NEW CLASS: Team Leader II

If you’ve followed me for any period of time, you’re familiar with the Tactical Decision Games (TDGs) that I put out on Tuesdays.

I now offer the chance to learn and experience the troopContinue reading “NEW CLASS: Team Leader II”

TDG 4 Recap and Analysis

This week’s TDG finds us in a civilian QRF action, a modern equivalent of the Minutemen of the 18th century. Our friend Kevin is under attack in his home, and it falls upon us to save him. Nobody else is coming, it is up to us. Fortunately, our group has planned for this possibility andContinue reading “TDG 4 Recap and Analysis”

TDG 4: Alamo! Alamo! Alamo!

TDG 3 Recap and Analysis

In this week’s TDG, we are greatly outnumbered and outgunned. A company of troops has set up just a few miles from our camp and is most likely looking for us. Fortunately, we still have time to take action. The mission I gave was for you to conduct a security patrol to locate and attackContinue reading “TDG 3 Recap and Analysis”

Support Weapons Class Review November 19-20, 2022 by “Jake”

“It’s all about force multipliers” BLUF – this was a well crafted course that will help team leaders or individual members maximize their potential by integrating two specialized weapons/positions within their teams.  It won’t turn someone into an expert in the application of either the automatic rifle or the anti material rifle but it willContinue reading “Support Weapons Class Review November 19-20, 2022 by “Jake””

TDG 2 Recap and Analysis

The situation in TDG 2: Neighborhood Defense finds us tasked with organizing our untrained neighbors into a defensive force to keep out looters and gangs during a partial collapse. Although not as exciting as conducting a raid on a commie roadblock, this scenario is nonetheless a very realistic one that you may find yourself in someday.Continue reading “TDG 2 Recap and Analysis”

TDG 1 Recap and Analysis

TDG 1: Antifa Roadblock presents a relatively simple tactical problem, intended as a primer on this sort of mental exercise. We have (seemingly) solid intelligence on the enemy’s disposition, the element of surprise, just 4 men, and a very flexible timeline to work with. And yet, even with a simple exercise like this, there areContinue reading “TDG 1 Recap and Analysis”
