mission Shock Force has a regular and irregular enemy on the board at the same time, so that's as close to Hybrid as anyone can get in reality.

    - The job of the British Army out here is to kill or capture Communist Terrorists in Malaya.
    - If we can double the ratio of kills per contact, we will soon put an end to the shooting in Malaya.

    Jon Compton and Joe Miranda will both be there and will certainly be able to discuss Battle For Baghdad with you.
