Stoffel Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I have been to this exhibition and visited some of the workshops. Interesting one was about the use of commercial wargames for military training purposes. This was hosted by several people from many countries. The teamleader is Michael Woodman(us marine corps) Main discussion items were: To determine a bussinessmodel/best practice for the exploitations of games To determine a common requirement definition for games and the exploitation of game usergroups to support training and exercise. I was very surprised to see that there is a lot of understanding and a high degree of cooperation among all NATO members,a huge step forward. Been an interesting discussion,where I was able to have some input too. Biggest surprise to me was that I met the Australian army representative for battlefront(tacops and Combat mission) Its a small world after all Henk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoffel Posted May 1, 2005 Author Share Posted May 1, 2005 No. The countries representatives told what programmes they used for their army. There were no actual showings of games. Only talking about what/how/where they can be implemented ass additional training tools. But I do have told them how my tactical skills have improved by using Tacops 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrcar Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 G'Day Henk! yes TACOPS was mentioned, it was also mentioned in the open presentation on the outcomes from last years workshop (they preseted a copy of my slide with the products we have found useful). Copies were given out last year (as per our agreement) but not at this meeting. The aim of the meeting was to identify the Terms of Reference for the group, and to talk about the next workshop which will be in Oct in Sweden.

Stoffel Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 Hi Rob, Do you allready miss my country? It was nice meeting you ,we should do a game one of these days. I missed that first part,I also did not know that copies were given to the members. I do know the dutch army has several games,including tacops(given by me) I am not sure what the future will bring for the dutch workgroup though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
