We are everywhere
@CNN just got rare access to Ukraine’s deep-strike drone command — and what they saw has no parallel in modern warfare.
No central headquarters. No single factory. No fixed target Russia can hit.
“We have no common centre. We are everywhere.”
Dozens of long-range drones tracked in real time on a single screen. AI-assisted software coordinating thousands of simultaneous airborne assets. Decoy drones flooding Russian radar — each one looking exactly like a cruise missile, forcing Russia to burn through its shrinking air defence stockpile chasing ghosts.
Ukraine didn’t build a drone programme. It built one that cannot be destroyed.

🔥 Just because a model has a "physics engine" does NOT make it a good wargaming engine. Physics engines can be helpful if done right, but fundamentally, a game is about how player decisions are informed, engaged with, and implemented within the game - at the right granularity.🧵
With the Operational Wargaming System (Barrick), DIGICAT (NIWC PAC/MCU), and my own Littoral Commander series -- the US Marine Corps is leading the way with educational #wargaming.

Our PME Game Design playlist now contains seven videos, offering more than ten hours of recorded insight. If you’re a military professional at a PME institution and want to "bring in a wargame," this channel is made for you. https://t.co/QK2pLCpVxX
It is officially happening! I have already secured chapter proposals from over 19+ authors -- reflecting a wide variety of organizations, such as the Philippines Marine Corps, Canadian Navy, British Army, Australian Defence Force, Colombian Navy, French Army, and more! #wargaming
I'm often the one teaching others about #wargaming or leading my #wargames for others. So it was an immense joy to spend a week with colleagues from across Europe to learn new games together, share our methodologies, and discuss our profession and how to advance it forward. 🎲 💥
Join us for our second PME webinar this week! On Thursday at 1500 CET (Berlin time), catch the debut of Multi-Domain Brigade Operations. This exciting game transforms Seb Bae's Littoral Commander for intense land-based Close Combat. Watch it here: https://t.co/JfdA7DM0Gh
In a world of rapid geopolitical and technological change, how can NATO stay ahead?
The Audacious Training initiative is improving upon current military training environments to better reflect real-world situations by modernizing exercise scenario design and embracing AI to challenge our Allies. The goal is simple: help NATO forces find ways to make adversaries think twice before taking hostile action, sharpen crisis response, and win in conflict: https://t.co/RfSwZFmUHs

Ungarn unter Orbán gefährdet mit seiner Blockadepolitik nicht nur die Solidarität mit der Ukraine, sondern die sicherheitspolitische Handlungsfähigkeit ganz Europas. Ungarn profitiert seit Jahren massiv von Mitteln der Europäische Union und tritt gleichzeitig ihre gemeinsamen Werte mit Füßen. Orbán ist der Trittbrettfahrer Europas. Wer systematisch europäische Beschlüsse sabotiert und autoritäre Narrative bedient, darf nicht weiter ungehindert am Ratstisch sitzen.
Es ist deshalb höchste Zeit, Artikel 7 EUV konsequent zu aktivieren. Wenn wie durch Orbáns Ungarn eine eindeutige Gefahr für die Grundwerte der EU besteht, muss das Stimmrecht im Rat entzogen werden. Die EU darf sich nicht länger von einem einzelnen Regierungschef erpressen lassen. Europas Sicherheit, Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Glaubwürdigkeit stehen auf dem Spiel. Sie sind nicht verhandelbar.
Played Littoral Commander with the team today. Solid reps & good discussion.
A useful reminder of how much shaping happens across domains, and just how valuable joint enablers are once you start thinking beyond the land fight.

KNDS Deutschland hat heute bei einem offiziellen „Rollout“ erstmals den Kampfpanzer Leopard 2 A8 der Fachöffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Es handelt sich um den ersten für die Bundeswehr bestimmten Kampfpanzer, der seit 1992 komplett neu gebaut wurde.

The German Army's "Multi Domain Brigade Operations" #wargame is an adaptation of my "Littoral Commander" #wargame system. They are leveraging augmented reality to facilitate player planning and an AI avatar to help players learn the rules. 🎲 💥
